ROASTED ASPARAGUS AND SCALLION SALAD



Roasted Asparagus and Scallion Salad image

In this hearty, many-textured salad, soft, roasted asparagus is tossed with chewy whole grains and crisp, sweet caramelized scallions. You can use freekeh or farro here for the grains. Both are whole-wheat kernels, but the freekeh has a slightly smoky note from being toasted, while the farro is nuttier-tasting. You can prepare the freekeh or farro ahead and let it marinate in the dressing for up to six hours, but it's best to roast the asparagus and scallions within an hour of serving. Don't use pecorino Romano here, it's too sharp. If you can't find a young pecorino, use a young manchego or even a nice Cheddar, and serve this as a light main course or a salad course to a more substantial meal.

Time 40m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Kosher salt, as needed
1/4 cup freekeh or farro
2 1/2 teaspoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons lime juice
1 small garlic clove, grated on a Microplane or minced
Fine sea salt and black pepper, to taste
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, more as needed
1 bunch asparagus (1 pound), woody ends trimmed
1 bunch scallions (about 5 ounces), halved lengthwise and crosswise to form 2-inch-long ribbons
3 ounces (3 cups) salad greens, such as baby arugula
Pecorino Rossellino or other young sheep's milk cheese, as needed (optional)

Steps:

  • Bring a small pot of heavily salted water to a boil, stir in freekeh or farro, cover, and simmer until al dente, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together 2 teaspoons soy sauce, lime juice, garlic, and pinch salt and pepper. Drizzle in 3 tablespoons oil, whisking constantly.
  • Drain freekeh and stir immediately into dressing while still warm.
  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. Spread asparagus and scallions over a rimmed baking sheet and drizzle liberally with oil, 1/2 teaspoon soy sauce and a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss to combine, then arrange in a single layer. Roast until they start to char in spots, about 20 minutes. Let cool slightly: The asparagus are best while still a little warm but not hot enough to wilt the greens.
  • Toss salad greens in the bowl with freekeh and dressing until leaves are coated, and transfer to serving platter. Top with roasted asparagus and scallions, shave cheese over salad if you like, and serve.

ROASTED ASPARAGUS AND SCALLION QUICHE



Roasted Asparagus and Scallion Quiche image

I've made many a spring quiche filled with asparagus and herbs, yet I'd never thought about roasting the asparagus instead of steaming it. But lately I've been buying thick stalks of asparagus, and all I want to do is roast it; roasting intensifies the flavor and the stalks become incredibly succulent, more so than when the asparagus is steamed. This quality isn't lost even when the sliced stalks are hidden inside a quiche.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     main course

Time 1h

Yield 6 generous servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 pound thick asparagus
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 bunch good-size scallions (the kind you get in the farmers market) or 1 1/2 bunches thin scallions (the kind you get in the supermarket) (about 5 ounces), trimmed, quartered lengthwise and sliced thin
1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon
2 tablespoons minced flat-leaf parsley
2 egg yolks
2 whole eggs
1 (9-inch) whole wheat pie crust, fully baked and cooled
Freshly ground pepper
2/3 cup milk
2 ounces Gruyère, grated (1/2 cup)
1 ounce Parmesan, grated (1/4 cup)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment. Break off and discard woody ends of asparagus and place asparagus on the baking sheet. Drizzle on 1 tablespoon of the oil, add salt and pepper to taste and toss together with your hands until asparagus is thoroughly coated with oil. Place in oven and roast 12 minutes, or until tender and lightly browned in spots, turning asparagus halfway through. Remove asparagus from the oven and allow to cool until you can handle it. Slice into 1/2 to 3/4-inch pieces and place in a medium bowl.
  • Turn oven down to 350 degrees. Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium heat and add scallions. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Remove from heat. Transfer to bowl with asparagus. Add tarragon and parsley and toss together.
  • Beat together egg yolks and eggs in a medium bowl. Set tart pan on a baking sheet to allow for easy handling. Using a pastry brush, lightly brush the bottom of the crust with some of the beaten egg and place in oven for 5 minutes.
  • Add salt (I use 1/2 teaspoon), pepper, and milk to remaining eggs and whisk together.
  • Spread scallion and asparagus mixture in an even layer in the crust. Stir together cheeses and sprinkle evenly on top. Very slowly pour in egg custard over the filling. If your tart pan has low edges, you may not need all of it to fill the shell, and you want to keep the custard from spilling over. Place quiche, on baking sheet, in the oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until set and just beginning to color on the top. Remove from oven and allow to sit for at least 10 minutes before serving. Serve hot, warm or room temperature.

ASPARAGUS WITH TOMATOES



Asparagus with Tomatoes image

This is a delicious way to take advantage of early spring's flavorful asparagus. A great dish to accompany large, busy meals, as most of the work can be done ahead of time and the asparagus reheated with the tomatoes and garlic at the last minute while the roast (or whatever else) is resting. Also a delicious preparation for green beans in place of the asparagus.

Provided by KEANSOR

Categories     Side Dish     Vegetables     Tomatoes

Time 12m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 pound thin asparagus spears, trimmed and cut in half
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 large tomato, seeded and chopped
1 pinch salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Place the asparagus in a large skillet and fill with about 1 inch of water. Cover the pan and set over high heat. When the water comes to a boil, cook for 2 minutes or until the asparagus is bright green and almost tender.
  • In a separate skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the garlic; cook and stir for 1 minute. Add the tomato to the skillet and cook for about 1 minute or until heated through. Season with salt and pepper. Add asparagus to the pan and cook for about 2 minutes, until hot.

Tips:

  • Choose Fresh Asparagus: Select asparagus spears that are bright green, firm, and have tightly closed tips. Avoid spears that are limp, woody, or have yellow or brown spots.
  • Trim the Asparagus: Rinse the asparagus under cold water and pat dry. Bend each spear gently until it snaps naturally. This will remove the tough, fibrous ends.
  • Prepare the Scallions: Trim the scallions and thinly slice them, separating the white and green parts. The white parts will cook faster than the green parts, so it's best to cook them separately.
  • Use High-Quality Sun-Dried Tomatoes: Look for sun-dried tomatoes that are plump, moist, and have a deep red color. Avoid sun-dried tomatoes that are dry, shriveled, or have a bleached appearance.
  • Roast the Vegetables: Toss the asparagus, scallions, and sun-dried tomatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast in a preheated oven until the asparagus is tender and slightly charred.
  • Garnish with Fresh Herbs: Before serving, garnish the roasted vegetables with freshly chopped parsley, basil, or thyme. This will add a pop of color and flavor to the dish.

Conclusion:

Roasted Asparagus with Scallions and Sun-Dried Tomatoes is a simple yet flavorful dish that is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. The asparagus is roasted until tender and slightly charred, while the scallions and sun-dried tomatoes add a touch of sweetness and tang. This dish is also a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables. Serve it as a side dish with grilled chicken or fish, or enjoy it as a light vegetarian main course.
