Roma Tomatoes With Asparagus And Hollandaise Recipes

Steps:

• Place the asparagus in a large skillet and fill with about 1 inch of water. Cover the pan and set over high heat. When the water comes to a boil, cook for 2 minutes or until the asparagus is bright green and almost tender.
• In a separate skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the garlic; cook and stir for 1 minute. Add the tomato to the skillet and cook for about 1 minute or until heated through. Season with salt and pepper. Add asparagus to the pan and cook for about 2 minutes, until hot.

Steps:

• Cut tomatoes in half lengthwise. Seed tomatoes, using teaspoon; remove flesh, leaving 1/4-inch-thick shell. Cut thin slice from rounded side of tomato halves, if necessary, so they'll rest level in pan. Drain tomatoes, hollow sides down, on paper towels.
• Break off tough ends of asparagus. From tip end, cut off top 3 inches of each spear (reserve remaining portions of spear for another use). In 1-quart saucepan, heat 1 inch water to boiling. Add asparagus pieces. Heat to boiling and boil 2 minutes; drain and set aside.
• In same 1-quart saucepan, beat milk and sauce mix with wire whisk until smooth. Add butter. Heat to boiling over medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low. Cook 1 minute, stirring constantly, until thickened and smooth.
• Set oven control to broil. In 13x9-inch pan, place tomato halves. In each tomato half, arrange 3 asparagus pieces lengthwise with tips extended over stem end of tomato. Spoon 1 tablespoon sauce over asparagus-filled tomato halves, allowing some sauce to fill tomato hollow. Sprinkle with cheese.
• Broil with tops 4 to 6 inches from heat 2 to 4 minutes or until tomatoes are hot and cheese just begins to brown. If desired, heat remaining sauce until hot; serve with tomatoes.

Steps:

• Cook asparagus in a large pot of boiling salted water until just tender, about 3-6 minutes.
• Transfer with tongs to a colander.
• While asparagus is cooking, bring a 3 quart saucepan one-third full of water to a boil.
• Whisk together yolks, water, and lemon juice in a small (1-quart) saucepan.
• Place saucepan in a larger pot of boiling water, and whisk egg yolks until they begin to thicken.
• Immediately remove yolks from heat and whisk in half of butter.
• Return saucepan to boiling water and whisk (the sauce will become creamy).
• Remove from heat and whisk in remaining butter.
• Return pan to boiling water, whisking until sauce is thickened slightly.
• Remove from heat and whisk 15 seconds more.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Serve sauce over asparagus.
• Cook's note: Yolks in this recipe may not be cooked fully.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Trim the woody ends from the asparagus, usually about 1 1/2 inches. Lightly peel the remaining stalks (not always necessary, but more of a personal preference). Spread the spears in a single layer on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with the salt and pepper, and roll to coat thoroughly.
• Roast the asparagus until lightly browned and tender, about 8 to 10 minutes, giving the pan a good shake about halfway through to turn the asparagus. Arrange the roasted asparagus on a serving platter and top with some Parmesan. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Melt the butter in a small sauce pan. Place the egg yolks, lemon juice, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, 3/4 teaspoon pepper and cayenne in the jar of a blender. Blend for 15 seconds. With the blender running, slowly pour the hot butter into the blender and blend for 30 seconds, until the sauce is thick. (You can leave it in the blender at room temperature for up to 1 hour. If it is made in advance, add 1 tablespoon hot tap water and blend for a few seconds before serving.)
• Break off the tough ends of the asparagus and, if they're thick, peel them. Place the asparagus on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, then toss to coat the asparagus completely. Spread the asparagus in a single layer and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Roast the asparagus for 15 to 20 minutes, until tender but still crisp.
• Pour the hollandaise sauce over the warm asparagus and serve.

