Chef John's Baked Mushroom Risotto
The beginning and the end of this risotto recipe are pretty standard, but we've moved the middle 15 minutes into the oven in an attempt to eliminate those dreaded 'variables.' Besides being easier and more repeatable, this method produced a risotto that was identical in looks, taste, and texture to anything I can do on the stove.
Oven-Baked Onion Rings
These easy baked onion rings are super crunchy and almost as good as any made in a deep fryer. No-muss, no-fuss!
Baked "Fried" Rice
This easy oven method for baked "fried" rice produces something very similar to classic fried rice, but you don't need leftover rice to make it. Just like rice pilaf, the grains of rice get coated in fat before absorbing the cooking liquid, ensuring plump, tender, separate grains with no sticky clumps. If using a different kind of rice or pan size, just adjust the cooking time. Garnish with green onions and serve with a runny poached egg on top if desired.
Pan-Fried Butter Beans
This pan-fried butter bean recipe is delicious, super-easy, and good for you too.
Classic Rice Pilaf
Try this baked rice pilaf for a perfect batch of white rice made without a rice cooker. Once you see how incredibly delicious and foolproof this method is, you'll never cook rice on the stovetop again.
Kartoffelklöße (German Potato Dumplings)
These German potato dumplings are the latest import to my potato-side dish collection. They're drizzled in browned butter and topped with crunchy croutons, but they're also good topped with bacon, sautéed onions, and mushroom sauce. If you have time, roast the potatoes (instead of boiling them) so they're nice and dry. I like to serve them with sausage and red cabbage.
Persian Rice
This Persian rice with golden potatoes and saffron takes the grand prize. I believe I've posted a few foolproof methods for cooking perfect rice, but the beauty of this method is that it doesn't rely on any specific measurements or exact times. This will make some of you very nervous but just go with it.
Smashed Cucumber Salad
This smashed cucumber salad is one of my all-time favorite cold summer side dishes. By crushing our cucumber before we cut it, we produce flavors that un-smashed cukes can't. The only decision you're going to have to make is how long to let the cucumbers marinate — half an hour or so or not at all. Perfect with grilled meat or shrimp.
Chef John's French Fries (How to Make)
Learn how to make French fries that are super crispy with this twice-fried method. I don't think most people realize that any decent French fry needs to be fried twice. The first frying is done at a lower temperature, which softens the potato and prepares the starchy surface for the second frying's crispification.
Fondant Potatoes
My fondant potatoes are oven-braised in a buttery, thyme-flavored sauce. The result of this old-school method? Golden brown potatoes with a crispy crust that remain rich and creamy on the insides. Serve this classic French side dish alongside roast chicken, beef, or fish.
Chef John's Jollof Rice
This is a foolproof recipe for cooking Jollof rice, West Africa's most popular dish. I like to serve it as a side with my West African-style grilled beef (Suya), but it can also be a main course.
Mashed Potato au Gratin
This spectacular mashed potato au gratin is my favorite potato side dish, mashed potatoes, topped with my other favorite potato side dish, potatoes au gratin. Beautiful, buttery mashed potatoes, with crusty, cheesy potatoes on top—it's a whole new exciting way to eat potatoes.
