CARROT PARSNIP STIR-FRY



Carrot Parsnip Stir-Fry image

Orange carrot slivers and yellow parsnips make a pretty and different side dish. If parsnips aren't available, you could substitute rutabagas or turnips. Usually, I saute the vegetables until they are crisp-tender. But they're also good quite well-cooked, almost browned. -Lavonne Hartel Williston, North Dakota

Skillet -Roasted Carrots and Parsnips image

It's best to use parsnips less than an inch wide as wider parsnips tend to have tough, fibrous cores that are best trimmed and discarded. Using warm water will help the sugar dissolve more readily. This recipe is based from a recipe I acquired by Cook's Country

STIR-FRIED CARROTS AND PARSNIPS WITH SPICY PORK



Stir-Fried Carrots and Parsnips with Spicy Pork image

I based this on a Cantonese dish my dad would make when I was growing up. He would take hours chopping, dicing and slicing and then throw it all into a boiling hot wok and dinner would be served within two minutes. I think he loved the cinema of this type of cooking. I miss him and the dish so much that I came up with a simplified weeknight version of it. Don't like spicy food? Simply omit the red pepper flakes. Serve this with bowls of steamed rice.

Time 25m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon canola oil
1 pound (16 ounces) ground pork
Kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 large cloves garlic, grated on a rasp grater
2 medium carrots, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch rounds
1 large or 2 medium parsnips, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch rounds
1 large knob ginger, grated to equal about 2 tablespoons
5 ounces (half a 10-ounce package) frozen peas, defrosted
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar, plus more if needed
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
1 tablespoons white sesame seeds, toasted
4 scallions, thinly sliced, green and white parts both
Cooked rice for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Cook the pork: Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the oil. When the oil begins to smoke lightly, break the pork into small pieces, add the pork in an even layer and season generously with salt and the red pepper flakes. Brown and cook the pork until the pink is gone, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Add the vegetables and finish: Stir in the garlic, carrots and parsnips and continue stirring and cooking until the vegetables are tender and mixed in, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the ginger, peas and vinegar with the hoisin. Shut off the heat and taste for seasoning. Add more vinegar and/or salt if needed. Stir in the sesame seeds and scallions. Serve immediately, with cooked rice if desired.
