STEGT RODSPAETTE (SAUTÉED FLOUNDER W/SHRIMP)

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Seafood Main dish

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
4 Flounder fillets, 1/2 lb ea.
Salt
Flour
1/2 c Bread crumbs — dried
2 md Eggs
2 tb Water
8 tb Butter (1 stick)
2 tb Vegetable oil
1/2 lb Shrimp — cooked, small,
-peeled and deveined
Lemon wedges

“Plaice is the fish the Danes usually prepare in this
manner, but flounder is an excellent American
substitute. Danish shrimp are the 1″ variety similar
to U.S. West Coast shrimp. Choose the smallest fresh
shrimp available.” Rince the fish in cold water and
pat dry with paper towels. Salt lightly, dip in flour
and shake off excess. Spread the bread crumbs on wax
paper. In a mixing bowl beat the eggs together with 2
tablespoons of water, then dip each fillet into the
egg mixture and coat each side thoroughly with the
bread crumbs. Let them rest for at least 10 minutes
before cooking. Heat 2 tablespoons of butter and 2
tablespoons of oil in a heavy 10-12″ skillet over
moderate heat. Add the shrimp and toss them in the
butter for 2 to 3 minutes until well coated. Place a
line of the shrimp down the center of each fillet.
Melt the remaining butter over low heat until it turns
a rich, nutty brown, pour over the fish fillets and
garnish with lemon wedges. If you prefer, serve with a
parsley sauce (see recipe) in place of the shrimp and
brown butter.

  • Gamberi in Padella (Garlicky Pan-Roasted Shrimp)

    Recipe By : The Little Dishes of Italy: Antipasti
    Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
    Categories : Antipasto Seafood
    Italian

    Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
    ——– ———— ——————————–
    1/2 pound large shrimp — peeled
    2 teaspoons sea salt
    1/4 cup olive oil
    2 cloves garlic — finely chopped
    1 pinch red pepper flakes
    or
    1 whole hot peppers — dried, to taste
    1/4 teaspoon salt — to taste
    2 tablespoons dry white wine
    1 tablespoon fresh Italian parsley — chopped

    Remove the dark intestinal veins from the shrimp. As you do, make each
    cut deep enough to butterfly the shrimp, so each can be opened flat like
    a book. Fill a bowl with ice water, add the sea salt and the butterflied
    shrimp, and let stand for 15 minutes to bring out some of the briny
    flavor of the shellfish. (Removing their shells robs the shrimp of some
    of their natural flavor.) Drain and dry thoroughly with a cotton kitchen
    towel.

    In a large skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the garlic
    and hot pepper and sautee gently until the garlic softens but is not
    browned, about two minutes. Add the shrimp, placing them opened flat on
    the bottom of the pan so they do not curl too much. Sautee, turning
    once, until they are opaque, about two minutes on each side. Add the
    wine, stir and cook for an additional 30 seconds to allow alcohol to
    evaporate. Remove and discard the whole peppers, if using. Sprinkle with
    parsley and serve immediately.

    Variation with tomato: Add 1 small ripe tomato, peeled, seeded and
    coarsely chopped, or two canned plum tomatoes, seeded and coarsely
    chopped, to the sauteed shrimp in the skillet. Stir to mix, then add the
    wine and proceed with the recipe.

    NOTES : Gamberi in Padella (Garlicky Pan-Roasted Shrimp)

    c 1996 thrive@the healthy living experience
    all recipes: “The Little Dishes of Italy: Antipasti” by Julia Della
    Croce c 1993

    Here is one of the most popular ways for cooking shrimp in Italy
    and throughout the Mediterranean. Good Italian or French bread should
    always be served with this dish for sopping up the garlicky sauce.

    CHILE-FRIED SQUID (SAMBAL CUMI-CUMI)

    Recipe By :
    Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
    Categories : Indonesian Condiments
    Ceideburg 2

    Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
    ——– ———— ——————————–
    1/2 lb Squid
    1/2 c Diced onion
    2 Cloves garlic, minced
    3 Or 4 semi-hot fresh red
    -chiles, minced, or 1
    -teaspoon sambal ulek
    1/2 ts Kosher salt
    2 tb Oil
    1 t Paprika, if needed
    2 tb Tamarind Water or lemon
    -juice

    In its most authentic form, this sambal is bright red with chile and
    quite hot. If you prefer it a little milder, use fresh chiles that
    are not too hot, such as the milder strain of jalapenos now on the
    market; otherwise, use less chile and make up the color difference
    with paprika.

