Best Roasted Cauliflower Parsnip And Leek Filling For Crepes Recipes

SALTED CARAMEL ROASTED PARSNIPS AND CAULIFLOWER

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas 6. Drizzle a generous glug of oil into a large roasting tin. Add the cauliflower and parsnips, season with salt and pepper, then toss together to coat the veg in the oil.
• Roast for 30-35 minutes until starting to brown. Remove the veg from the oven. Drizzle the caramel sauce over the top of the veg, toss to coat and sprinkle with a little more sea salt. Return to the oven for 15 minutes until golden and cooked through. Serve scattered with the parsley.

ROASTED PARSNIP MEDLEY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a small pot, combine the 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons reserved garlic-pepper oil and the lemon pepper seasoning. Heat over low heat until just warm. Remove from the heat and let sit for 10 minutes to allow the lemon pepper seasoning to infuse the oil.
• Cut the large thick stems off the head of cauliflower. Break the head up into small florets. Slice the potatoes and parsnips in approximately 1-inch thick pieces. Place all the vegetables into a large bowl, add the half the seasoned oil, and toss to coat. Add the remaining oil and toss again. Transfer to 2 baking sheets and roast until lightly brown and tender, 35 to 40 minutes. If the vegetables start to brown too quickly, loosely cover with foil. Transfer to a serving bowl.

CAULIFLOWER GRATIN WITH LEEKS AND WHITE CHEDDAR

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Slice cauliflower head lengthwise into 1/2-inch thick slices, including the core and leaves. (Some smaller bits will fall away: That's fine. You'll use them as well.)
• Drizzle some olive oil onto the bottom of a 2-quart baking dish. (An oval, square or rectangular dish will all work.) Layer about a third of the cauliflower along the bottom, and about a third of the leeks. Season with salt and pepper, and repeat until all of the cauliflower and leeks are used. (Don't worry about perfectly layering them.) Season with salt and pepper and drizzle cream over. Scatter cheese on top, and season again with salt and pepper. Lightly cover with foil and place in the oven.
• Bake until cauliflower is nearly tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove foil and continue to bake until cream has thickened and reduced nearly completely and the top is golden brown and crisp, 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool slightly before eating.

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER, PARSNIP AND LEEK FILLING FOR CREPES

Steps:

• Place a roasting pan in oven and preheat to 425 degrees. Place cauliflower in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, mix 3 tablespoons butter, the olive oil, pepper and mustard. Drizzle about two-thirds of mixture over cauliflower; mix well. Sprinkle with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt.
• Spread cauliflower evenly in heated roasting pan and bake for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, halve leeks almost to root end, leaving root end in one piece. In a large bowl, combine leeks, parsnips, remaining 1 teaspoon salt and remaining butter-oil mixture. Mix well. Turn cauliflower over in pan, then add parsnips and leeks. Roast for 20 minutes, turning vegetables halfway through. Reduce heat to 325 degrees and roast until golden brown and tender, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Transfer vegetables to a cutting board and chop into 1/4- to 1/2-inch pieces. Set aside. In a medium bowl, combine egg yolks and cream or milk and set aside.
• In a small saucepan, bring broth to a simmer. In another small saucepan over medium-low heat, whisk remaining 3 tablespoons butter with flour. Continue whisking for about 3 minutes; mixture should bubble gently but not brown. Remove from heat and slowly add broth, whisking to incorporate. Continue until all broth is used and sauce is smooth and creamy. Return to low heat and cook until slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Whisk into bowl of egg yolks and cream. Return to pan over medium-low heat just until steaming, 2 to 3 minutes; do not boil. Reserve 1 cup sauce for garnishing filled crepes. Add chopped vegetables to remaining sauce.

BUCKWHEAT CREPES

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine flours and salt. Add eggs and mix well. Gradually add milk and 1 1/4 cups water, whisking vigorously to prevent lumps. Add butter and whisk until smooth. (Alternatively, these ingredients may be combined in a blender and processed for 1 minute.) Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Stir well before using.
• Place a baking sheet in oven and heat to 175 degrees. Dampen a dish towel with warm water and set aside. Using a brush or paper towel, lightly oil a 6- to 8-inch lightweight skillet or crepe pan. Place over medium heat. When pan is warm, lift from heat and wait 3 seconds, then pour in 1/4 cup crepe batter while tilting pan so batter coats bottom evenly. Return to heat. Cook until lightly browned underneath, about 2 minutes. Turn and cook other side about 1 minute. (First crepes may tear and need to be discarded.) Place finished crepes on baking sheet in oven and cover with damp towel.
• To fill crepes, remove from oven. Raise oven temperature to 350 degrees. Place one crepe on a plate (replace towel on others), and spread about 3 tablespoons filling across one end. Roll end just enough to enclose mixture. Fold in two sides of crepe, then continue to roll. Place filled crepes in a baking dish just large enough to hold them. Pour a portion of filling's sauce over top and place in oven 15 to 20 minutes, or until warmed through. Serve immediately.
