Steamed Spinach With Soy And Oyster Sauce Recipes

SPINACH WITH TAHINI SAUCE

Steps:

• Mix 1 tablespoon tahini, 2 teaspoons low-sodium soy sauce and 1 teaspoon each rice vinegar, sugar and water until smooth. Cook 1 pound spinach (not baby) in salted water until tender, 1 to 2 minutes. Plunge into a bowl of ice water, drain and squeeze dry. Toss with 1 teaspoon sesame oil and season with salt. Drizzle with the tahini sauce and toasted sesame seeds.

QUICK STEAMED SPINACH

Steps:

• Wash spinach in several changes of cold water until free of sand. Remove stems.
• Place a metal steamer in a medium saucepan filled with 1 inch of water. Bring to a boil. Add spinach, cover, and steam for about 3 minutes, or until just wilted. Remove from steamer; season with lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Toss with butter if desired.

ASIAN SAUTEED SPINACH

Steps:

• Heat vegetable oil and sesame oil in a large pan.
• Add garlic and cook briefly.
• Add spinach and cook until the spinach is mostly wilted.
• Add soy sauce to taste and continue cooking just until the spinach has all wilted.
• Serve immediately.

STEAMED SPINACH WITH SOY AND OYSTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Put the spinach leaves on a plate inside a bamboo steamer and place over a wok of boiling water. Cover with a lid and steam for 1-2 minutes.
• Season the steamed leaves with oyster sauce and light soy sauce, and serve straight away.

STEAMED FISH WITH SEASONED SOY SAUCE AND SCALLION

Steps:

• For the sauce: Add the Shaoxing wine to a small pot and heat over high heat until it starts to boil. Add the chicken stock, light soy sauce, sugar, ginger and dried tangerine peel to the pot. Bring to a simmer and stir to dissolve the sugar. Remove the pot from the heat and allow it to steep for 1 hour. Remove the ginger and dried tangerine peel. Set aside the sauce until ready to use.
• For the steamed fish: Pat the fish dry and put on a heatproof plate. Scatter the ginger over the fish.
• Put a steamer rack in a pot wide enough to fit the fish. Add enough water to come almost up to the rack, place over high heat and bring to a full boil. Put the plate with the fish on the rack, cover the pot, lower the heat slightly and steam until the flesh flakes off the bones, 18 to 20 minutes. Pour off any liquid that has accumulated on the plate. Scatter the scallions over the fish.
• Heat the canola oil in a small pot until smoking. Slowly and carefully pour the hot oil over the scallions on the fish; the hot oil will release the aromas and flavors from the scallions.
• Bring the sauce to a simmer. Pour enough sauce around the fish to cover the bottom of the plate by 1/4 inch. Garnish with the cilantro sprigs on top of the fish. Serve immediately.

SPINACH, OYSTER AND CHORIZO STEW

Steps:

• Heat oil in a heavy soup pot over medium-low heat. Add onion, then crumble chorizo into the pot. Cook, stirring often, until sausage is browned, about 10 minutes. Remove sausage and onion, drain well to remove fat, wipe out pot and return sausage and onion.
• Add milk and half-and-half to the pot over medium heat, and heat just until steaming. Add spinach, and simmer a minute or two.
• In a skillet, heat oysters and their liquor just until edges curl up. Pour into pot, and heat until very hot but not boiling. Season to taste with Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper.

SPINACH WITH SESAME SHOYU DRESSING

Steps:

• Rinse spinach and drain lightly. With water still clinging to leaves, cook in 3 batches in an 8-quart pot over moderately high heat, covered, turning occasionally with tongs, until wilted and bright green, 2 to 3 minutes per batch. Transfer as cooked to a colander, then rinse under cold water until cool and drain well. Squeeze small handfuls of spinach to remove as much moisture as possible, then in 3 batches wrap spinach in several layers of paper towels and squeeze to remove even more moisture. Coarsely chop spinach.
• On a 16-inch sheet of plastic wrap, form half of spinach into a 13 1/2- by 1 1/2-inch log. Repeat with remaining spinach on another sheet of plastic wrap. Use plastic wrap and your hands to roll, compact, and smooth sides of logs. Remove and discard plastic wrap. With a sharp knife, cut each spinach log crosswise into 9 (1 1/2-inch) pieces (18 total), then arrange, cut sides up, on a platter, reshaping and smoothing mounds with your fingers.
• Finely grind 2 teaspoons sesame seeds in a blender, then add peanut oil, vinegar, mirin, shoyu, sesame oil, and salt and blend until combined well. Spoon 1 teaspoon dressing over each spinach mound, stirring dressing occasionally (it will separate as it stands), and sprinkle mounds with remaining 4 teaspoons sesame seeds.

STIR-FRIED SPINACH IN GARLIC SAUCE

Steps:

• In a glass measure stir together the broth, the soy sauce, the Scotch, the vinegar, the cornstarch, and the sugar until the cornstarch is dissolved. In a wok or large deep heavy skillet heat the oil over high heat until it is hot but not smoking, in it stir-fry the garlic and the gingerroot for 30 seconds, or until the garlic is golden, and add the spinach in batches, stir-frying until each batch is wilted slightly before adding each new one. Stir the cornstarch mixture, add it to the wok, and stir-fry the mixture mixture for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the spinach is wilted evenly and the sauce is thickened. Serve the spinach with the rice.

SPEEDY SOY SPINACH

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a pan and cook the garlic for a few secs. Tip in the spinach and cook for 2 mins, stirring often until just beginning to wilt. Drizzle over the soy sauce, toss through and scatter with sesame seeds. Great served with chicken or grills.

STEAMED SESAME SPINACH

Steps:

• Fill a large pot fitted with a steamer basket with 1-inch of water; bring to a boil over high heat. Add half of the spinach, cover, and steam until just wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Using tongs, remove spinach from steamer, squeezing gently to remove excess moisture, and transfer to a serving platter. Repeat process with remaining spinach; season with salt.
• In a small bowl, whisk together vinegar, sesame oil, and soy sauce until combined. Drizzle dressing over warm spinach and sprinkle with sesame seeds; serve immediately.
