Smoked Paprika Sauce For Asparagus And Other Veggies Recipes

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in small saucepan over low heat.
• Add paprika, cumin and garlic and cook 5 minutes.
• Put mayonnaise in small bowl.
• Add the seasoned oil from saucepan, using spatula to get all of it, if necessary.
• Add lime juice and cilantro.
• Whisk to combine.
• Cook asparagus in boiling water for 2-3 minutes.
• Drain and rinse to stop cooking but do not make cold.
• Pour some of the sauce over the asparagus and serve the rest on the side.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place asparagus on a large baking sheet in one layer and season with salt. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat.
• Bake in the preheated oven until soft, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, for the cheese sauce melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add flour and whisk until smooth and golden, about 2 minutes. Add half and half, mustard powder, and paprika; whisk for an additional 2 minutes. Add smoked Gouda cheese and whisk until cheese is melted and sauce is thickened, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer asparagus to a serving tray and spoon cheese sauce on top.

Steps:

• Preheat the smoker to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Add wood chips according to manufacturer's directions.
• Place asparagus inside a disposable foil pan. Drizzle oil, salt, and pepper over the top. Toss to coat.
• Place the pan on the smoker rack and smoke for 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Place the broccoli and cauliflower on a sheet pan in an even layer. Drizzle with 1/4 cup oil, toss to coat and season lightly with salt and black pepper. Roast until the vegetables are crisp and lightly browned around the edges, 25 to 30 minutes.
• While the vegetables are roasting, in the bowl of a food processor, pulse the cashews and garlic until finely chopped. Add the roasted red peppers, smoked paprika, coriander, cumin, vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pulse to incorporate. While the food processor is going, drizzle in the remaining ¼ cup of oil. Turn off, taste and add more salt and sherry vinegar to season if necessary. The sauce should be thick but spreadable and should easily drop off a spoon when lifted.
• Transfer the hot roasted broccoli and cauliflower to a serving platter. Spoon the cashew romesco on top. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Trim asparagus and diagonally cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices.
