MISO CARROT SAUCE WITH GINGER (JAPANESE SALAD DRESSING)



Miso Carrot Sauce With Ginger (Japanese Salad Dressing) image

Really nice dressing! One measure of a good home cook is the ability to make your own salad dressing. Or so says Mark Bittman in the food section of the New York Times. This is the orange dressing you sometimes see on your too-cold salad in Japanese restaurants. I made this tonight, and thought it was much better than any other I ever tried at a Japanese restaurant! I made this with half the corn oil, so if you'd like to try the original recipe you can increase amount to 1/4 cup. I did not decrease the sesame oil (but did use regular).

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 lb carrot, peeled and grated on the large holes of a box grater
2 garlic cloves, lightly crushed

2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/4 cup fresh lime juice

Steps:

  • Puree carrots, garlic, habanero, salt, lime juice and 1 cup water in a blender on high speed, until completely smooth and no large chunks remain. Transfer to a 1-qt. jar or a nonreactive container and cover loosely with plastic wrap and poke a few holes in the plastic to allow the hot sauce to breath. Let sit at room temperature for at least 24 hours before serving and up to 3 days.

STUFFED VEAL SCALLOPS WITH A MUSHROOM SAUCE AND CARROT ROSTI



Stuffed Veal Scallops With a Mushroom Sauce and Carrot Rosti image

My veal scallops were huge, in fact I have never bought scallops of veal this big before, I made one per person. I have made this before with small veal scallops and I made three per person, I used about 1-2 teaspoons of stuffing for each slice and made them as little bundles, so either way will work fine. You will see from the photograph just how large it was I was able to cut each veal scallop into four pieces. Maybe where you are in the world this will not seem strange to you, this may be standard size, but where I am I usually get small scallops of veal, not that I am complaining it was delicious and took me half the time because I wasn't rolling up 12 little rolls, just 4 huge ones.

Categories     Veal

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 34

4 large veal scallops or 12 small veal scallops
olive oil
2 shallots, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, crushed
30 -40 g butter
250 g mushrooms, 1 cup finely chopped mushrooms for the stuffing (save the remaining mushrooms for the sauce.)
2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, finely chopped
1 tablespoon thyme leaves
4 fresh sage leaves, finely chopped
3 slices bacon, rashers chopped
1/2 cup herb stuffing mix (I use paxo sage and onion.)
100 ml hot water
butter (extra)
1/2 teaspoon vegetable stock
130 g veal mince
1 large egg, lightly beaten
2 -3 tablespoons parmesan cheese
8 -16 slices prosciutto (8 if slices are thick, 2 per scallop, 16 if thin, 4 per scallop. If using small veal scallops I do 3)
10 -12 mushrooms, sliced thinly (the remainder of mushrooms from the 250g.)
1 -2 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup water
1 teaspoon instant chicken bouillon granules
50 ml thick double cream
50 ml light cream
pepper
3 tablespoons bisto, chicken instant gravy granules (I use bisto brand.)
1/2 cup sour cream (light is fine)
1 1/2 teaspoons cumin
1 tablespoon dill, finely chopped
5 medium carrots, coarsely grated (about 600g in weight)
2 eggs, lightly beaten (you may only need 1, mine were of a small weight.)
1 egg white, lightly beaten
1/3 cup plain flour, 50g

Steps:

  • Add a little olive oil to a pan, add shallots and garlic, cook until onion softens. Add butter and melt, add mushrooms, cook and stir until liquid has evaporated.
  • Meanwhile in a small pan cook chopped bacon, until browned.
  • Add herbs and bacon to mushroom mix and stir to combine, remove from heat.
  • Boil some water, add a knob of butter and veg stock to a measuring jug, pour 100ml of hot water into jug, stir until butter has melted and stock has dissolved. Add this liquid to the stuffing, mix to combine, finally add this to the mushroom mix.
  • Add the veal mince to the pan and stir to combine, add the egg and Parmesan cheese, again stir to combine.
  • Season veal scallops with salt and pepper, spread stuffing over veal, leaving just a small border around the edge. Roll scallop up and wrap prosciutto slices around the veal to secure. If you have any stuffing left over I just cook that separate.
  • Heat a small amount of oil in a pan add rolls to brown both sides. Transfer to a lightly oiled ovenproof dish, drizzle a little oil over veal rolls and bake at 180ºC for 30-40min's or until done. Check regularly towards the end of cooking as you do not want to over cook and toughen it up.
  • Sauce.
  • While pork is cooking make the sauce, add the oil to a pan along with the sliced mushrooms. Cook until mushrooms are browned and soft, add wine and water, simmer a few minutes to reduce slightly.
  • Add chicken stock and stir to dissolve, add thick double cream first and stir until it well combined, add light cream, season with pepper, finally add gravy granules and stir to thicken, serve over veal.
  • Carrot Rosti.
  • Combine sour cream, cumin and dill in a small bowl, refrigerate until needed.
  • Combine carrot, egg, egg white and flour in a large bowl, Cook serving spoon size rosties in an oiled pan until browned on both sides and cooked through. Drain on absorbent paper.
  • Note:I say serving spoon size as you want it bigger than a tablespoon, they should be large in diameter but quite flat, you will get the idea from the picture.
  • Serve with sour cream mixture.
  • To Serve: Either arrange little rolls on a plate and pour sauce over or slice into thin slices if you have used larger scallops like me and again pour sauce over. Place some salad greens on plate top with carrot rosties and dollop with sour cream mix.

