ASPARAGUS-MUSHROOM-LEEK SAUTé

We have made this in the past with green beans but my daughter doesn't like "squeeky foods" so we substitued asparagus. The flavor combinations make a great side dish and a nice alternative way to cook asparagus.

ROASTED ASPARAGUS WITH CRISPY LEEKS AND CAPERS



Roasted Asparagus With Crispy Leeks and Capers image

In this supremely springy recipe, thick asparagus stalks and thinly sliced leeks are glossed with olive oil and covered in salty capers. Everything is roasted in the same pan and emerges tender and golden-edged. Capers also make an appearance in the mustard sauce served alongside, which adds a tangy, mayonnaise-like richness. You can double the recipe, if you wish, though you may have to increase the roasting time by a few minutes to make up for a more-crowded pan. Serve this on its own as a first course, or as an accompaniment to roast chicken, braised meats or seared fish. Just don't use thin asparagus: It'll cook too quickly, before the leeks have a chance to turn golden. Stick with spears that are at least 1/2 inch in diameter.

Categories     vegetables, side dish

Time 20m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound thick asparagus, ends trimmed
2 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 large leek, white and light green parts, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
2 tablespoons drained capers
Lemon wedges, for serving
1/4 cup parsley, leaves and tender stems, torn
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons drained capers, finely chopped
1 small garlic clove, finely grated or minced
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. Put asparagus on a rimmed sheet pan and toss with 1 tablespoon oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt until well coated.
  • In a small bowl, stir together leeks, remaining 1 tablespoon oil, and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Sprinkle leeks on top of asparagus, then sprinkle with capers. Roast until asparagus are tender and golden brown, about 12 to 18 minutes.
  • While the asparagus stalks roast, make the mustard sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together mustard, capers and garlic. Slowly whisk in olive oil a few drops at a time to create a thick, emulsified dressing. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Once asparagus stalks are out of the oven, squeeze a lemon wedge over it and sprinkle parsley on top. Serve with mustard sauce and more lemon wedges on the side.

ASPARAGUS-MUSHROOM SAUTE



Asparagus-Mushroom Saute image

This is a quick and easy dish that could be served any night of the week. It is also elegant enough to be served at a dinner party. I think the flavor combination of asparagus and mushrooms best accompanies beef, but you could serve with any meat of your choice. This dish could also be served over brown or white rice as a main dish vegan alternative (Note: This would reduce the number of servings from four to two).

ASPARAGUS-MUSHROOM SAUTé WITH CREAM



Asparagus-Mushroom Sauté with Cream image

This combination of oyster mushrooms and asparagus hits the spring vegetable sweet spot. Raleigh, NC chef Ashley Christensen adds cream and finishes with porcini butter, a flavorful compound butter you should make in advance. It's an optional addition, but its earthy punch makes this dish a knockout.

Provided by Ashley Christensen

Categories     side-dish

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 ounce dried porcini mushrooms
2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature, make ahead of time; see step 2 for cooking instructions
1 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1/2 pound oyster mushrooms, torn into bite-sized pieces
Sea salt
2 tablespoons minced shallots, about 1 medium shallot
2 sprigs thyme
1 pound asparagus, ends trimmed, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/2 cup amontillado sherry (or white wine), preferably Lustau brand
1/3 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, cold, (use 2 tablespoons if not using porcini butter)
1 tablespoon porcini butter, cold (optional)
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat until shimmering. Add mushrooms to the pan in an even layer. Sear, stirring a few times, until the moisture from the mushrooms has evaporated and the edges begin to crisp, 1-2 minutes. (If the pan seems dry as the mushrooms cook, add remaining ½ tablespoon oil.) Add the shallots and thyme; stir to coat and cook, 1 minute. Add asparagus and a pinch of salt, and continue cooking until the asparagus are bright green and slightly soft, 1-2 minutes depending on asparagus size.
  • Add sherry and swirl the pan until the liquid has reduced by ¾. Add heavy cream and let it reduce until it has thickened slightly, 2 minutes. Stir in one tablespoon of butter and one tablespoon of porcini butter, and continue sautéing until the sauce coats the vegetables, 1 more minute. Turn off heat. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt if necessary, and finish with lemon juice. Serve immediately. Porcini Butter: In a small saucepan combine mushrooms with just enough water to cover them. Bring to a boil; reduce to a simmer and cook on low heat for 45 minutes. Mushrooms should be soft, with a bit of liquid in the pan. Purée mushrooms and remaining liquid with butter until smooth. Transfer to a lidded container and refrigerate until ready to use. Porcini butter can be stored in the refrigerator up to 2 weeks and in the freezer up to 3 months.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, tender asparagus. Look for spears that are bright green and have tightly closed tips. Avoid spears that are wilted, woody, or have brown spots.
  • Trim the woody ends of the asparagus spears. Simply snap off the bottom inch or two of each spear where it naturally breaks.
  • Use a variety of mushrooms. This recipe calls for cremini mushrooms, but you can also use shiitake, oyster, or portobello mushrooms. Just be sure to clean and slice them before cooking.
  • Don't crowd the pan when cooking the vegetables. If you overcrowd the pan, the vegetables will steam instead of sautéing. Cook them in batches if necessary.
  • Season the vegetables to taste. Add salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings to taste.
  • Serve immediately. Sautéed vegetables are best served hot, so enjoy them right away.

Conclusion:

This easy and delicious sautéed asparagus, mushroom, and leek recipe is a great way to enjoy fresh spring vegetables. It's also a versatile dish that can be served as a side dish, main course, or even an appetizer. So next time you're looking for a quick and healthy meal, give this recipe a try!
