CHEESY WHITE BEAN-TOMATO BAKE



Cheesy White Bean-Tomato Bake image

For those of you who love lasagna's edges, where sticky tomato meets crisp cheese, this whole dish is for you - even the middle. A tube of tomato paste here mimics the deep flavors of sun-dried tomato. Frying a few generous squeezes caramelizes the tomato's sugars and saturates the olive oil, making a mixture that's ready to glom onto anything you stir through it. Here, it's white beans, though you could add in kale, noodles, even roasted vegetables. Then, all that's left to do is dot it with cheese and bake until it's as molten or singed as you like. Serve with bread and a bitter-green salad.

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 fat garlic cloves, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons tomato paste
2 (15-ounce) cans white beans (such as cannellini or Great Northern) or chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1/2 cup boiling water
Kosher salt and black pepper
1/3 pound mozzarella, coarsely grated (about 1 1/3 cups)

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 475 degrees. In a 10-inch ovenproof skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Fry the garlic until it's lightly golden, about 1 minute. Stir in the tomato paste (be careful of splattering) and fry for 30 seconds, reducing the heat as needed to prevent the garlic from burning.
  • Add the beans, water and generous pinches of salt and pepper and stir to combine. Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the top, then bake until the cheese has melted and browned in spots, 5 to 10 minutes. If the top is not as toasted as you'd like, run the skillet under the broiler for a minute or 2. Serve at once.

Categories     Appetizers

Yield 24 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 lb russet potato, peeled and quartered
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
½ cup grated parmesan cheese, plus more for garnish
4 large eggs, beaten, divided
salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste
12 sticks mozzarella cheese, halved crosswise
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup plain breadcrumbs
oil, for frying
marinara sauce, for serving

Steps:

  • Add the potatoes to a large pot with enough cold water to cover them. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook until tender when pierced with a fork, about 30 minutes.
  • Drain the potatoes and transfer to a large bowl. Use a potato masher to mash the potatoes until there are no large chunks left.
  • Add the garlic, parsley, Parmesan cheese, 1 beaten egg, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  • Take a spoonful of potatoes and form into a patty.
  • Place a cheese stick in the middle and wrap the potato around the cheese until it is evenly covered.
  • Arrange the formed croquettes on a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for 30 minutes.
  • Place the flour, 3 remaining eggs, and bread crumbs in 3 separate shallow bowls. Dredge the croquettes in the flour, shaking off any excess; then dredge in the egg and the bread crumbs.
  • Heat the oil in a large pot until it reaches 350°F (180°C). Fry the croquettes for 3 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Transfer the croquettes to a wire rack set over paper towels to drain the excess oil.
  • Let cool for a few minutes as they will be HOT.
  • Garnish with grated Parmesan cheese and parsley and serve with marinara sauce alongside.
  • Enjoy!
