Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 pound broccoli, florets cut into small pieces, stalks peeled and cut into 1/4-inch dice
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon olive oil
2 large russet potatoes, (about 1 pound), peeled and cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Bring 1 1/2 inches of water to a boil in a small saucepan fitted with the steamer insert. Add broccoli; cover, and cook until broccoli is just tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain in a colander, and rinse with cold running water until broccoli has cooled completely.

SIMPLE BROCCOLI STIR-FRY



Simple Broccoli Stir-fry image

Stir-frying has stood the test of time. It's a wonderful way to cook small pieces of vegetables and meat quickly, without a lot of fat. Prepping your ingredients ahead of time and having them near your stovetop is the key to success. This recipe can be made in a large nonstick skillet, but consider purchasing a wok: Carbon steel and cast-iron take on high heat well, and the concave shape makes stir-frying foods easy and fast.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 large bunch broccoli (about1 1/2 pounds)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon vegetable or peanut oil
1 scallion, chopped
2 to 3 cloves garlic, chopped (about 2 teaspoons)
1-inch piece ginger, peeled and chopped (about 2 teaspoons)
Pinch to 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
Cooked white or brown rice, for serving

Steps:

  • Trim the florets off the broccoli, and cut into 1- to 1 1/2-inch pieces. Peel the broccoli stalks with a vegetable peeler to remove the tough outer skin, and slice 1/4 inch thick on the diagonal. Set aside.
  • Whisk together 1/2 cup water, soy sauce, cornstarch and sugar in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • Heat a large wok over high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil, and swirl to coat the wok. Once the oil begins to smoke, add the broccoli florets and stems. Cook, stirring constantly, until browned around the edges, about 2 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons of water to steam the broccoli, and cook, stirring constantly, until tender, about 2 minutes more. Push the broccoli to the edges of the pan, forming an empty well in the center. Add the remaining 1 teaspoon vegetable oil, then the scallions, garlic, ginger and pepper flakes, and stir until aromatic, 30 to 45 seconds. Add the soy mixture, and stir until the sauce has thickened and the broccoli is coated, about 30 seconds. Remove from the heat, add the sesame oil and stir to coat. Serve with rice.

PAN-FRIED BROCCOLI STEMS



Pan-Fried Broccoli Stems image

This was an experiment and now it is a keeper. Peel broccoli stems, slice them thin, and pan-fry in hot oil just until the slices are charred on the edges, then flip over and brown for just a little bit of time on the other side. If you do this just right, the medallions will have edges that are slightly crispy with that wonderful fried flavor, and tender interiors. With a little salt (or even without) they are irresistible. One stem's worth of medallions will disappear quickly, so count on 1 per person (at least!). Although you will use a fair amount of oil for frying, it doesn't all get absorbed by the broccoli stems.

Categories     dinner

Time 5m

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 3

4 to 8 thick broccoli stems
About 4 tablespoons grape seed oil or olive oil
Salt to taste

Steps:

  • Peel broccoli stems and slice crosswise, very thin, about 1/8 inch. (Don't slice paper-thin because then it's too easy to burn them.)
  • Heat a heavy skillet over high heat and add enough oil to coat well (about 1/8 inch of oil in the pan). When oil is hot add broccoli stems in a single layer. (Don't add too many at a time because they will cook quickly and you need to turn them all over before they burn.) Turn heat down to medium-high and cook broccoli stems until edges are lightly brown, then flip over with tongs. Cook for 30 seconds to a minute more and remove from oil. Drain on paper towels, sprinkle with salt, and let cool for about a minute before eating.
  • Continue with all of the broccoli stems, adding oil as needed.

Tips:

  • Pick the right potatoes. Yukon Gold or russet potatoes are the best choices for home fries, as they hold their shape well and have a fluffy interior.
  • Cut the potatoes evenly. This will ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Soak the potatoes in water. This will help to remove excess starch and prevent the potatoes from sticking together.
  • Use a well-seasoned skillet. A cast iron skillet is ideal for making home fries, as it retains heat well and creates a crispy crust.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet. Cook the potatoes in batches if necessary to avoid steaming them.
  • Cook the potatoes over medium heat. This will allow them to cook through without burning.
  • Flip the potatoes occasionally. This will ensure that they cook evenly on all sides.
  • Season the potatoes to taste. Salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika are all good options.
