Zucchini Potato And Fennel Stew Recipes

POTATO AND ZUCCHINI FRITTATA

Steps:

• Bring the potatoes with enough cold water to cover to a boil in a small saucepan. Cook, over medium-high heat, until the potatoes are tender, 6 to 8 minutes; drain and pat dry.
• Whisk together the eggs, egg whites, cilantro, salt, and hot sauce in a large bowl.
• Preheat the oven broiler to medium-high.
• Heat the oil in a medium (10-inch) ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent, 2 minutes. Add zucchini and cook until tender, about 6 minutes more. Add the cooked potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes begin to brown slightly, about 4 minutes more.
• Evenly pour the egg mixture over the vegetable mixture. Cook, over medium heat, tilting the pan and lifting the edges with a rubber spatula to let the uncooked egg flow underneath. Sprinkle with the cheese and the bacon, if using. Broil, 5 to 7 inches from the heat, until the eggs puff and are just set and the cheese is golden brown, about 5 minutes. Remove carefully to a plate, or serve in wedges directly from the skillet.

POTATO-FENNEL GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Butter the inside of a 10-by-15-by-2-inch (10-cup) baking dish.
• Remove the stalks from the fennel and cut the bulbs in half lengthwise. Remove the cores and thinly slice the bulbs crosswise, making approximately 4 cups of sliced fennel. Saute the fennel and onions in the olive oil and butter on medium-low heat for 15 minutes, until tender.
• Peel the potatoes, then thinly slice them by hand or with a mandoline. Mix the sliced potatoes in a large bowl with 2 cups of cream, 2 cups of Gruyère, salt, and pepper. Add the sauteed fennel and onion and mix well.
• Pour the potatoes into the baking dish. Press down to smooth the potatoes. Combine the remaining 2 tablespoons of cream and 1/2 cup of Gruyère and sprinkle on the top. Bake for 1 1/2 hours, until the potatoes are very tender and the top is browned and bubbly. Allow to set for 10 minutes and serve.

ZUCCHINI AND POTATO BAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• In a medium baking pan, toss together the zucchini, potatoes, red bell pepper, garlic, bread crumbs, and olive oil. Season with paprika, salt, and pepper.
• Bake 1 hour in the preheated oven, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are tender and lightly brown.

ZUCCHINI SQUASH AND POTATO STEW

Steps:

• Cut off and discard the ends of the squash.
• Cut squash in half length-wise and slice into 1" pieces.
• Peel the potatoes; cut each in quarters and and then slice into 1" pieces.
• Peel the onion; cut in half parallel to the root end and then into quarters, so all veggies are about the same size.
• Finely chop the garlic.
• Heat a 3-4 quart pot over a high flame and add oil when hot; lower flame to medium high, then add onion and garlic, stirring until onion is translucent.
• Add squash and potatoes. Saute until potatoes are somewhat softened.
• Add tomato sauce and water or broth. Stir in oregano, salt and pepper and mix well.
• Heat to a simmer; lower flame to medium and cover with the lid a bit ajar.
• Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are fork tender, and the sauce has reduced somewhat.
