Broccoli And Dill Raita Slaw Food

SLOPPY BOMBAY JOES

Steps:

• Begin by making the sauce: Warm the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat, until it shimmers. Add the ginger, garlic and serrano pepper. Saute until the ginger and garlic brown a little. Add the garam masala and paprika and saute for 30 seconds. Stir in the tomato sauce and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, until thickened, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile for the turkey, in large skillet, warm 2 tablespoons of oil. When shimmering, add the pistachios and raisins. Cook until the raisins swell up and the pistachios toast slightly. Remove from the pan and set aside.
• Return the pan to medium heat, add 1 to 2 more tablespoons of oil, and warm until shimmering. Add the cumin seeds and allow them to sizzle for about 10 seconds, or until some of the sizzling subsides. Stir in the onions and bell pepper; saute until softened and starting to brown. Add the serrano pepper. Saute for another couple of minutes, seasoning with a little salt. Stir in the turkey, breaking up the big lumps. Cook until opaque, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, your sauce should be ready. Pour the sauce into the skillet with the turkey. Stir and bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer until the mixture has thickened slightly, about 10 minutes.
• Once the turkey is cooked and the sauce has thickened a little, remove the serrano pepper (unless you want to eat it whole, like my Dad does!). Add the honey, half-and-half, pistachios and raisins. Stir through and taste for seasoning. Before serving, garnish with fresh cilantro.
• Toast the buns, fill with the turkey mixture and serve. Eat (with your hands!) and enjoy!

DILLY BROCCOLI SALAD

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the broccoli and cauliflower; set aside. Combine mayonnaise, sour cream, onion, dill and salt; mix well. Pour over vegetables; toss to coat. Cover and chill 4 hours or overnight.

RAMEN BROCCOLI SLAW

Steps:

• Mix slaw, chopped onions, noodles only from Ramen noodles (crush them with your hands), almonds and sunflower seeds together in bowl.
• Make dressing w/oil, vinegar, sugar, and add the 2 packets of flavoring from the Ramen noodles.
• Add dressing to your taste- I used about half.
• Note: Instead of white vinegar and sugar, I used 1/2 cup of flavored rice vinegar.

FISH TACOS

Steps:

• For the fish: In a bowl, combine the oil, spices, salt and pepper. Add the fish and make sure each piece is coated with the marinade.
• For the mayo: Put the mayonnaise, garlic, mint, cumin, and lime juice in a food processor. Whizz until smooth. Season with salt, pepper, and more lime juice, if necessary. Pour into a bowl and set aside.
• Grab a large, nonstick saute pan and warm it gently over medium heat; no need to add oil since the fish is already coated in oil. Once warm (test by sprinkling some water into the pan, if it sizzles and evaporates, you're ready), place each piece of fish in the pan. It should sizzle gently but firmly when it hits the pan. Cook until cooked through, but still moist, about 3 minutes per side. The fish should flake easily with a fork. Don't overcook your fish! It'll taste awful!
• Remove the fish from the pan and serve immediately with warmed tortillas. I put a light layer of cabbage on the bottom, then the sauce, a few chunks of fish, the scallions, a couple of slices of banana pepper, and a squeeze of lime. And once the fish is finished off, you can do what I do, and make cabbage tacos - everything except the fish! So good!

RHUBARB ROSEWATER PARFAIT

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, combine the rhubarb, strawberries, lemon zest, juice, and sugar. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring every now and then. Once the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is at a boil, turn it down to a simmer and cook until rhubarb is soft and falling apart, another 5 minutes. Remove from the heat. Add the rosewater and stir. You can serve the compote warm or cold.
• In a small, nonstick skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sugar, cardamom, almonds, and a pinch of salt. Cook, tossing occasionally, until the almonds are toasted and the sugar caramelizes and sticks to the almonds.
• To build a parfait, spoon 1 cup yogurt into 4 bowls, spoon about 1/2 cup of compote over the top, and sprinkle candied almonds to finish.
• Cook's Note: If you're using fresh rhubarb, peel the fibrous strings off the outside of the rhubarb using a paring knife (dip the knife under the top layer of the rhubarb stalk and peel down to the end of the stalk).

SWEET AND SPICY SLAW

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl combine slaw mix and red onion; set aside.
• In a small mixing bowl, stir together remaining ingredients and pour over slaw mix. Toss to combine. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, if desired.
• Refrigerate 1 hour before serving.

RAITA (YOGURT-DILL SAUCE)

Steps:

• Put the yogurt in a medium nonreactive bowl.
• Halve the cucumber lengthwise and scoop out the seeds.
• On the large holes of a box grater, grate the cucumber into the bowl of yogurt.
• Add the dill, salt, and cumin and stir well to combine.
• Refrigerate the sauce for at least 15 minutes for the flavors to combine.
• Serve cold.
• You can also add some halved cherry tomatoes for a colorful, quick salad.

BROCCOLI WITH LEMON AND DILL

Steps:

• In a large saucepan cook and stir onion and garlic in hot oil about 3 minutes or until tender. Add broth; bring to boiling. Add broccoli. Return to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 8 to 10 minutes or until tender. Transfer vegetables to a serving platter, reserving broth in pan (add additional broth, if necessary, to measure 1/2 cup).
• In a small bowl combine lemon juice and cornstarch; add to broth in saucepan. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly; cook and stir for 2 minutes more. Stir in dill. Season to taste with kosher salt and pepper. Spoon sauce over vegetables; toss to coat. If desired, garnish with lemon slices.
