Directions:
Potato Scallops:
- With your kitchen knife, cut 3 large russet potatoes into 1 inch slices.
- Turn your oven to a temperature of 350°F.
- Rinse sliced potatoes with cold running water. Once done, pat dry and place to the side.
- Grab a medium sauté pan (or cast iron) and pour in 1 ounce of olive oil while preheating over medium-high heat.
- Season potatoes with salt and pepper on both sides. Carefully place potatoes into the pan and cook for 3 minutes on both sides, to avoid or minimize splattering.
- Once potatoes are cooked with a nice GBD (Golden Brown Delicious) color, move potatoes to a baking sheet and into the oven to bake for 8 minutes.
- After 8 minutes, pull the potatoes out of the oven and you’re good to go.
Spinach Whipped Potatoes:
- Start by grabbing a medium stock or sauce pot. Fill with water to about halfway full.
- Rinse and peel potatoes, removing all of the outer skin.
- Cut potatoes into cubes; add them to your water pot.
- Place the pot on high heat with a dash of salt to season the water.
- Let the potatoes come to a boil.
- In a sauté pan add 2 teaspoons of oil, bring to medium heat, and add spinach.
- Cook down your spinach with 4 tablespoons of fresh garlic, salt, pepper and green onions. Let cool.
- In a mixer add your cooked spinach, heavy cream and chopped green onions. Blend until smooth, then season.
- Drain potatoes and place into a mixing bowl. Fold in the spinach mixture, melted butter, garlic powder, onion powder and salt to taste.
Oven-Roasted Cauliflower:
- Cut purple cauliflower into florets.
- Place onto a baking sheet. Season with salt, olive oil and minced shallots.
- Roast in the oven for 15 minutes at 350°F.
