Sweet Potato and Toasted Pecan Grilled Cheese
Because sweet potatoes are a staple of most Thanksgiving tables, Chef Mauro felt it was important to make them part of a leftover sandwich. The combination of melted cheese, toasted pecans and mashed sweet potatoes creates a gooey treat that will quickly become a favorite holiday tradition.
Spinach and Bacon Tartine
In Paris’s small neighborhood cafés and bistros, kitchens are extremely small, consisting often of no more than a small wooden cutting board and a wall mounted heavy-duty toaster oven. At lunchtime a hot open-faced tartine — bubbling with fragrant cheese — is a popular menu choice. Similar to a piece of pizza, a tartine is constructed from a thick slice of rustic bread, lightly toasted. A savory topping and some good French cheese precede a few minutes of browning under the broiler. This tartine has a light smear of Dijon mustard, wilted spinach, bacon lardons and the bold-flavored cheese called Raclette, which melts in a spectacular way. If you can’t get Raclette, substitute Gruyère or Emmenthaler. Accompanied by a green salad, it makes a quick light meal, or you may cut the tartine into small wedges to serve with drinks.
Soft-Shell Crab Poor-Boy
Ask your fishmonger to clean the crabs for you, because though the process is a quick and easy one, it's not for the squeamish. There's not much cooking here. Sometimes crabs spatter, so it's best to fry them in oil that's not smoking hot.
Herbed Omelet Wraps With Rice Noodles and Duck
Parsley Pesto
A twist on the typical basil recipe, this pesto combines flat-leaf parsley and some mint. It’s marvelous on sandwiches and pizza and, if you thin it out with a little pasta water, it’s a great addition to spaghetti. Shower the dressed bowl with Parmesan and serve.
Mushroom Melt With Parsley Pesto, Kale and Arugula
A vegetarian sandwich that is light on the melt and generous with the greens. This vegetarian sandwich can be made in the oven, a toaster or in a panini grill. I use the toaster.
