STIR-FRIED WILD RICE WITH ASPARAGUS AND MUSHROOMS



Stir-Fried Wild Rice With Asparagus and Mushrooms image

A wonderful combination of flavors. Serves 4 as an entree or 6 as a hearty side. Add grilled tofu chunks for more protein. If you can't afford shitake mushrooms, it would probably be good with creminis. Cooking time includes rice, which you can do ahead of time. I cooked the 2 different kinds of rice together in a rice cooker with lots of water for about an hour. Adapted from The One-Dish Vegetarian by Maria Robbins.

STIR-FRIED ASPARAGUS WITH BACON AND CRISPY SHALLOTS



Stir-Fried Asparagus With Bacon and Crispy Shallots image

Quickly sauté spring asparagus and top with bacon, crispy fried pickled shallots, and Chinese white soy sauce.

Provided by Jonathan Wu

Categories     Bon Appétit     Asparagus     Vinegar     New York     Shallot     Soy Sauce     Cornmeal     Bacon

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 cup black vinegar
1/4 cup sherry vinegar
2 small shallots, thinly sliced into rings
4 ounces slab bacon, cut into 1x1/4-inch pieces
1 tablespoon vegetable oil, plus more for frying (about 3 cups)
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup fine-grind cornmeal
Kosher salt
1 pound asparagus, trimmed, thinly sliced on a diagonal
1 tablespoon white soy sauce
Special Equipment
A deep-fry thermometer

Steps:

  • Combine both vinegars in a medium bowl. Add shallots and let sit, tossing occasionally, 1 hour. Drain and pat dry.
  • Meanwhile, cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until most of fat is rendered and bacon begins to brown, 5-7 minutes. Transfer to paper towels. Pour off fat; reserve for another use (scrambled eggs!). Wipe out skillet; reserve.
  • Fit a medium pot with thermometer and pour in oil to come 2" up sides of pot. Heat over medium-high until thermometer registers 300°F. Whisk flour and cornmeal in a shallow bowl. Dredge shallots in flour mixture, shaking off excess. Fry, tossing occasionally, until golden and crisp, about 3 minutes. Transfer to paper towels; season with salt.
  • Heat reserved skillet over medium-high. Swirl remaining 1 Tbsp. oil in pan to coat (this keeps food from sticking); pour out excess. The oil should be shimmering-if it's not hot enough, the asparagus will steam not caramelize. Add asparagus, season with salt, and cook, tossing, until almost cooked through, about 1 minute. Add bacon and 1 Tbsp. water; cook, tossing, until asparagus is cooked through, about 30 seconds. Add soy sauce; toss to coat. Serve topped with shallots.
