Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

3 large egg yolks
2 tablespoons country mustard
Salt and pepper
1/2 cup grapeseed oil
1/2 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

1 garlic clove, peeled and smashed
1 sprig thyme

Steps:

  • For the Mayonnaise: Separate the egg yolks and place in a large bowl. Add mustard, salt and pepper and whisk to combine. Slowly drizzle in grapeseed oil while whisking to emulsify the yolks. Then, slowly drizzle in olive oil while constantly whisking to continue to emulsify the mayonnaise. When the mayonnaise is thick and rich, whisk in the vinegar. (Makes about 1 1/2 cups)
  • For the cole slaw: Remove 1 cup of mayonnaise to a small bowl and reserve (This will keep, refrigerated, for up to 2 weeks). To the remaining mayonnaise, add the julienned cabbage, radishes, turnips, and carrots. Season with salt and pepper, and add cider vinegar. Drizzle with olive oil to soften the vegetables, add parsley, and set aside to marinate while preparing the fish.
  • Heat a nonstick skillet over high heat. Season fish with salt and pepper on both sides. Drizzle one tablespoon of oil in the pan for each piece of fish that is added to the pan and heat until almost smoking. Check marinated coleslaw for seasoning and add salt and pepper if necessary. Fold in kale followed by a squeeze of lemon.While pan is heating, check the marinating cole slaw and adjust for seasoning, adding salt, pepper, mayonnaise or vinegar to taste. Fold in Kale and finish with a squeeze of lemon cheek.
  • Set aside. Gently add the fish to the pan while keeping it on a high heat. Smash a clove of garlic and lay it in the pan along with a sprig of thyme and butter. Cook 2 minutes, then flip. Baste fish with pan juices and cook 2 more minutes. Repeat with remaining fish adding more oil, butter, garlic and thyme as necessary. Place coleslaw in the center of the plate and gently place the fish on top.

CATHY'S QUICK STIR-FRIED BROCCOLI SLAW SIDE DISH



Cathy's Quick Stir-Fried Broccoli Slaw Side Dish image

My husband and I were hosting a small backyard get together, and were getting ready to take everything out to the deck to eat, when I realized we didn't really have much of a vegetable to serve. I opened the fridge and saw a bag of broccoli slaw and just threw this together. It was a hit! Our neighbor begged me for the recipe, so I decided I'd better post it before I forget what I did! Measurements of oil, garlic, and soy sauce are approximate. This is a simple, fresh side dish with a nutty-garlic flavor. Adjust to your personal preferences. I've never cooked with sesame seeds, but I'd be curious to see how they would work in this dish, in place of the pine nuts. Prep time is for toasting pine nuts, but this can easily be done while stirfrying the broccoli slaw as well. (In a separate pan, of course!)

Provided by SrtaMaestra

Categories     < 15 Mins

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (12 ounce) bag broccoli coleslaw mix
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
1 1/2 tablespoons garlic, minced
2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon sugar, to taste (I used Splenda)
1/4 cup pine nuts, toasted (See note)
salt or pepper, if desired

Steps:

  • Heat sesame oil in large skillet or wok.
  • Add garlic. Sautee garlic slightly, infusing oil with garlic flavor. Monitor heat carefully to avoid burning.
  • Add broccoli coleslaw, and stir fry until crisp-tender. (I cheated and put the cover on my skillet for a little while to speed things along with a little steam).
  • Add soy sauce and splenda, and continue to cook until splenda is disolved and liquid is absorbed. Taste test, and determine whether or not you'd like to add more splenda, soy sauce, or salt and pepper. Adjust seasonings accordingly.
  • Place in serving bowl, and top with toasted pine nuts. Toss slightly, but no so much that pine nuts drop all the way to the bottom of the bowl.
  • Note: To toast pine nuts, I placed them in a heavy pan, over medium-low heat, and tossed and shook the pan to keep them moving, until they started to show some browning and until they started to smell toasted and more intense.

ALMOST FAMOUS COLESLAW



Almost Famous Coleslaw image

Here's our take on the coleslaw served at KFC. It's sweet and cooling and a perfect pairing for salty fried chicken or any barbecue sandwich.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     condiment

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

One 14-ounce bag coleslaw mix (traditional mix of green cabbage and carrots)
1/2 small onion
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons sugar
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
1/8 teaspoon dry mustard powder
Pinch paprika
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Working with half of the bag at a time, chop the coleslaw mix into 1/8-inch pieces (about the width of the carrots). Transfer to a large bowl. Dice enough of the onion into 1/8-inch pieces to yield 1/4 cup. Transfer to a fine-mesh strainer and rinse with cold water for 1 minute to soften the flavor. Gently wring out the onions in a paper towel and then stir into the coleslaw mix.
  • In a pint jar or other container with a tight-fitting lid, stir together the sugar and 3 tablespoons water until the sugar dissolves a bit. Add the mayonnaise, vinegar, mustard powder, paprika and 1/2 teaspoon salt, put on the lid and shake vigorously until completely combined. Stir the dressing into the coleslaw, then set aside for 10 minutes to marinate and soften, stirring a few times. Add more salt, if needed. The coleslaw will keep, covered in the refrigerator, for up to 1 day.

PAN-FRIED COD WITH SLAW



Pan-Fried Cod With Slaw image

We found this recipe in Food Network Mag Feb/Mar 09 pg 67. If you don't like tartar sauce on fish, this slaw is a great alternative. The fish is crispy, you can use any white fish, our favorite is walleye but its not always available. You can also just use shredded coleslaw mix to cut time. For a lighter version, use nonfat Greek yogurt instead of mayo.

1 tablespoon whole grain mustard

1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs, breading or 1/3 cup crushed saltine crackers

Tips:

  • Choose a firm head of cabbage for your coleslaw. This will help it hold its shape during frying.
  • Make sure the coleslaw is well-drained before frying. This will help it crisp up.
  • Use a large skillet or wok to fry the coleslaw. This will give it plenty of room to spread out and cook evenly.
  • Heat the oil over medium-high heat before adding the coleslaw. This will help it sear and prevent it from sticking to the pan.
  • Stir the coleslaw constantly while frying. This will help it cook evenly and prevent it from burning.
  • Cook the coleslaw until it is tender-crisp. This will take about 5-7 minutes.
  • Season the coleslaw with salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste.
  • Serve the coleslaw hot or cold. It can be served as a side dish or a main course.

Conclusion:

Pan-fried coleslaw is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. It is a great way to use up leftover coleslaw, and it can also be made with fresh cabbage. Pan-fried coleslaw is a healthy and affordable dish that is sure to please everyone at your table.
