Green Bean and Asparagus Salad image

Very tasty salad of roasted asparagus and green beans. I got the inspiration when I was indecisive about choosing between the two vegetables for a side dish. Roasting the vegetables brings out their great flavor and the addition of cherry tomatoes, onion, and fresh parsley give it a lovely color.

ASPARAGUS WITH GREEN GARLIC



Asparagus With Green Garlic image

When you sauté or roast asparagus in hot olive oil, the asparagus will have a much more concentrated flavor than it would if steamed or blanched. Here I add the garlic to the pan once the asparagus is just about done, so that the garlic cooks only long enough to soften and sweeten. You can serve this skillet dish with grains or pasta, or with eggs -- fried, poached or scrambled. I find this asparagus so hard to resist that I decided to give you a range for the weight. One pound is adequate, but you might want to treat yourself to more than that.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     easy, quick, weekday, side dish

Time 10m

Yield Serves four

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 small bulb green garlic that has formed cloves
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 to 1 1/2 pounds asparagus, trimmed and cut on the diagonal into 2-inch lengths
Salt
Freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon chopped flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Separate the garlic bulb into cloves, remove the thick skins from each clove, and cut the garlic into thin slices.
  • Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat in a large, heavy skillet. Add the asparagus and salt to taste. Sauté until the asparagus is tender and the skin has shriveled slightly, about five minutes. Add the garlic, and continue to sauté for another minute until the garlic is translucent. Adjust salt, add the pepper and parsley, and serve.

SIMPLE SPICY ASPARAGUS IN A WOK



Simple Spicy Asparagus in a Wok image

Asparagus doesn't have to be treated as a delicate, fragile thing, napped only with butter or creamy sauces, or served plain with olive oil and salt. That's fine for the first week or two of the season, but then it's time to dial up the interest factor and add some spice. Asparagus actually stands up quite well to aggressive flavors. A quick toss in a hot wok with garlic, ginger and chiles doesn't overwhelm it at all, at least if you don't overcook the spears. Instead, the vegetable's sweetness becomes accentuated by contrast.

Provided by David Tanis

Categories     easy, quick, side dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 pounds asparagus, medium- or pencil-size
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
6 small dried red peppers
Salt and pepper
1/2 teaspoon Chinese chile paste
1 teaspoon grated garlic
1 teaspoon grated ginger
1/2 teaspoon grated orange zest
1 jalapeño or serrano chile, finely chopped
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1/2 cup roughly chopped cilantro
3 green onions, slivered
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Snap off and discard bottoms of asparagus, then cut into 2-inch pieces (halve thicker pieces lengthwise first).
  • Set wok over high heat and add vegetable oil. Add dried peppers and let sizzle, then add asparagus, tossing well to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Stir-fry for a minute or so, then add chile paste, garlic, ginger, orange zest and jalapeño. Continue cooking over high heat for a minute, maybe less, until asparagus is cooked but still firm and bright green. (It will continue cooking off the heat.)
  • Mound asparagus on a serving platter and drizzle with sesame oil. Sprinkle cilantro, green onion and sesame seeds over the top.

Yield 6-8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup shelled fava beans (from about 1¼ lb. pods)
8 oz. asparagus, woody ends trimmed, cut on a diagonal into 1" pieces
5 oz. frozen shelled edamame or 10 oz. edamame pods, shelled (about 1 cup)
4 oz. French green beans, trimmed, cut into 1" pieces
2 lemons
1 orange
2 cups extra-virgin olive oil
5 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
4 sprigs thyme
2 sprigs rosemary
1 Tbsp. plus 1½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or 2½ tsp. Morton kosher salt
1 Tbsp. fennel seeds, lightly crushed
1 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
1 tsp. sugar

Steps:

  • Cook fava beans in a large pot of generously salted boiling water until pale green and tender and skins look swollen, about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer beans to a large bowl of ice water. Let cool completely, about 2 minutes. Remove from ice bath with slotted spoon and peel outer layer from fava beans; set aside.
  • Combine asparagus, edamame, and green beans in the same pot of boiling water and cook until bright green and slightly tender, about 3 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer to ice bath and let sit until cold, about 10 minutes.
  • Using a vegetable peeler, remove zest from lemons, leaving as much white pith behind as possible. Cut lemons in half and squeeze juice though your hand or fine-mesh sieve into a small bowl. Remove peel from orange with peeler; set fruit aside for another use (or eat!)
  • Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium until shimmering, about 5 minutes, then remove from heat. Add garlic and let sizzle until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in lemon and orange zest, thyme sprigs, rosemary sprigs, salt, fennel seeds, red pepper flakes, and sugar. Let cool completely, about 30 minutes.
  • Drain vegetables, discarding any remaining ice cubes, and add to infused room-temperature oil along with lemon juice; stir to combine. Transfer vegetables and oil to a 1½-qt. glass jar; cover and chill at least 4 hours before serving. Do ahead: Vegetables can be marinated up to 6 days ahead. Keep chilled.

ROASTED GARLIC GREEN BEANS OR ASPARAGUS & SAUCE



Roasted Garlic Green Beans or Asparagus & Sauce image

I found that homemade garlic oil is awesome in both asparagus and green beans. You can have them roasted or throw them on the grill for a delicious char.

Provided by Kami Roberts

Categories     Vegetables

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb green beans or asparagus
3 Tbsp olive oil
3 clove garlic
DRESSING OPTION 1
3-4 tsp dijon mustard
1/4 tsp dried rosemary, crushed
salt and pepper
DRESSING OPTION 2
1 Tbsp red wine vinegar

Steps:

  • 1. If using green beans, remove stems and halve. If using asparagus, trim off woody pieces and save for another use. Boil vegetables in salted water, 3 to five minutes. Drain and immediately drop into ice water. Let sit for another three minutes.
  • 2. Meanwhile, mixrowave coarsely chopped garlic and olive oil in 30 second intervals until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic or have the oil too shallow. I do it in a small tea cup. Reserve 1 tablespoon of garlic infused oil and toss the remaining oil with the vegetables and a liberal amount of salt. Sprinkle garlic pieces over vegetables.
  • 3. Roast vegetables in 400 degree oven for thirty minutes. For dressing, try one of the following: 1.) Mix Dijon mustard, rosemary, and desired amount of pepper into remaining oil. Or 2.) mix garlic oil and a tablespoon of red wine vinegar in a dressing bottle. When vegetables are well roasted, drizzle one of the dressings over the vegetables and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest asparagus and green beans: Look for bright green stalks with tight tips. Avoid any limp or wilted vegetables.
  • Prepare the vegetables properly: Trim the asparagus spears and green beans, removing any tough ends. Cut the asparagus into 2-inch pieces and leave the green beans whole.
  • Use a high-quality olive oil: Extra virgin olive oil is the best choice for this recipe, as it has a rich flavor and aroma. You can also use a lighter olive oil, but avoid using vegetable oil.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the vegetables, make sure to not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the vegetables until tender-crisp: You want the vegetables to be tender, but still have a bit of a bite to them. Overcooking will make them mushy.
  • Make the chili orange oil ahead of time: The chili orange oil can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. This makes it a great option for a quick and easy side dish.

Conclusion:

This asparagus and green beans with chili orange oil is a delicious and easy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The vegetables are cooked to perfection and the chili orange oil adds a zesty and flavorful kick. Whether you're serving it for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
