Pasta With Garlicky Greens And Fried Eggs Food

PASTA WITH WILTED GREENS, BACON AND FRIED EGG

Steps:

• Cook pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water until it's just al dente. (It should still have quite a bite to it; you'll finish cooking it in the skillet.) Drain, reserving 1 cup pasta water.
• Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until it has rendered all its fat and the pieces are crispy, 5 to 7 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate or bowl, leaving the fat behind in the skillet; set bacon aside.
• Return the skillet with the bacon fat to medium-high heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Fry the eggs, using a spoon to encourage the bacon fat to come up around the whites and cause them to puff slightly. Cook the eggs until the whites are just set and crisped around the edges and the yolk is still bright yellow and runny, about 3 minutes.
• Using a spatula, transfer eggs to another paper towel-lined plate, leaving the bacon fat behind; set eggs aside.
• Return the skillet with the bacon fat to medium heat and add the garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until it's softened and lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Add kale by the handful, letting it wilt between additions, and season with salt and pepper. Cook until the kale is totally wilted and softened, about 4 minutes.
• Add pasta and 1/2 cup pasta water to the skillet, using a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits on the bottom. Season with salt and plenty of fresh ground pepper. Continue to cook at medium heat, tossing the pasta occasionally, until the sauce has thickened and reduced by about half, about 2 minutes.
• Add remaining 1/2 cup pasta water and continue to cook, tossing to encourage the starches to release, until you've got a thick, glossy sauce, about 2 to 3 minutes. (The pasta should also be completely tender at this point.) Add 1/4 cup grated cheese and more freshly ground pepper; toss to coat.
• Divide pasta among bowls and crumble crispy bacon over. Top with additional cheese and a fried egg. Make sure to break the yolk before eating.

SPAGHETTI WITH FRIED EGGS

Steps:

• Bring a pot of salted water to the boil. Start the sauce in the next step, and start cooking the pasta when the water boils.
• Combine garlic and 4 tablespoons of the oil in a small skillet over medium-low heat. Cook the garlic, pressing it into the oil occasionally to release its flavor; it should barely color on both sides. Remove the garlic, and add the remaining oil.
• Fry the eggs gently in the oil, until the whites are just about set and the yolks still quite runny. Drain the pasta, and toss with the eggs and oil, breaking up the whites as you do. (The eggs will finish cooking in the heat of the pasta.) Season to taste, and serve immediately, with cheese if you like.

FRIED EGGS WITH GARLICKY GREEN RICE

Steps:

• Cook rice with 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt according to package instructions. Set aside, covered, to steam.
• Meanwhile, heat the oil over medium in your largest skillet or griddle until glistening. Crack in the eggs and cook until golden-brown around the edges, about 2 minutes. Cover loosely using a lid or aluminum foil and cook until the whites are just set and the yolks are still runny but starting to set. (They'll break and mingle with the rice in a beautiful way.) Season with salt and pepper.
• While the eggs cook, fluff the cooked rice with a fork, then stir in the kale, cilantro and parsley. Add the garlic and jalapeño a little at a time and taste, adding more salt, garlic or jalapeño to your liking.
• Spoon rice into shallow bowls and top with the fried eggs, radishes, cheese and lime wedges. Serve with your hot sauce of choice.

PASTA WITH GARLICKY GREENS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a frying pan. Add the leeks and garlic and let them soften for 15 mins. Stir in the spinach or kale for final few mins to wilt. Add the crème fraîche, stir and remove from the heat.
• Cook the pasta in plenty of boiling water. Drain the pasta, put it back in its saucepan, then stir the leek sauce into it. Serve in bowls with crumbled blue cheese on top.

