Chili Peanuts With Anchovies Recipes

CHILI PEANUTS WITH ANCHOVIES

Steps:

• In a small saute pan, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. Add anchovies, and fry until crisp but not browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove to a small bowl.
• Drain chilies. In a mortar, combine chilies and shallot and pound together with a pestle.
• In a wok or medium saute pan, heat remaining oil over medium heat. Add chili mixture, salt and sugar, and saute for 1 minute. Increase heat to medium-high, and add peanuts and anchovies. Fry for 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove to a bowl, and serve. Peanuts can be stored in a tightly closed jar in refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.

SPAGHETTI WITH ANCHOVIES, DRIED CHILI AND PANGRATTATO

Steps:

• In a thick-bottomed pan add most of your olive oil and your whole garlic cloves and heat. Add thyme and bread crumbs, they will fry and begin to toast, but watch out because they will spit. Stir for a couple of minutes until the bread crumbs are really crisp. Season with a little salt and pepper, and lay on a kitchen towel, just to get rid of the excess oil (if any, and remove the garlic cloves). Place spaghetti into fast-boiling, salted water and, while cooking, add leftover oil and chopped garlic in a pan and heat gently. As the garlic begins to soften lay the anchovies over the top. After a few minutes you will see the anchovies begin to melt, then it is a nice idea to squeeze the juice of 1/2 to 1 lemon and sprinkle in dried chili. When your spaghetti is cooked until al dente, drain and toss into your pan with the anchovies. Make sure all the spaghetti is coated in sauce and then taste 1 piece of pasta, it might need a little more lemon juice and a little extra seasoning. Serve on a plate straight away, topping with a really generous sprinkle of bread crumbs and thyme, an extremely tasty dish.;

CHILI-SPICED PEANUTS

Steps:

• In a nonstick pan over high heat, toast peanuts for 2 to 3 minutes, shaking pan or stirring often until nuts begin to smell toasty. Pour into a bowl and set aside.
• Decrease heat under pan to medium and sprinkle sugar, cayenne pepper and salt evenly into it. Melt mixture slowly, stirring a bit with a heat-proof silicone spatula. When sugar has melted, add peanuts to pan and coat well. Mixture might clump a bit.
• Pour nuts onto parchment paper. As soon as mixture is cool enough to handle, break apart any clumps of peanuts. Serve with wedges of lime. Squeeze lime over nuts right before eating.

AMALFI LEMON, CHILLI & ANCHOVY SPAGHETTI

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan over a low heat and fry the garlic for 2-3 mins, or until just turning golden at the edges. Remove from the heat and leave for 15 mins for the garlic to infuse in the oil.
• Meanwhile, cook the pasta following pack instructions until al dente. Drain, reserving 150ml of the cooking water. Remove the garlic from the infused oil, then tip in the cooked spaghetti, the chillies, anchovies, parsley, lemon zest and juice, and the parmesan. Add 50ml of the reserved water and toss with tongs until combined. Add a little more water to loosen, if you like. Season. Divide between four shallow bowls.
