SMOKED SALMON AND POTATO BREAKFAST CASSEROLE
2 cups (lightly packed) 1/2-inch cubes French baguette with
crusts
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 pound russet potatoes, peeled, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1/2 cup finely chopped shallots
1/2 pound hot-smoked salmon fillets, skinned, flaked into
bite-size pieces
3 tablespoons minced fresh chives
2 teaspoons minced fresh dill
1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
4 large eggs
1 cup half and half
3 tablespoons sour cream
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Additional sour cream
Capers
Fresh dill sprigs
Preheat oven to 400°F. Arrange bread on rimmed baking sheet.
Bake until pale golden, about 5 minutes, then cool.
Butter 11x7-inch glass baking dish. Melt 2 tablespoons
butter with oil in heavy large skillet over medium-low heat. Add potatoes. Stir
to coat and arrange in single layer. Cover and cook until potatoes are almost
tender, about 8 minutes. Uncover; increase heat to medium-high, and cook until
potatoes are lightly browned and tender, stirring occasionally, about 5
minutes. Add shallots and sauté until soft, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
Gently mix in bread, salmon, chives, minced dill and feta. Transfer mixture to
prepared dish.
Whisk eggs and next 5 ingredients in medium bowl to blend
well. Pour custard over potato mixture in dish. Let stand 15 minutes,
occasionally pressing bread into custard. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover;
chill. Let stand at room temperature 30 minutes before baking.)
Preheat oven to 350°F. Bake casserole, uncovered, until
custard is set, about 30 minutes. Cut into squares and top with additional sour
cream, capers, and dill sprigs; serve hot.