SEARED SEA SCALLOPS WITH CARROT MARJORAM SAUCE



Seared Sea Scallops with Carrot Marjoram Sauce image

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Seafood Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups carrot juice
1/2 cup dry white wine, or dry vermouth
3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 medium shallot
1/4 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable or olive oil
4 tablespoons chilled unsalted butter, cut into 8 pieces
8 three inch sprigs fresh marjoram, tied together with kitchen twine
1 1/2 pounds (about 12) large sea scallops

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, combine carrot juice, 1/4 cup wine, lemon juice, shallot, and salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat just enough to maintain a steady boil. Cook until slightly thickened (it should resemble the consistency of pulpy orange juice) and reduced to about 1/2 cup, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Reduce heat, and very gently simmer the carrot reduction. Whisk in butter one piece at a time, waiting until each piece is melted and incorporated before adding another. The sauce should be thickened enough to lightly coat the back of a spoon. Return the sauce to a simmer, whisking constantly. Submerge the bundle of marjoram in the sauce, and remove from heat. Let marjoram infuse sauce while you cook the scallops.
  • Heat oven to 175 degrees. Turn off the oven, and place a platter in it to warm. If the scallops have small, loosely attached, rectangular pieces of white muscle on their sides, pull them off, and discard. Pat the scallops dry with paper towels, and season all sides lightly with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large heavy-bottomed sauté pan over high heat until it is very hot and smoking. Using tongs, carefully place the scallops flat side down in the pan. Let the scallops cook undisturbed until they are golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn, and cook until the other side is browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer scallops to warmed platter. Reduce heat to medium, and pour in remaining 1/4 cup wine. Scrape up browned bits, then add liquid to carrot mixture.
  • Remove marjoram bundle from carrot sauce, squeeze it dry, and discard. Reheat sauce over medium heat, whisking constantly. Taste, and adjust seasoning. For a very smooth texture, pass sauce through a very fine strainer. If the sauce begins to separate or the butter comes to surface in droplets, blend the sauce for a few seconds using an immersion blender. Divide scallops among warmed dinner plates, and pour carrot sauce around them. Serve.

CARROT PASTA SAUCE



Carrot Pasta Sauce image

The fresh ingredients and the short cooking time, make this a perfect light summer pasta dish. I found this recipe online claiming to be a fake tomato sauce. It doesn't taste like tomato, but then again it doesn't really taste like carrot either. The way all of the flavors mesh, it's really an indescribable flavor. Everyone seems pretty skeptical until they try it.

Tips:

  • Choose the right carrots: For the best flavor, use fresh, organic carrots. Look for carrots that are firm and brightly colored.
  • Roast the carrots before blending: Roasting the carrots intensifies their flavor and gives the sauce a rich, smoky taste. You can roast the carrots whole or chopped.
  • Use a high-powered blender: A high-powered blender will ensure that the sauce is smooth and creamy. If you don't have a high-powered blender, you can use a regular blender, but you may need to blend the sauce in batches.
  • Season the sauce to taste: Season the sauce with salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dollop of yogurt for a tangy flavor.
  • Serve the sauce warm or cold: Carrot sauce can be served warm or cold. It's delicious on its own, or you can use it as a dipping sauce for vegetables, crackers, or chips.

Conclusion:

Carrot sauce is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of ways. It's a great way to add flavor and nutrition to your meals. Whether you're using it as a dipping sauce, a marinade, or a pasta sauce, carrot sauce is sure to please everyone at your table.