    [Personally, I’d use crushed and soaked annatto seeds. They add red
    color without the paprika taste. S.C.]

    1. Clean squid. Remove purplish outer skin and cut sacs into rings.

    2. To prepare in a mortar: Pound onion, garlic, chiles, and salt
    together to a coarse paste. To prepare in a blender or food
    processor: Grind together with oil.

    3. In a wok or skillet, heat oil over low heat and add paste. (If
    oil was used in grinding paste, add paste to dry pan.) Cook slowly
    until quite fragrant and oil is well stained with red. Add paprika
    if necessary to enhance color.

    4. Turn heat to medium-high, add squid and Tamarind Water, and cook
    just until squid is done (about 2 minutes). Serve hot or at room
    temperature.

    Serves 4 to 6 with other dishes.

    Title: White and Dark Chocolate Dogwood Bark (Marcel
    Categories: Desserts, Bakery
    Yield: 1 servings

    3 c Pecan halves
    6 oz White chocolate; chopped
    -into
    12 oz Semisweet chocolate; chopped
    Into

    Recipe by: BAKERS’ DOZEN (MARCEL DESAULNIERS) SHOW Preheat the oven
    to 325 degrees . Toast the pecans on a baking sheet in the preheated
    oven for 8 minutes. remove the nuts from the oven and set aside to
    cool at room temperature until needed. Heat 1 inch of water in the
    bottom half of a double boiler over medium heat. With the heat on,
    place the white chocolate in the top half of the double boiler. Use a
    rubber spatula to stir the chocolate until completely melted and
    smooth, about 4 minutes. Transfer the melted chocolate to a 1-quart
    bowl and set aside. Thoroughly wash and dry the top half of the
    double boiler. Heat 1 inch of water in the bottom half of a double
    boiler over medium heat. With the heat on, place the semisweet
    chocolate in the top half of the double boiler. Use a rubber spatula
    to stir the chocolate until completely melted and smooth, about 6
    minutes. Transfer the melted chocolate to a 4-quart bowl. Allow the
    chocolate to stand at room temperature for 5 minutes before
    proceeding. Add the pecans to the bowl of melted semisweet chocolate.
    Use a rubber spatula to fold in the pecans until combined. Pour the
    chocolate pecan mixture onto a nonstick baking sheet with sides and
    use a rubber spatula to spread evenly. drizzle the white chocolate,
    one tablespoon at a time, over the entire surface of the chocolate
    pecan mixture. Use a rubber spatula to spread and blend the white
    chocolate into the surface of the chocolate pecan mixture creating a
    marbleized effect (be careful not to overblend which would diminish
    the marbleized effect). Allow the mixture to cool at room temperature
    for 30 minutes. Cover the baking sheet with plastic wrap and
    refrigerate until the bark is hard, about 1 hour. Remove the baking
    sheet from the refrigerator and transfer the bark to a cutting board.
    Use a cooks knife to cut the bark into irregular pieces. Refrigerate
    in a tightly sealed plastic container until ready to use.

    1 t Salt

    1 c Shredded Mozzarella
    1 tb Sundried tomatoes — crumbled
    2 tb Dehydrated onion
    1 t Minced basil
    2 c Bread flour
    1 tb Dry milk
    2 ts Dry yeast

    I’ve been playing around with these ingredients and my husband thinks
    I should “go public” with this recipe! It’s for a bread machine, but
    you could make it by hand in the conventional way, too. In my
    Zojirushi machine the crust is rather dark (but still delicious) so
    other machines may need a light crust setting. Enjoy! Place ingred.
    in B/M in order given (start at bottom for>>>> Welbilt/Dak) set crust
    to light and bake on white bread setting. I’m munching on the “heel”
    as I type and am thinking about how good a sandwich will be in a few
    hours! Maybe next time I’ll add pepperoni and have all the sandwich
    ingredients in each slice. It has a real pizza taste! LINDA IN
