Spaghetti With Scallion Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Cook spaghetti in a 6- to 8-quart pot of boiling salted water until al dente.
• While pasta cooks, heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat until hot but not smoking, then cook scallions and garlic, stirring occasionally, until scallions are softened and garlic begins to turn golden, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer scallion mixture to a blender and add zest, salt, pepper, remaining olive oil, and 1/2 cup pasta-cooking water, then purée until smooth. (Use caution when blending hot liquids.)
• Drain pasta in a colander and return to pot.
• Toss pasta with scallion purée, cheese, and salt and pepper to taste over moderate heat until pasta is well coated.

Steps:

• In a well-salted pot of boiling water, cook pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain, saving 1 cup pasta water.
• In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium. Add garlic and scallion whites, and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add anchovies and capers and cook until anchovies melt and capers and garlic turn golden, 2 to 3 minutes longer. Add 1/2 cup pasta water, let it reduce until there is just a little left in the pan, then add pasta and herbs and toss well to coat. Add tuna and toss well.
• Serve with red-pepper flakes on top, more herbs, scallion greens, and a drizzle of olive oil. Serve with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing.

Steps:

• Cut enough of scallion greens into 2-inch pieces to measure 3 cups and finely chop white parts. Mince garlic. Shell and devein shrimp.
• Fill a 6-quart pasta pot three fourths full with salted water and bring to a boil for scallion greens and pasta.
• In a deep 12-inch heavy skillet cook finely chopped scallions in 2 tablespoons oil over moderately low heat, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Transfer mixture to a blender and wipe skillet clean.
• Blanch scallion greens in boiling water 30 seconds and with a slotted spoon transfer to blender. Transfer 1/4 cup scallion water to blender and reserve water remaining in pot over low heat, covered. Blend scallion mixture with 2 tablespoons oil until smooth (use caution when blending hot liquids). Season sauce with salt and pepper.
• In skillet heat 2 tablespoons oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté half of shrimp, turning them, until golden brown on both sides and just cooked through, about 2 minutes. Transfer shrimp to a plate and keep warm, covered. Sauté remaining shrimp in same manner, adding remaining tablespoon oil if necessary, and keep warm in skillet, covered.
• Return water in pot to a boil. Cook pasta in boiling water, stirring occasionally, until al dente and ladle out and reserve 1 cup pasta water. Drain pasta in a colander and add to skillet with sauce and 1/4 cup reserved pasta water. Heat mixture over low heat, gently tossing (and adding more pasta water as needed if mixture becomes dry), until just heated through. Serve pasta topped with remaining shrimp and garnished with scallion greens.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat.
• Trim the scallions. Thinly slice 1 or 2 scallions on the diagonal and set aside for garnish. Cut the remaining scallions into 1/2-inch-long pieces.
• In a large cast-iron skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high. Add the 1/2-inch scallion pieces, season generously with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until scallions start to caramelize, soften and brown in spots, about 6 to 8 minutes. Set aside.
• Once the water comes to a boil, add the pasta and reduce the heat to medium-high. Cook until al dente according to package instructions. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta water.
• While the pasta cooks, prepare the sauce: In a large bowl, add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, the Parmesan, crème fraîche and lemon zest; mix to combine. Stir in 1/2 cup of the hot reserved pasta water until the sauce is smooth. Season with salt and pepper and stir in the charred scallions.
• When the pasta is done, add the peas to the water and turn off the heat. Immediately drain the pasta and peas together, and add them to the sauce in the large bowl. Toss thoroughly to combine, adding more reserved pasta water as desired to loosen the sauce to a silky texture. Season to taste.
• Serve immediately. Divide among bowls and top with more pepper and reserved sliced scallions. Serve with the lemon wedges, for squeezing on top.

Steps:

• Combine the ground pork, 1/2 the green onion, 1/2 the garlic, soy sauce, and sesame oil.
• Mix well and keep covered in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
• While bringing the water for the pasta to a boil, heat the vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat.
• When the oil begins to smoke, add the remaining garlic and green onion, and stir fry rapidly for 1 minute.
• Add the pork mixture, breaking the meat into small chunks as it cooks, until nicely browned (not burnt).
• Add the soy sauce 1 Tbsp at a time, tasting after each addition to make sure it's not too salty.
• Add the remaining ingredients.
• By now the water for the pasta should be boiling.
• If it isn't reduce the heat to low and simmer the sauce, stirring occasionally.
• Cook the pasta, if you don't know how, read the package directions.
• Drain the pasta, and toss it into the wok (or combine everything into a large bowl).
• Toss well to coat and to distribute the meat (it tends to fall to the bottom, you'll need a spoon to get it out with your servings).
• Goes great with scallion pancakes!

Steps:

• Heat oil; brown garlic, onion, mushrooms and parsley.
• Add all other ingredients.
• Simmer 10 minutes.