Steps:

• For the Cajun seasoning: Add the thyme, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne, celery salt and some pepper to a small bowl and stir to combine. Reserve for the tomatoes and hollandaise.
• For the green tomatoes: Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
• Slice the tops and bottoms off of the tomatoes and discard. Slice the tomatoes into eight 1/2-inch-thick slices total.
• In a medium bowl, combine the flour, some salt and pepper and 2 teaspoons of the Cajun seasoning. Add the tomato slices and toss to coat.
• Whisk together the milk and eggs in a medium bowl. Combine the cornmeal and breadcrumbs in another medium bowl.
• Working with one slice of tomato at a time, shake off the excess flour mixture, then dip in the egg mixture to coat. Let the excess egg drip off, then add to the cornmeal mixture and turn to coat. Place on a platter and repeat with the remaining tomatoes.
• Add about 1/4 inch of oil to a cast-iron skillet and heat over medium-high heat until it shimmers.
• Add half of the tomatoes and fry, turning once, until golden brown on both sides, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined baking pan and fry the remaining tomatoes. Sprinkle with salt to taste if desired. Transfer the baking pan with the tomatoes to the oven to keep warm while you prepare the rest of the dish.
• For the hollandaise: Fill a blender with hot water. Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat and let the solids sink to the bottom. Pour the water out of the blender and dry it. Combine the lemon juice, egg yolks and 1 tablespoon of the Cajun seasoning in the blender and blend on medium speed until lightened. With the motor running, slowly add the melted butter to the blender, leaving the solids in the pan. Increase the blender speed to high for a few seconds to thoroughly combine. Add a little bit of hot water to thin the sauce to a nice, spoonable consistency. Set the blender canister by the stove to keep warm.
• For the eggs: Fill a wide, shallow pot with about 3 inches of water. Bring to a brisk simmer and add the vinegar. Crack 4 of the eggs into separate small bowls or ramekins, then gently slide the eggs into the simmering water. Cook at a gentle simmer until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, 2 to 3 minutes. Gently remove the eggs from the water with a slotted spoon or spider and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat with the remaining 4 eggs.
• Put 2 tomato slices onto each of 4 plates and top each tomato slice with a slice of ham and a poached egg. Spoon the hollandaise on top, sprinkle with the scallions and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Season each piece of the tuna on both sides with the salt and pepper. Heat a grill to high and grill the tuna to the desired temperature.
• Serve the tuna with the asparagus and tomato sauce.
• Preheat the grill to medium.
• In a shallow baking dish, toss the asparagus with the oil to coat well. Add the salt, and pepper and toss.
• Place the asparagus on the grill in a single layer, and cook, turning, until marked and tender, about 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a platter, sprinkle with the lemon juice and drizzle with olive oil, to taste. Cover with aluminum foil and let sit for 5 minutes before serving.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a large, 14-inch, oven proof frying pan, combine all of the ingredients. Stir to blend then transfer to the oven and cook until the tomatoes begin to caramelize, about 30 minutes. Remove the skillet from the oven and stir well. Return to the oven and continue to cook until further caramelized and much of the liquid has evaporated, about 30 minutes longer. Serve immediately. (Alternately, cool slightly, and transfer to a blender, in batches if necessary, and process sauce until coarsely pureed. If the sauce seems too thick, thin with a bit of water or chicken broth.)
• To store, cool completely and refrigerate for up to 4 days in a nonreactive, airtight container.
• The sauce is great on pasta as well as pizza and even makes a great dipping sauce for hors d'oeuvres. If you prefer a less rustic sauce, puree completely as described above and strain.

Steps:

• In a large saute pan over medium heat, add the olive oil, scallions, garlic, a nice pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Cook until the greens of the scallions are wilted and darkened with the oil and the garlic is tender and slightly golden, about 4 minutes. Add the tomatoes, season with salt and cook while stirring until the tomatoes are softened, about 2 minutes. Add the clam juice and lemon juice, bring to a light simmer and stir. Taste, and if the tomatoes and lemon juice are too tart, add sugar and stir.
• Sprinkle the shrimp with salt and pepper and add to the pan. Cook on 1 side until the shrimp begins to turn opaque and curl slightly, 2 to 3 minutes. Then toss and cook until they just begin to turn pink on the other side, 1 to 2 more minutes. (Shrimp cooks fast and there's a thin line between done and overdone; the best rule is to remove the pan from the heat as they begin to reach the finish line. Continue tossing and the heat of the pan will continue to cook them until done.) Serve warm or chilled.

Steps:

• Wash the chicken thigh, asparagus, tomatoes and lettuce. Place them in a bowl. Slice the cherry tomatoes in halves. Heat the frying pan on high heat and pour in olive oil.
• Put the chicken thigh in the pan and turn the heat to medium. Let the chicken sit in the pan for 3 mins. Then, flip it over on the other side and let it sit for another 3 mins.
• After that, pour all the ingredients in the bowl into the pan and fry then on medium heat with the chicken for 15 mins. Then, pour 200ml of boiling water into the pan and add in the salt. Fry everything together for another 10 mins.
• Place the cooked food on a plate and serve it with chilli. And your amazing dish is completed.

