ASPARAGUS WITH WALNUTS, PARMESAN AND BROWN BUTTER



Asparagus With Walnuts, Parmesan and Brown Butter image

Here's a sophisticated yet simple way to prepare spring's trademark vegetable. Steam the asparagus. Brown a knob of butter in a sauté pan and toss in a handful of chopped walnuts, garlic and fresh thyme (lemon thyme if you can find it). Whisk in a 1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese, then pour over your awaiting asparagus. Dive in.

Time 10m

Yield 4 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 bunch asparagus (about 3/4 pound), ends trimmed
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves, preferably lemon thyme
1 ounce Parmesan, finely grated (1/4 cup)
Kosher salt, as needed
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Steam the asparagus until just tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook until the foam has subsided and the butter turns a deep golden brown, about 4 minutes. (Take care that it doesn't burn.) Stir in the nuts and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir in the garlic and thyme and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Remove from heat and whisk in the cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon nut mixture over warm asparagus and serve at once.

ROASTED CABBAGE WITH PARMESAN, WALNUTS AND ANCHOVIES



Roasted Cabbage With Parmesan, Walnuts and Anchovies image

Roasting cabbage wedges at high heat makes them crisp at the edges and tender in the middle. Here, the lacy crevices between the leaves are stuffed with a piquant mix of anchovies, walnuts and Parmesan, giving the sections crunch and a deep savory flavor. Serve them as a light, meatless main course, paired with noodles, rice or crusty bread, or as a hearty side dish to roast chicken or fish.

Categories     vegetables, main course, side dish

Time 45m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 medium head green cabbage (about 2 1/2 pounds)
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more as needed
Salt, as needed
3/4 cup finely grated Parmesan, plus more for serving
6 anchovy fillets, minced
2 fat garlic cloves, finely grated, passed through a garlic press or minced
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more as needed
2/3 cup chopped walnuts or other nuts, such as almonds or hazelnuts
1/2 cup chopped fresh dill or cilantro

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450 degrees. Cut the cabbage in quarters lengthwise through the core, then cut out the cores and stem. Slice the quarters lengthwise into 1 1/2-inch-thick wedges.
  • Place wedges on a rimmed sheet pan, flat sides down. It's OK if the pan seems a bit crowded; the wedges will shrink as they roast, but try not to overlap them if possible. Lightly drizzle them with oil and season with salt.
  • In a small bowl, combine Parmesan, anchovies, garlic, thyme and black pepper. Stir in 1/2 cup oil to make a loose paste. Massage paste into each cabbage wedge, stuffing the mixture in between the leaves.
  • Lightly drizzle cabbage with a little more oil. Roast until cabbage is lightly browned in spots, 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Remove pan from oven and sprinkle walnuts all over the top of the cabbage. Roast for another 5 minutes or so, until cabbage is tender and caramelized and the walnuts are golden and toasted.
  • Sprinkle cabbage with dill and more Parmesan and black pepper, if you'd like. Serve immediately.
