Sweet Potato And Leek Custard Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium heat. Add the leeks and 2 tablespoons water; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender but not browned, about 8 minutes. Add the thyme and then the cream and cook until the liquid thickens, about 2 minutes; set aside.
• In a 2-quart shallow baking dish, arrange the sweet potato in overlapping layers. Spread the leek mixture evenly over the potatoes. Arrange the apples in an overlapping layer on the leeks. Brush the apples with the remaining tablespoon of oil and sprinkle with the Parmesan. Cover tightly with aluminum foil and bake 40 minutes. Uncover and continue to bake until the Parmesan is golden brown and melted, about 20 minutes more. The tip of a paring knife should easily pierce the apples and potatoes. Let cool 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 325°F (165°C). Brush 8 individual ramekins or a 3-quart (3-l) baking dish with canola oil. In a fry pan over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Cook the leeks, stirring, until translucent, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the sherry, scraping up the browned bits; simmer until evaporated. In a saucepan over medium-high heat, bring the cream, garlic, hot sauce and coriander to a simmer. Off the heat, let stand for 5 minutes. In a food processor, combine the cream mixture, sweet potato puree, the 4 oz. (125 g) cheese, salt and pepper and pulse to combine. Add the eggs one at a time and pulse to combine. Add the leeks and pulse to combine. Spoon the sweet potato mixture into the prepared ramekins or baking dish. Bake until the potatoes are browned on top and barely jiggle in the center, 20 to 25 minutes for the ramekins and 40 to 50 minutes for the baking dish. Top each portion with scoop of Brebis cheese and apple-onion jam. Alternatively, top with about 1 Tbs. apple-onion jam and sprinkle with Singing Brook cheese. Serves 8.
