Broccoli And Barley Recipes

Steps:

• Prepare barley as directed. Steam the broccoli florets for about 8 to 10 minutes.
• Combine the two together, add butter, minced ginger and lemon juice. Add zest for garnish. I served mine with Spicy Orange Tilapia. https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/main-course/fish/spicy-orange-tilapia.html?p=1

Steps:

• Pour a litre of cold water over the barley, cover and leave to soak overnight.
• The next day, drain the barley, reserve the liquid and use it to make 500ml vegetable bouillon. Heat half the oil in a non-stick pan, add the leek and cook briefly to soften. Tip half into a bowl, then add the barley and bouillon to the pan, cover and simmer for 20 mins.
• Meanwhile, add the garlic, basil, remaining oil, the lemon juice and 3 tbsp water to the leeks in the bowl, and blitz to a paste with a stick blender
• When the barley has cooked for 20 mins, add the broccoli to the pan and cook for 5-10 mins more until both are tender. Stir in the basil purée, heat very briefly (to retain the fragrance), then spoon into bowls to serve.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter. Add the barley and cook over moderately high heat, stirring until fragrant and lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add 3 cups of water and 1 teaspoon of salt and bring to a boil.
• Cover and cook over low heat until the barley is tender and the water is absorbed, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a large deep skillet, bring 1/2 inch of water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets, cover and cook just until bright green, about 2 minutes.
• Drain and pat dry. Wipe out the skillet and melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in the olive oil.
• Add the broccoli stems and stir-fry over high heat until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Add the shallots, ginger and jalapeño and stir-fry for 1 minute.
• Add the broccoli florets, season with salt and stir-fry for 2 minutes.
• Off the heat, stir in the barley and scallion and the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter. Transfer to a bowl and serve warm.

Steps:
