Potato

I used to shy away from making pot roasts for my family because choosing the right cut of beef among all the various cuts seemed overwhelming. Take it from me, picking up a relatively inexpensive chuck roast (like the one I use here) provides a moist, juicy, and tender roast every time.

While this easy curry is super satisfying served over rice or with naan, we wrapped it in some leftover crepes for a convincing dosa-like experience.

Roast salmon in a low oven for about 30 minutes while you whip together a quick tarragon potato salad and yogurt sauce to serve alongside.

This hearty burrito comes together in just 22 minutes, but it's still full of flavor.

This elegant little dinner of lamb, miso butter–basted potatoes, and honey-glazed carrots is the perfect size for two.

For Super Bowl 50, go all-out with our epic 50-ingredient nachos, or choose just one of the (much-simpler) five “zones” to make for game day.

If you haven't noticed by now, we love braising. This stew wraps itself around your soul and squeezes ever so gently. And while it truly embodies the concept of a one-pot meal, we do like to roast the vegetables separately so they retain their individual flavor, creating even greater depth of flavor.

With sweet potato as a binder, quinoa for protein, and meaty mushrooms for depth, this veggie burger beats anything in the frozen foods aisle.

We combined the rich and indulgent cheesiness of Pommes Aligot and the beautifully swirled rosettes of Pommes Duchesse into one super-luxe casserole that looks fancy but is surprisingly simple to make.

When it comes to a special-occasion main course, it doesn't get more timeless or show-stopping than porchetta.

I made this glorious hamburger soup one Sunday in winter for three very important reasons: One, it was so ding dang cold outside, all I could think about was soup. Two, church was canceled (Church? Canceled? I don't understand.) and I didn't have anything else to do. Three, I was hungry, man. I love hamburger soup so much because it's meaty and hearty and flavorful and satisfying. Mmmmmm! It just feels good to eat it, and as a bonus, it always reminds me of my grandmother Ga-Ga. And that always means it's going to be delicious.

Sure, this recipe can make standard-size latkes, but the minis are just right for noshing while chatting.

You can substitute braised short rib, pork shoulder, or brisket for the pastrami—if it's fatty and shreddable, it will make a good hash.

With apple cider, Aleppo pepper, and thyme, this pretty dish offers a lighter take on your usual Thanksgiving sweet potato casserole.
