Macaroni With Hazelnut And Coriander Sauce Recipes

MACARONI PASTA BAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350° F. Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish or other large rectangular baking dish.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package directions for al dente. Be careful to not overcook the pasta. Reserve ½ cup of the pasta cooking water and then drain the pasta. Return the drained pasta to the pot.
• Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the onion and bell pepper to the pan and cook, stirring often, until the vegetables soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Add the ground beef to the pan. Crumble the beef and cook until it is browned.
• Pour the marinara sauce and reserved ½ cup of pasta cooking water into the skillet. Stir in the salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for about 10 minutes.
• Pour the meat and sauce mixture from the skillet into the pot with the pasta. Stir. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese. Transfer the pasta mixture to the prepared casserole dish. Top with the mozzarella cheese.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the casserole is hot and the cheese is lightly browned on top. Let stand for 5 minutes and then serve.

HAZELNUT AND CORIANDER SPICED SOUS-VIDE SALMON

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Roast the nuts in a baking pan until the skins are dark brown, about 10 minutes. Wrap them in a dish towel, rub briskly to remove the skins, then coarsely chop.
• In a dry skillet over medium-high heat, toast the coriander seeds, stirring constantly, until golden brown and fragrant, about 3 minutes. Crush in a mortar and pestle or with a spice grinder.
• Add the nuts, sesame seeds, chamomile, ginger and 1 teaspoon salt to the grinder or mortar and grind to a coarse powder. Work in batches if necessary. Place in an airtight container and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Season the fish with salt and pepper. Place a large pot in your sink, and add warm water until the pot is full and the water reaches 115 degrees. Place two fillets side by side in a gallon-size heavy-duty resealable plastic bag. Drizzle fillets with oil. Submerge the bags halfway into the warm water (this creates a vacuum). Seal as airtight as possible, pushing out any excess air. Repeat with the remaining fillets.
• Once all the salmon fillets are submerged in the pot, add more hot water until the water temperature returns to 115 degrees (the cold fish will reduce the water temperature). Let the salmon rest in the water bath about 20 to 25 minutes until its core temperature is 113 degrees (remove and check one fillet with an instant-read thermometer). Check the water temperature occasionally and add more hot water as needed to maintain the temperature of 115 degrees.
• Transfer the salmon bags to a cutting board. Remove fish from plastic bags and gently pull off the skins (or use a butter knife). Transfer the cooked fillets to a plate for easier handling.
• Melt the butter in a skillet over medium-low heat. Add about 2/3 of the fish spice, and increase the heat until the butter just starts to bubble. Sear the fillets on both sides in the pan while basting with the hot butter, about 30 seconds. Serve immediately, sprinkled with more fish spice, if desired.
