Yield 4-6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

8 ounces udon noodles
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt, divided, plus more
3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
4-6 large eggs (optional)
8 ounces sliced maitake or shiitake mushrooms
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 tablespoon finely chopped ginger
2 teaspoons white miso paste
4 cups homemade or store-bought low-sodium chicken broth
1 (6x5-inch) piece dried kombu (optional)
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
Chicken Meatballs with Ginger and Miso
1 medium carrot, sliced into 1/4-inch coins
3/4 pound baby bok choy, trimmed, cut crosswise in 2-inch pieces (about 6 cups)
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar (optional)
8 ounces skinless flaky white fish (such as bass, halibut, branzino, or cod), cut into 3x3/4-inch pieces
8 ounces peeled, deveined, tail-on large shrimp
2 tablespoons sliced scallions

Steps:

  • Cook udon in a medium pot of boiling salted water according to package directions. Transfer udon to a colander to drain; reserve cooking liquid in pot. Transfer udon to a large bowl and toss with 1 Tbsp. oil.
  • If using eggs, cover pot and return cooking liquid to a boil. Add eggs and cook at a low boil until soft-boiled, about 6 minutes. Transfer eggs to a large bowl of ice water to cool, then peel and reserve.
  • Heat remaining 2 Tbsp. oil in a large pot over medium-high. Sauté mushrooms and 1/4 tsp. salt until lightly browned and moisture releases, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic and ginger; cook until fragrant, 30-60 seconds. Stir in miso, then add chicken broth. Stir in kombu, if using, soy sauce, and remaining 1/2 tsp. salt. Cover, bring to a simmer, and cook 10 minutes.
  • Add meatballs and carrots. Cover and continue to simmer until meatballs are just cooked through, about 10 minutes. Remove kombu from broth and discard.
  • Stir in bok choy and vinegar, if using. Place fish on top of stew, then cover and cook 3 minutes. Gently fold in shrimp (try to avoid breaking up fish) and cook, covered, until shrimp is pink and fish is opaque and cooked through, about 3 minutes more.
  • Divide stew among bowls. Slice eggs in half lengthwise and top each bowl with 2 halves. Sprinkle with scallions. Serve udon in large bowl for sharing alongside.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 27

1 1/2 slices hearty white bread, crumbled
1/4 cup milk
1 1/2 pounds ground chicken
1 small onion, finely diced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1 large egg
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large yellow onion, diced
3-inch piece fresh peeled ginger, minced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 large jalapeno (seeds and ribs included), finely diced
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 1/2 teaspoons smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into large dice
One 14-ounce can diced tomatoes
4 cups low-sodium chicken stock
3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
8 ounces kale, stemmed and torn into 1-inch pieces
3/4 cup roasted peanuts
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
White rice, for serving

Steps:

  • For the meatballs: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Combine the breadcrumbs with the milk in a medium bowl until the crumbs soak up the milk, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the ground chicken, onion, garlic, smoked paprika, cumin, egg, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Use a 2-tablespoon ice cream scoop to form about 20 meatballs and transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Bake until the meatballs are slightly golden on top and just cooked through, about 15 minutes; set aside.
  • For the stew: Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the ginger, garlic and jalapeno and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, until the color looks rusty, about 1 minute. Add the coriander, smoked paprika and cayenne and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring, about 30 seconds. Add the sweet potatoes, chicken stock, canned tomatoes and peanut butter and stir to combine. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover and cook until the sweet potato is tender, about 30 minutes. Uncover and stir in the meatballs, kale and peanuts; cook for 10 minutes. Taste and season with salt and black pepper. Remove from the heat and stir in the cilantro. Serve with white rice.

RAGOûT DE PATTES DE COCHON (PORK STEW WITH MEATBALLS)



Ragoût De Pattes De Cochon (Pork Stew With Meatballs) image

This is a traditional Quebecois stew made from pork hocks. I'm looking for recipes that DH remembers from childhood. This one was found on bitsnbites.wordpress.com and grouprecipes.com .The stew is a modification of one by Jehane Benoit, a famous Quebec cook. For a richer stock, caramelize you onions and hocks until dark brown. You can use Recipe #356677 - Caramelized Onions. NOTE: The cooking time doesn't include the optional (but recommended to reduce fat content) overnight refrigeration time.

Time 6h45m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 23

3 lbs pork hocks
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper, freshly ground
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, ground
1/4 teaspoon clove, ground
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
2 tablespoons butter, to caramelize onions
2 tablespoons fat, ie shortening, lard, to brown hocks
4 -6 cups water
1 chicken bouillon cube
1 cup onion, sliced and caramelized
4 -6 tablespoons flour, roasted
1/2 cup water
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
allspice, to taste
2 lbs ground beef
1 lb ground pork
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper, freshly ground
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, ground
1/4 teaspoon clove, ground
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg

Steps:

  • STOCK:.
  • The day before serving the ragout, season pork hocks with salt, pepper, cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg.
  • Caramelized onions in a deep saucepan in 2 Tbsp butter (Recipe #356677). Remove from saucepan.
  • In same saucepan, melt 2 tbsp fat and , then brown hocks until dark brown in colour on all sides (this is the secret to a great ragout).
  • Add water, chicken bouillon cube, and onions to pork hocks. Bring to a boil, and then simmer for at least two hours, until meat falls from bones.
  • At this point it's a good idea to remove pork hocks from saucepan and refrigerate the hocks and ragout overnight in fridge so that you can.
  • Remove/skim the congealed fat.
  • Roast flour in 350F oven until caramel brown. This takes about 1 hour. (should be dark brown but not burnt so keep an eye on it). Alternatively you may brown the flour in a hot dry pan (No oil!), stirring continuously until it's a rich, deep, brown colour. (You must be careful not to burn the flour by controlling the temperature of your pan and stirring constantly until done).
  • Remove meat from bone and set aside.
  • Thicken ragout by using a jar or blender to mix the roasted flour with the 1/2 cup water and pour into the ragout, stirring until well mixed and broth has thickened to a nice consistency.
  • Season with salt, pepper and allspice to taste.
  • Add cooked pork meatballs and pork meat and heat thoroughly.
  • MEAT BALLS:.
  • Mix all ingredients and pat mixture into a 1 inch thick rectangle, then cut into 1 inch squares.
  • Shape each square into a 1 inch meatball.
  • Bake in 400F oven for 10 minutes.
  • Add to Ragoût de pattes to complete cooking.
  • Ragout is sometimes served with boiled or mashed potatoes.

ITALIAN SPAGHETTI SAUCE WITH MEATBALLS, SAUSAGE AND STEW BEEF



Italian Spaghetti Sauce With Meatballs, Sausage and Stew Beef image

My mother-in-law has a life-long friend named Rosie, a dear Italian woman, who shared with us her family recipe for a hearty spaghetti sauce. I usually omit the ribs, as I'm not that much of a carnivore! Oftentimes I just make the meatballs with the sauce. No need to fry or bake the meatballs, add just add carefully to the hot sauce, then simmer.

  • Use a light hand when mixing the meatball mixture. Overworking the mixture can make the meatballs tough.
  • Form the meatballs into uniform sizes so that they cook evenly. Use a cookie scoop or a tablespoon to ensure that all the meatballs are the same size.
  • Brown the meatballs in a pan before adding them to the stew. This will give the meatballs a nice color and help to seal in the juices.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in the stew. This will add flavor, color, and nutrients to the dish. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and tomatoes.
  • Season the stew with a variety of herbs and spices. This will help to create a flavorful and aromatic dish. Some good options include garlic, thyme, rosemary, oregano, and bay leaves.
