Steamedgingerricewithsnowpeas Recipes

Steps:

• Place the squash, cauliflower and ginger in a large steamer basket over a saucepan of simmering water and season with salt. Cover and steam until the vegetables are tender, about 25 minutes. Add the snow peas, remove the pan from the heat and keep covered until the peas are crisp-tender, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, toast the coriander seeds in a skillet over medium-low heat until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the sesame oil and increase the heat to medium-high. Add the chickpeas and cook until crisp, about 5 minutes. Add the butter and scallions; remove from the heat.
• Divide the vegetables among plates, over rice if desired. Spoon the chickpea mixture on top and garnish with the mint and sesame seeds.

Steps:

• WASH THE RICE: Rinse under running water, rubbing the grains together between the palms of your hands; continue this rinsing until the water runs fairly clear. THIS WILL TAKE A COUPLE MINUTES; DON'T RUSH THIS MOST IMPORTANT STEP!
• Place rice in a covered sauce pan; add water to 1/2-inch above the rice; put on high heat. Stay in the area -- don't fall asleep -- PAY ATTENTION!
• As soon as it boils rapidly, reduce heat to medium/low and keep simmering for 10 minutes. DO NOT PEEK. DO NOT OPEN THE LID.
• Remove pot from burner but STILL DO NOT OPEN THE LID; let the rice rest undisturbed for five minutes.
• Fluff the rice with a pair of chopsticks before serving.

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Stir in white rice and salt. Return to a boil over medium-high heat.
• Reduce heat, and simmer, covered, until rice is tender and has absorbed all the water, 16 to 18 minutes (check only toward the end of cooking time). The rice will be studded with steam holes when ready.
• Remove from heat, and let stand, covered, for 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork before serving.

Steps:

• Rinse rice in several changes of cold water until water is clear, then drain well in a large fine-mesh sieve. Bring rice and water (3 3/4 cups) to a boil in a 4-quart wide heavy pot and boil, uncovered, without stirring, until steam holes appear in rice and grains on surface look dry, 5 to 7 minutes. Reduce heat to very low, then cover pot with a tight-fitting lid and simmer 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, 5 minutes. Gently fluff rice with a fork.

Steps:

• Pat halibut dry with paper towels. Rub both sides of fillet with salt. Scatter the ginger over the top of the fish and place onto a heatproof ceramic dish.
• Place into a bamboo steamer set over several inches of gently boiling water, and cover. Gently steam for 10 to 12 minutes.
• Pour accumulated water out of the dish and sprinkle the fillet with green onion. Drizzle both soy sauces over the surface of the fish.
• Heat peanut and sesame oils in a small skillet over medium-high heat until they begin to smoke. When the oil is hot, carefully pour on top of the halibut fillet. The very hot oil will cause the green onions and water on top of the fish to pop and spatter all over; be careful. Garnish with cilantro sprigs and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Cut 6 foil squares large enough for each fillet.
• Center fillets on the foil squares and sprinkle each with dill weed, onion powder, parsley, paprika, seasoned salt, lemon pepper, and garlic powder. Sprinkle lemon juice over each fillet. Fold foil over fillets to make a pocket and fold the edges to seal. Place sealed packets on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Saute rice in butter just until translucent and very lightly browned.
• Add chopped onion, and continue sauteing until onion is translucent, stirring frequently to prevent onion from burning.
• Drain any excess butter or olive oil.
• Add stock or water carefully to prevent steam burns; it WILL blow steam!
• Adjust heat for a slow simmer, cover, and cook about 15 minutes without stirring or uncovering.
• If all liquid is not absorbed, remove cover, and continue cooking for another 5 minutes.
• Fluff gently with a fork just before serving.
• Variation: Lightly brown orzo or broken pasta in butter and/or olive oil before adding rice.
• Add rice when orzo is already lightly browned, and saute as above, but orzo will be dark brown by the time rice is light brown and onion is translucent; do not burn orzo.
• Add 3 cups of liquid instead of 2 cups, and cook as above.

Steps:

• Wash rice in several of changes of water until the water runs clear.
• Place rice in a 3 quart saucepan that has a tight fitting lid.

• Cover tightly, turn heat very low and cook 20 minutes.
• Add snow peas and cover.
• Cook 2 minutes longer then remove from heat and let stand 3 to 5 minutes before serving.
• Stir gently to combine rice with snow peas.

• Place pears in a small baking dish. Sprinkle ginger over the cavities of the pears. Set each swizzle stick across two pear halves. Set the baking dish on top of the steamer inside pot. Cover pot, and place over medium-high heat. Bring the water to a boil, and reduce to a simmer. Steam pears, rotating swizzle sticks halfway through steaming, until tender, 20 to 30 minutes depending on the ripeness of the pears. Remove baking dish from steamer. Serve pears drizzled with any juices in the bottom of the baking dish.
