# Recipe: Jake's Egg Over Sunchokes and Polenta with Pickled Red Onions - Made In



Here's Made In Co-Founder Jake Kalick's recipe for Egg Over Sunchokes and Polenta with Pickled Red Onions that utilizes a Made In Stainless Clad Saucepan, Saucier, and Frying Pan!

### Ingredients

Handful of sunchokes

½ red onion

Salt

Vinegar (any variation/mixture of red wine, champagne vinegar, etc.)

Rosemary

Bunch of kale

½ cup parmesan cheese

1 scallion, finely chopped

### For Poached Eggs:

2 eggs

1 tsp kosher salt

2 tsp rice vinegar

### For Polenta:

1 cup yellow cornmeal

5 cups water

5 tbsp unsalted butter

Salt and pepper

### Steps

Step 1: Quick pickle your red onion

- Finely slice your red onion
- Submerge onion slivers in a mixture of salt and your vinegar(s) of choice
- Let sit at room temperature

Step 2: Prepare the polenta

- Jake makes NYT Cooking's Basic Polenta recipe in his Made In Saucier
- "It's delicious and also a great starting point for people who have never made polenta before." - Jake
- Tip from Jake: The polenta is the only thing in the recipe that can’t be made quickly, so you can prep it in advance if you’d like

Step 3: Get the vegetables ready

- Clean the sunchokes by brushing dirt off of them
- Slice the sunchokes into the size of a quarter, keeping skin on
- Heat 2 tbsp canola oil in a frying pan (Jake uses his Made In 12” stainless steel frying pan)
- Once oil heats up, add sunchokes and a couple sprigs of rosemary and season with salt.
- As the sunchokes are browning (but not burning) add kale on top to wilt, add more salt

Step 5: Poach Egg

- Here is the egg poaching method Jake uses to poach his eggs in his Made In 2 QT Saucepan.

### Assemble dish:

Layer polenta first, then add kale and sunchokes. Top with the poached egg and add pickled red onion, scallions, and parmesan to finish. Serve with hot sauce.