Steps:

• Warm the olive oil or butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the peeled and trimmed asparagus, lemon zest, and salt & pepper; stir to combine.
• Cover and cook until tender-crisp, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Do not over cook.
• Arrange on serving platter and squeeze with fresh lemon juice.
• Prepare the Hollandaise Sauce: Cut the butter into four pieces and place in a 1-quart glass measure or bowl. Microwave, covered with a paper towel, on high, until almost melted (about 45 seconds to 1 minute).
• Remove butter from the microwave and stir until completely melted.
• Separate eggs, placing the yolks in a small bowl and setting the whites aside for another purpose. Beat the yolks well with a whisk or fork, then add to the butter and stir well.
• Add cream, lemon juice, and sugar to egg mixture and stir well. Microwave mixture, uncovered, on high, until just slightly thick, about 1 to 2 minutes, stopping every 20 seconds to stir with a fork. Remove sauce from microwave and stir in the mustard.
• Pour warm sauce over the cooked white asparagus and serve at once. Garnish with fresh snipped parsley or fresh small edible flowers such as violets or Johnny jump-ups, if desired.
• NOTE: Sauce may be kept warm for up to 2 hours in an insulated container. Or cool the sauce to room temperature and refrigerate it in a covered microwave safe container for up to 24 hours. To re-warm, cover container with plastic wrap, pierce wrap with a knife to vent, and microwave on 50 percent power until heated through, about 2-3 minutes, stopping to stir halfway through. Do not allow sauce to boil.

Steps:

• Find a high-sided pan large enough to accommodate both salmon fillets side-by-side, without too much excess room; a small skillet or medium-sized saucepan should do. Pour lemon juice and olive oil into the pan, along with enough water to bring the water level up to 3/4-inch. Season the water to taste with salt and pepper, then add the salmon. Pour in enough water to just cover the salmon.
• Place the salmon over medium-high heat, and heat until the water is hot and steaming, but not simmering (165 degrees F (75 degrees C)); reduce heat if needed to keep the water at the proper temperature. Poach until the salmon turns opaque, and is firm to the touch; or to an internal temperature of 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Proceed making the Hollandaise sauce while the salmon is poaching.
• Pour a few inches of water into a saucepan, and bring to a boil over high heat, then turn heat to medium-high and maintain water at a gentle boil. Place the egg yolks in a metal bowl, and whisk in hot water. Place the bowl over, but not touching, the boiling water. Whisk constantly until the yolks thicken, turn a light, opaque yellow, and double in volume. You may need to remove the bowl from the boiling water from time to time in order to keep from scrambling the yolks.
• When the yolks have thickened and increased in volume, begin whisking in the butter, a cube at a time until it melts and incorporates into the hollandaise sauce. Wait for each cube to melt and incorporate before adding the next. Once all of the butter has been incorporated, remove from heat, whisk in the lemon juice, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
• To serve, drain the poached salmon and place each piece onto a dinner plate. Generously ladle with the warm hollandaise sauce, and sprinkle with chives.

Steps:

• Fry the onion and garlic in low fat cooking spray until soft add the tomatoes wine stock oregano and basil and season with black pepper. Stir well and bring to the boil. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes. Allow to cool slightly and blend until smooth.
• Cook the pasta according to packet instructions until al dente, drain and add to sauce pour into a shallow baking dish.
• Mix the topping ingredients and spoon evenly over the top. Cover with foil and bake in a preheated over at gas mark 4 for 25 minutes. Remove foil and continue to cook for a further 5 minutes until golden.

Steps:

• Remove the woody ends from the asparagus and place in a microwave dish.
• Mix the other ingredients together in a bowl, ensuring everything is well combined.
• Microwave the asparagus on high for one minute.
• Spoon the salmon mixture over the asapargus and cook on high for another 30-40 seconds.
• Remove and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat an Omelette Pan on medium heat until the rim of the pan is hot-to-the-touch.
• Add the olive oil and heat for another minute.
• Add the garlic, shallots, tomatoes and asparagus.
• Cook for 3-4 minutes and remove from the heat.
• Remove to a serving platter, garnish with the chiffonade of basil, and season with salt and pepper.
