PEANUT SOUP WITH RICE AND SCALLIONS



Peanut Soup with Rice and Scallions image

Instead of white cubes of tofu bobbing in this African-style, soup where they look decidedly odd, I puree the tofu with a portion of the finished soup until everything is smooth. The tofu is there, but it doesn't intrude. And this is a method you can use with virtually any pureed soup. If you wish, you can puree the entire soup, or leave it textured, with bits of sweet potatoes and peppers.

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons roasted peanut or vegetable oil
2 large onions, diced
2 large bell peppers, 1 red and 1 green, diced into ½-inch chunks
2 teaspoons chopped ginger
2 sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
3 large garlic cloves, finely chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes, or more to taste
2 cups crushed tomatoes in sauce
5 cups water, or chicken stock, or Basic Vegetable Stock
¾ cup peanut butter
1 box or ½ carton tofu, preferably soft
2 cups cooked rice
1 cup sliced scallions, including the firm greens

Steps:

  • Warm the oil in a wide soup pot set over high heat. Add the onions, bell peppers, ginger, and sweet potatoes, and sauté, stirring frequently, until the onions have begun to color, 8 to 10 minutes, adding the garlic after the first 5 minutes. Add 1 teaspoon salt, several good twists of the pepper mill, and the cayenne, to taste, and cook a few minutes longer.
  • Add the tomatoes and scrape the pot to lift up any brown bits from the bottom. Add the water or stock, bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer, covered, for 25 minutes.
  • Add the peanut butter and cook, stirring, until it has dissolved.
  • Remove 2 cups of the soup and puree with the tofu until perfectly smooth. Return this mixture to the soup. (If you wish, puree the entire soup.) Taste for salt and for the heat level, adding more cayenne if desired.
  • Serve with 1/3 cup rice mounded in each bowl and plenty of scallions scattered over the top.

PEANUT SOUP



Peanut Soup image

Popularized in colonial Williamsburg, this simple, silky soup gets brightened up with lemon juice and served with diced green apple for a touch of tartness and red pepper flakes for heat.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Soups, Stews & Stocks     Soup Recipes

Time 1h50m

Yield Serves 10 to 12

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 medium carrot, peeled and coarsely chopped (1/2 cup)
1 medium onion, chopped (1 1/2 cups)
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
4 cups unsalted roasted peanuts
8 cups low-sodium chicken broth
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Diced Granny Smith apple and red-pepper flakes, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large pot over medium. Add carrot and onion; season with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are soft but have not taken on any color, about 5 minutes. Add peanuts, broth, and 3 cups water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, until peanuts are tender, about 1 hour, 20 minutes.
  • Working in batches (do not fill jar more than halfway), puree soup in a blender until smooth, about 1 minute. (Or use an immersion blender.) Strain through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing on solids to remove as much liquid as possible. Return to pot and reheat over low, if necessary.
  • Stir lemon juice into soup. Season with salt and pepper and serve, topped with apple, red-pepper flakes, and a drizzle of oil.

RICE CAKES WITH PEANUT SAUCE AND HOISIN



Rice Cakes With Peanut Sauce and Hoisin image

This vegan dish is reminiscent of the classic Cantonese dim sum of fried cheung fun, or steamed rice noodle rolls, which is served with two contrasting sauces: a caramelly hoisin sauce and a nutty sesame sauce. In this recipe, tenaciously chewy rice cakes are stir-fried until crispy, then smothered in a sweet and earthy peanut sauce and finished with syrupy hoisin. Rice cakes deserve to be a pantry staple for many reasons: They can be used as a filling substitute for short pasta, added to stews or quickly pan-fried with your favorite sauce. Sold in Chinese or Korean markets, they come in tubes (like those used in tteokbokki) or sliced disks, and are packaged in vacuum-sealed packs or frozen, so they keep for ages. If you're looking for a suitable substitute, you could use fresh rice noodle rolls, or even gnocchi.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Kosher salt
2 pounds rice cake sticks or sliced rice cakes, fresh or frozen
2 tablespoons neutral oil such as vegetable or grapeseed
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/2 pound yu choy or other Asian greens, halved lengthwise
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce, diluted with 1 teaspoon water
2 scallions, finely sliced
1 tablespoon toasted white sesame seeds
1/3 cup smooth peanut butter (natural or emulsified)
3 tablespoons hot water
1/2 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 garlic clove, grated
1 teaspoon soy sauce

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Add the rice cakes and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until softened. Drain and refresh under cold water.
  • Meanwhile, make the peanut sauce: In a medium bowl, place the peanut butter, hot water, sugar, garlic and soy sauce, and whisk together until combined. Set aside.
  • Heat a large (12-inch) nonstick skillet or wok on medium high. (Check the drained rice cakes. If they are sticking together, rinse them with cold water and gently toss to separate before adding them to the pan.) When the pan is hot, add the neutral oil and rice cakes, and toss to combine. Add soy sauce and stir-fry for 6 to 8 minutes, until the rice cakes begin to caramelize. (If more than a few clump together, add a tablespoon of water at a time and break them up with your spatula.) Add the yu choy and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes, until the greens are wilted. Turn off heat, add the peanut sauce and toss to coat.
  • To serve, drizzle with the diluted hoisin sauce, scatter with scallions and finish with sesame seeds.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality peanut butter. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the soup.
  • Don't be afraid to adjust the seasonings to your own taste. You can add more or less cumin, ginger, or chili powder, depending on your preference.
  • If you don't have any scallions, you can use a small onion instead.
  • Serve the soup with a side of rice or bread for a complete meal.

Conclusion:

Peanut soup with rice and scallions is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a quick and healthy meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover peanut butter. With its creamy texture, savory flavor, and simple ingredients, this soup is sure to be a hit with the whole family. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this peanut soup a try. You won't be disappointed.
