Provided by Anne Burrell

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

Kosher salt
Ice
2 pieces bok choy, stems thinly sliced and leaves left whole
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more as needed
4 cloves garlic, minced
1-inch piece ginger, grated
1 cup jasmine rice, rinsed and drained
Two 13-ounce cans coconut milk
1/2 cup plus 1/3 cup chicken stock
1 small bunch cilantro, stems minced and leaves chopped, plus more whole leaves for garnish
1/2 yellow onion, sliced
2 scallions, thinly sliced on a bias, whites and greens separated
2 tablespoons red curry paste
2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon fish sauce
3 teaspoons palm sugar
Zest and juice of 1/2 lime
Two 5-ounce red snapper fillets, skin on
4 large shrimp, deveined and head on and tail on, but rest of shell removed

Steps:

  • Bring a medium pot of water to a boil and season generously with kosher salt; it should be as salty as the sea. Prepare an ice bath and season generously with kosher salt. Add the bok choy stems and leaves to the boiling water and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until they're tender but still have a crunch. Remove the bok choy and immediately plunge into the ice bath and set aside. Drain the water - you can reserve the pot for the curry sauce!
  • To a medium saucepan, add 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, half of the garlic and half of the ginger. Turn on the heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the rice and stir, making sure it's fully coated with the oil, garlic and ginger. Turn up the heat to medium-high and toast the rice for 1 to 2 minutes. Add 1 can of the coconut milk, 1/3 cup of the chicken stock and kosher salt to taste. Bring to a boil, then cover, reduce to a simmer and cook for 18 minutes. Turn off the pan and let sit, without opening the lid, for 10 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork and fold in the chopped cilantro leaves.
  • To make the curry sauce, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil over medium-high heat in the same pot that was used to blanch the bok choy. Add the remaining garlic and ginger, the onion and minced cilantro stems. Cook until softened and fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the scallion whites, red curry paste, 2 tablespoons of the fish sauce and the palm sugar. Stir to combine and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the remaining can of coconut milk and 1/2 cup chicken stock. Bring back up to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and allow to cook for 10 to 15 minutes, until reduced and slightly thickened. Add the lime juice and zest.
  • Pat the skin dry on the red snapper and sprinkle with kosher salt. Heat a large nonstick pan with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high heat. Place the snapper skin-side down into the sauté pan. Place another oiled pan on top of the fish to weigh it down so the skin gets crispy. Cook until the skin is crisp, about 4 minutes, then remove the oiled pan on top and flip the fish. Cook for another 2 minutes, then remove from the pan onto a sheet tray skin-side up. Add the shrimp and cook 2 minutes per side, until pink, then remove from the pan. Add a bit more olive oil to the pan, then add the bok choy and the remaining 1 teaspoon fish sauce. Stir to combine and sauté for 1 to 2 minutes to warm through.
  • Plate the rice and top with the sautéed bok choy. Place the fish and shrimp over the top of the bok choy. Spoon the red curry sauce around the rice, being careful not to cover the fish skin so it stays crispy. Garnish with the sliced scallion greens and cilantro leaves.

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 cups cooked, day-old jasmine rice (or 1 cup uncooked jasmine rice; see Tip)
5 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil
3/4 pound mixed fresh mushrooms, such as shiitake and cremini, thinly sliced, or whole shimeji mushrooms
Kosher salt and black pepper
3/4 pound baby bok choy (about 8 small baby bok choy), trimmed, then sliced crosswise 1/2-inch thick
5 scallions, trimmed, greens and whites thinly sliced (about 1/2 cup)
3 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
1 jalapeño, thinly sliced (optional)
3/4 cup frozen peas
2 to 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh ginger (from one 2-inch piece)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1/8 teaspoon white pepper (optional)
1/2 cup thinly sliced fresh basil

Steps:

  • Take the cooked rice out of the refrigerator, and set it aside at room temperature.
  • In a large wok or nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons canola oil over medium-high. Add the mushrooms, season generously with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and tender, 5 or 6 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl.
  • Wipe out the skillet, if needed, then add 1 tablespoon canola oil and heat over medium-high. Add the bok choy, scallions, garlic and jalapeño, if using. Season with salt and pepper and stir-fry, stirring frequently, until aromatic and barely crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to the bowl with the mushrooms.
  • Add the remaining 2 tablespoons canola oil to the skillet and heat over medium-high. Add the rice and cook, stirring occasionally, until toasted and toothsome, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the frozen peas, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil and white pepper (if using), and stir until rice is evenly coated in soy sauce mixture, and no uncoated rice grains remain, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Stir in the mushroom and bok choy mixture and the basil until basil is wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper then divide among bowls; serve hot.

Tips:

  • To achieve the best texture, rinse the jasmine rice thoroughly before cooking. This removes the starch and prevents the rice from becoming sticky.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven to cook the rice. This will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the rice from burning.
  • Be careful not to overcook the rice. Jasmine rice is best when it is cooked through but still has a slight bite to it.
  • If you are using frozen bok choy, be sure to thaw it before cooking. You can thaw it in the refrigerator overnight or by running it under cold water for a few minutes.
  • Bok choy can be cooked in a variety of ways, including stir-frying, steaming, and boiling. For this recipe, we will be stir-frying the bok choy.
  • When stir-frying the bok choy, be sure to use a high heat and cook the bok choy quickly. This will help to preserve its nutrients and flavor.
  • To make the garlic sauce, simply combine all of the ingredients in a small bowl and whisk until well blended. You can adjust the amount of soy sauce and rice vinegar to taste.

Conclusion:

This jasmine rice with bok choy is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight dinner. The jasmine rice is light and fluffy, while the bok choy is tender and flavorful. The garlic sauce adds a delicious umami flavor to the dish. This recipe is also very versatile and can be easily adapted to your own taste preferences. For example, you can add other vegetables, such as carrots, bell peppers, or snow peas. You can also add some protein, such as chicken, shrimp, or tofu.
