LANGOUSTINE AND SAMPHIRE STIR-FRY



Langoustine and Samphire Stir-Fry image

This is fabulous quick and easy dish to serve when you have guests. It only calls for a handful of ingredients but it is nutritious and tasty, provided you can get your hands on garlic chives, which are fragrant and impart a garlicky onion flavour. These can be found in the Chinese supermarkets. Or you could use baby tender leeks and spring onions to give the same sort of flavour. If you like experimenting with your greens and you have a good fishmonger, you can also ask for some Marsh Samphire. These are little hardy cactus looking plants which can be found along the coast so you can pick-your-own at low tide. In the UK, the best place to pick these is along the Norfolk coast! With Marsh Samphire, you can boil them in some water for 2 to 3 minutes, drain and then add them to this dish instead of the garlic chives, crunchy and delicious in the final stages of the stir-fry, this marriage would make this dish almost perfect! If you can't get hold of fresh samphire, why not try cooked samphire preserved in brine it's just as tasty and gives this dish a salty sweet edge.

SAMPHIRE STIR FRY



Samphire Stir Fry image

Russ went and picked samphire down on the salt marshes today, then stir fried it to go along with a salmon dish we had at dinner. Young samphire is a little like asparagus (and often called sea asparagus) older stuff develops a woody core and you eat it a bit like aritichoke leaves pulling it through your teeth. It seems it grows throughout the world. Food.com doesn't recognise "samphire" and if you don't either, I suggest you look it up on Wikepedia. It's good and it's free!
