Karolina Kurkova's Czech Potato Pancakes
Greek-Style Kohlrabi Pie or Gratin With Dill and Feta
If you don’t want to bother with the phyllo dough or you want to cut down on carbs or calories, make this as a gratin (see below). It’s delicious either way. Because of the moisture in the kohlrabi, your phyllo will need to be recrisped in a low oven if the pie sits for any length of time.
Panelle
You may have eaten panelle served as “chickpea fries,” and that’s not a bad name for them. You make a thick porridge of chickpea flour, spread it evenly into a pan and let it cool. As with thick polenta (which this resembles), you can then cut the paste into any shape you like — diamonds, squares or French fries, and fry until golden. They are not only among the easiest things to fry (there’s very little spattering), but they’re also gorgeous, and better than “real” fries in just about every regard.
Mandarin Rice Stuffing With Chestnuts and Shiitake Mushrooms
The brown rice is cooked in vegetable broth to infuse it with more flavor. It needs to be cooked in advance and chilled before stir-frying. Hot rice is too moist to stir-fry and results in gummy rice. You can buy cooked chestnuts in a jar, but I prefer the taste of fresh roasted chestnuts.
Picnic Coleslaw
Greek Cabbage Pie with Dill and Feta
A favorite winter pie in the northern regions of Greece, this is a bit time consuming to make, but worth every minute. Serve it as a vegetarian main course at your next dinner party.
Pumpkin-Squash
Pommes Bouillies a l'Aneth (Boiled potatoes with dill)
Endive and Potato Gratin With Walnuts
Cooked endive is comfort food, and like raw endive in a salad, it goes very well with walnuts and walnut oil.
White Chocolate And Chestnut Souffle
Spinach and Acorn Squash Purees
Sicilian Cauliflower and Black Olive Gratin
The affinity that cauliflower has with black olives is seen throughout the Mediterranean, from Tunisia to Sicily to Apulia to Greece. This simple gratin from Sicily is traditionally made with green cauliflower, but the result is equally delicious and almost as pretty with the easier-to-obtain white variety.
Fluffy Buttermilk-Mashed Potatoes
Buttermilk and a smidge of baking soda work together here to create an impossibly fluffy potato side dish. We like to finish ours with an extra pat of butter that melts into a golden pool while we set the table.
Two-Potato Gratin
This simple recipe allows the richness of potatoes and cream to shine through unadorned, and it is easily assembled. A gratin dish is not necessary; try using a cast-iron skillet. (For everything you need to know to make perfect potatoes, visit our potato guide.)
Chowchow
Lean but Good Potatoes
Here, olive oil replaces butter for a healthier twist on classic mashed potatoes. Sautéed garlic and rosemary add flavor. Don't forget to season generously with salt and pepper.
Roasted Cauliflower With Tahini-Parsley Sauce
This Middle Eastern sauce goes wonderfully with foods other than roasted cauliflower. It’s traditionally served with falafel and keftes, fish, salads, deep-fried vegetables — or just with pita bread.
Roasted Squash With Cornbread, Sage and Chestnut Stuffing
Gratin of Pumpkin And Potatoes
Pasta With Chestnuts And Mushrooms
Butternut Squash and Mushroom Wellington
Butternut squash coated in maple syrup, and soft, earthy mushrooms are sautéed then wrapped in a crisp, flaky puff pastry in this recipe. It's softly sweet and bursting with autumnal flavors, with goat cheese providing some soft, tangy creaminess. Try it on a chilly night, paired with a glass of white wine.
Onion Ragu With Penne
Sweet Potato, Pumpkin and Apple Puree
This mixture of sweet potatoes, savory pumpkin and tart apples is a variation on my sweet potato puree with apples. For the best flavor, I suggest you make it a day ahead.