BEANS-AND-GREENS PASTA WITH FRIED EGGS

Steps:

• Bring a large saucepan filled two-thirds full of water to a boil. Add a small handful of salt and the spaghetti. Cook for 2 minutes less than the package directions recommend.
• Meanwhile, heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Spoon four 1-tablepoon rounds of Parmesan into the skillet, leaving space between each. Cook until the cheese is melted and the edges are lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Using a thin spatula, flip the rounds and cook until golden and the chips start to stiffen, 1 to 3 minutes longer. Transfer the frico to a plate to cool and crisp. Do not wipe out the skillet.
• Drain the spaghetti in a colander and rinse under cool water to prevent sticking. Wipe out the saucepan the pasta was cooked in. Place over medium heat and add the oil. Add the onion, garlic and a generous pinch each of salt and pepper. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softened and just starting to brown, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the same skillet over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and sprinkle with salt. Immediately reduce the heat to low and cook until the whites are firm but the yolks are still runny, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Add the broth to onion and garlic in the saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Stir in the chickpeas and lemon zest and juice. Add the spinach, pasta and the remaining 1/4 cup of Parmesan. Cook over medium heat, tossing gently, until the spinach is just wilted and the pasta is heated through; season with salt and pepper.
• Divide the pasta among shallow bowls. Top each with a fried egg and a crumbled frico. Serve with more Parmesan.

LINGUINE WITH FRIED EGGS AND GARLIC

Steps:

• Cook linguine according to package directions for al dente. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil and 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat until butter melts. Stir in garlic; cook until golden, about 1 minute. Add pepper flakes., Break two eggs, one at a time, into a custard cup or saucer; slip into skillet on top of garlic and pepper flakes. Reduce heat to low; cook until whites are completely set., Drain linguine; return to pan. Add cooked egg mixture; stir in 2 tablespoons cheese, salt and pepper, tossing to coat. Keep warm. In the same skillet, heat remaining oil and butter over medium heat. Break remaining eggs, one at a time, into a custard cup or saucer; slip into skillet. Reduce heat to low; cook until whites are set and yolks begin to thicken, turning once if desired., Serve pasta in individual bowls. Top with fried eggs, additional cheese for sprinkling and, if desired, parsley.

FRIED SPAGHETTI WITH EGGS

Steps:

• Begin by separating the room temperature eggs. In a small bowl, you will want to have egg whites. Set aside. In a medium-sized bowl, you will need to put the egg yolks. You want the yolk bowl a bit bigger bowl to add the parmesan. Whisk the eggs so that yolks are creamy. Whisk in 2 Tablespoons of the parmesan cheese with the yolks and set aside keeping it at room temperature.
• Once both cloves of garlic are crushed, the peel falls right off. Remove the peels. Warm the olive oil in a 10" skillet over medium-low heat for 1 minute. Reduce to low heat and add the crushed garlic and let it warm in the olive oil slowly for 3-4 minutes. Once the garlic is just starting to brown, you want to remove it. You do not want to burn or "cook" the garlic, it is more about getting the essence of the garlic to flavor the olive oil slowly.
• Add the pasta and stir to combine and coat with the garlic-infused oil. Let it fry in the skillet on medium-high heat in an even layer for 5 minutes. Toss with tongs every minute or so to ensure all sides of the spaghetti get fried.
• Turn the heat down to low and let the heat come down for 2 minutes. To the spaghetti add the egg whites to cook over low heat. Gently scramble them and coat the pasta. Once heated through and combine, try and get it in a single layer in the pan so some of the pasta and eggs can fry a bit. You don't want to burn the eggs but get them a little bit fried. Turn off the heat to cool it a bit from the fried stage. You want it warm but not blazing hot.
• Add two tablespoons of the egg yolk mixture to the warm pasta. Toss with tongs to combine so the warm pasta can gently warm up the egg yolks. Do not add it HOT or all of the egg yolks at once as it will cook/scramble the egg yolks. You want the egg yolks to combine with the pasta slowly and warm just enough to create a creamy sauce. Add a small amount of pasta at a time, stir and repeat 2-3x. Once all the egg yolk mixture is combined with the pasta, add additional parmesan cheese at this time and toss in the pan with tongs.
• Divide the fried spaghetti into two pasta bowls. Top with fresh parsley and additional parmesan cheese as a topping. Also, add salt & fresh cracked pepper to taste and serve.
• Enjoy immediately.

CREAMY GARLIC PASTA

Steps:

• Heat olive in a medium pan over medium heat. Add garlic and stir until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add butter and stir constantly until melted. Pour in chicken broth; add pepper and salt. Bring to a boil. Add spaghetti and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Add more chicken broth if pasta starts to stick to the pan.
• Stir Parmesan cheese, cream, and parsley into the pasta and mix thoroughly. Serve immediately.

BALSAMIC FRIED EGGS WITH WILTED GREENS (IN UNDER 10 MINUTES)
