New Potatoes With Rosemary And Garlic

 

Recipe By :

Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00

Categories : Side dish Vegan

Vegetables

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

12 very small new potatoes -- scrubbed (12-16)

1 head garlic

4 sprigs fresh rosemary

pinch sea salt

1 tablespoon margarine -- butter or

olive oil

 

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. If potatoes are too large, cut them into quarters.

Separate garlic cloves and remove skins. Rinse rosemary.

 

Cut parchment paper into four 12-or 18-inch squares. Crease each piece in half;

then lay flat and open. Place 3 or 4 potatoes near the crease. Add a few garlic

cloves, a sprig of rosemary, and a sprinkle of sea salt. Dot with margarine,

butter or oil. Fold the parchment over the potatoes, so the edges meet. To seal,

fold the edges of the parchment, like closing a turnover or calzone (see diagram

on page 30). Bake for 30 minutes. The paper will puff up slightly and brown on

the edges.

 

At serving time, slice open paper with a knife or carefully unfold the edges.

Serve directly from the paper, or place potatoes, garlic and " drippings " on a

plate. Serves 4. V/L

 

Note: Parchment paper, also called baker’s paper, is a thick, strong white paper

that is used to line cake pans, cookie trays and baking dishes. It is available

in supermarkets and in kitchen and gourmet stores.

Vegetable Brochettes With Rosemary And Sage

 

Recipe By :

Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00

Categories : Entree Grilling

Vegan Vegetables

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

MARINADE:

2 tablespoons minced fresh rosemary -- (2-3)

2 tablespoons minced fresh sage

1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme

3 cloves garlic -- minced (3-5)

pinch white pepper

2 teaspoons prepared mustard

1/4 cup mirin or pineapple juice

1 tablespoon soy sauce -- (1-2)

1 tablespoon lemon juice -- (1-2)

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 dash hot pepper sauce or roasted sesame oil

VEGETABLES (FOUR OR MORE OF THE FOLLOWING):

18 small mushrooms -- (18-24)

2 small zucchini

2 small yellow squash

1 small bunch broccoli

2 carrots

1 red or yellow pepper

3 scallions -- (3-4)

1 pint cherry tomatoes

olive oil for grilling (optional)

 

Combine marinade ingredients in a large, shallow dish. (Feel free to add more or

less of any ingredient, according to taste.)

 

Wash vegetables. Trim ends off mushrooms, but leave whole. Slice zucchini and

yellow squash into 1/4-inch rounds (or quarters if they are large). Remove

broccoli florets from stems. Slice carrots into thin diagonal rounds. Slice

pepper, remove seeds and membranes, and cut into large, bite-sized pieces. Trim

scallions and slice into 2-inch pieces. Trim tomatoes but leave whole. Place

vegetables into marinade; toss to coat. (If you use a large selection of

vegetables, you may need to add extra soy sauce, mirin and juice.) Allow to

marinate for about 30 minutes.

 

To assemble brochettes, you need 24 bamboo skewers (6 to 10 inches long). Place

a carrot or pepper piece on each skewer, leaving an inch or more at the end;

this piece secures the other vegetables. Alternate vegetables to contrast colors

and shapes. Transfer brochettes back to marinating dish and pour remaining

marinade over them. Cover and refrigerate until ready to cook.

 

To cook, place brochettes directly on a hot grill or under a broiler. Cook each

side for 5 minutes or longer, depending on how crunchy you like your vegetables.

Brush with oil during cooking if desired.

 

Serves 4 to 6. V

 

Variations: Add other fresh herbs of your choice, such as oregano, marjoram,

tarragon or parsley, to the marinade.

 

For Tofu Brochettes, thoroughly drain a pound of firm tofu; slice into cubes.

Place cubes in a shallow bowl with additional marinade. Let sit for several

hours. (In warm weather, refrigerate while marinating to avoid spoilage.)

Combine with vegetables on kebab sticks, then cook.
