1 tsp. kosher salt, divided, plus more
1 large sweet potato (about 1 lb.), halved lengthwise ½ fennel bulb (about 6 oz.), thinly sliced, plus fronds (for serving; optional) ½ small red onion, thinly sliced ¼ cup apple cider, coconut, or unseasoned rice vinegar 3 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil, divided ½ lb. ground lamb (or beef, chicken or tempeh) 1 tsp. ground cumin ½ tsp. ground cinnamon 1 tsp. Aleppo-style pepper, plus more for serving 8 oz. wild mushrooms, sliced into ¼" slices ½ cup plain full-fat yogurt 2 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice ¼ cup mint leaves Preparation Fill a large pot with about 1" water; season with a big pinch of salt. Set a steamer basket in pot. Cover pot and bring water to a boil. Add potato, cover, and steam until fork-tender, 20–25 minutes. Meanwhile, toss sliced fennel, onion, vinegar, and ¼ tsp. salt in a medium bowl. Let sit, tossing occasionally, at least 10 minutes and up to 30. Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add lamb, cumin, cinnamon, 1 tsp. pepper, and ½ tsp. salt and press into an even layer. Cook, undisturbed, until well browned on the bottom, about 4 minutes. Break up into pieces with a spatula and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, 1–2 minutes. Push mixture to one side of skillet and add mushrooms in an even layer; season with salt. Cook, undisturbed, until beginning to brown and soften, 3 minutes, then stir together with lamb mixture. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are golden brown, about 2 minutes more. Whisk yogurt, lemon juice, and remaining 1 Tbsp. oil and ¼ tsp. salt in a small bowl. Divide potato halves between bowls and mash slightly with a fork. Top with yogurt sauce and mushroom mixture. Lift fennel and onion out of vinegar with your hands and scatter over bowls; discard vinegar. Top with mint, fennel fronds (if using), and pepper. This recipe is easily adapted to use whatever veggies you have on hand! If you can get some eggs from one of our market neighbors, you’ll be set. Feel free to switch out the rice for other grains as well, or cauliflower.
RICE 3/4 cup short-grain brown or white rice, rinsed 1 ½ cups water 1 pinch sea salt VEGGIES + EGG 2-3 Tbsp sesame oil, DIVIDED (toasted for more flavor, untoasted works, too) 3 cups packed mixed vegetables (such as finely shredded carrot, thinly sliced zucchini, or greens) 1 heaping cup bean sprouts (if you can’t find, sub more mixed vegetables) 2 stalks green onion, sliced on an angle 2 cloves garlic, minced 2 Tbsp soy sauce 2 large eggs FOR SERVING 2-4 Tbsp Korean Gochujang Sauce Kimchi (optional) Toasted or raw sesame seeds (optional) To a medium saucepan, add cooking water, rinsed rice, and salt. Heat over high heat and bring to a boil, reduce heat to simmer, and cover. Cook for 15-20 minutes or until water is absorbed and rice is tender and fluffy. Keep covered and set aside. While the rice finishes cooking, heat a large skillet over medium heat (stainless steel or cast iron are best). Once hot, add 1 tsp of sesame oil or enough to just coat the pan. Once the oil is hot, add vegetables one type at a time and cook in batches until lightly browned (1-2 minutes), seasoning each with a little minced garlic and a dash of soy sauce. Cooking in batches allows you to arrange vegetables separately over the rice for visual effect. Add more oil to the pan as needed between vegetables. Arrange cooked vegetables in individual piles on a serving plate and cover gently to keep warm until serving. To cook eggs heat the same pan over medium heat. Once hot, add a little more oil (sesame or otherwise), and carefully crack eggs. For sunny-side up (our preference), cover briefly with a lid to steam for 1 minute, then remove lid and continue cooking until whites are cooked but yolks are still runny. Turn off heat and set aside (uncovered). Wonderful recipe for many root vegetable. Try with turnips, carrots, or sweet potatoes.
1 pound beets peeled and cut into wedges 2 sprigs of thyme 3 shallots quartered 4 cloves of garlic 3 tablespoons unsalted butter 3 teaspoons honey 1 cup water plus more if necessary Kosher salt Combine all the ingredients plus a nice large pinch of salt in a sauté pan or saucepan over medium-high heat. Cover with a tightly fitting lid, bring to a simmer, and cook, adding water by the tablespoonful if pan is dry before vegetables are done. You will want the vegetable fork tender, which will take about 20 minutes. Once the vegetables are fork tender, remove the lid and cook until liquid evaporates completely, about 5 minutes. Toss the vegetables occasionally, until beautifully glazed for about 5 minutes. Finish it up with 1 Tbsp. water to deglaze pan and coat the beats with the glaze. Season with salt. The best part of this salad is that you can really use any extra veggies that you have. Seriously anything you've got hiding in the fridge will work. If you don’t want to poach the eggs, just top with your favorite style egg.
4 cups vegetables (you pick!), cut into large chunks 1⁄4 cup olive oil Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper 1 garlic clove, grated Small pinch of smoked paprika 4 large eggs 1 pound salad mix 4 tablespoons Whole Grain Mustard Vinaigrette Flaky sea salt (for serving) Preheat oven to 450°. Toss vegetables with oil and season with salt and pepper. Arrange in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast, rotating pans halfway through, until vegetables are golden and tender, 25–30 minutes. Place grated garlic and smoked paprika in a large bowl. Add roasted vegetables and toss to combine. Meanwhile, bring 2” water to a boil in a large saucepan; reduce heat so water isat a gentle simmer. Crack an egg into a small bowl, then gently slide egg into water. Repeat with remaining eggs, waiting until white of egg in water is opaque before adding the next egg (about 30 seconds apart). Poach until whites are set but yolks are still runny, about 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer eggs to paper towels as they are done. Toss salad mix and roasted vegetables with dressing and season with sea salt and pepper. Divide salad among plates and top each with a poached egg. If you don’t have garam masala spice, you can just use a combo of ginger, cinnamon, cumin and (if you have it) ground cardamom. If you have some leftover turnips, throw them in too!

Serve with your radish raita! |
