Provided by Sunny Anderson

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 bunch asparagus, trimmed and peeled if tough
4 scallions, trimmed
Olive oil, for brushing
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups vegetable stock, warmed
1/2 cup whole fat plain Greek yogurt, at room temperature
1/4 cup lightly packed fresh Italian parsley
Zest of 1 lemon
1 clove garlic, grated
1/2 cup apricot jam
1/4 cup sambal oelek
2 ciabatta rolls, sliced in half
2 cups shredded Italian blend cheese
1/4 cup whole fat plain Greek yogurt
1 to 2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon honey

Steps:

  • For the soup: Preheat a grill for direct and indirect cooking or oven to 400 degrees F. If using a grill, set a wire rack directly on the grill grate.
  • Brush the asparagus and scallions all over with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and place over the direct heat of the grill. Cook, turning a few times, until limber and partially charred, 2 to 4 minutes. Remove to a cutting board.
  • Make the toast: In a small bowl mix the jam and sambal. Spread on the cut side of the rolls. Divide and pile the cheese on top of the jam on each roll and place over the indirect heat of the grill (directly on the grates or on a baking sheet). Cook, covered, until the cheese is melted, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Build the soup. Transfer the grilled veggies to a cutting board and roughly chop. Add to the jar of a blender. Add the stock, yogurt and parsley and blend until smooth.
  • Put the soup, lemon zest, garlic and salt to taste in a medium pot over medium-high heat and bring to a simmer. Cook for a few minutes to warm through. Taste and adjust the seasonings if needed.
  • To finish the soup: In a small bowl, whisk together the yogurt, lemon juice and honey. Pour the soup into bowls. Spoon 3 drops of the yogurt mixture into each bowl and run a skewer in a circle through the yogurt mixture to make a decorative pattern.
  • Serve the toast alongside the soup.

CREAMED HAM AND ASPARAGUS

CREAMED ASPARAGUS



Creamed Asparagus image

I made this last Easter instead of creamed spinach to accompany our leg of lamb dinner. It was a major hit, so I'll be making it again this year.

Provided by JoAnn Cambareri

Categories     Side Dish     Vegetables     Asparagus

Time 20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound asparagus spears
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
½ cup beef broth
½ teaspoon garlic powder
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
¼ cup whipped cream cheese
2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
¾ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Rinse asparagus under cool water to remove any grit. Snap off the bottom inch or so using your fingers; the stems will naturally break where the tough woody part ends and the tender stem begins. Remove the ends. Dry the spears by rolling them between two kitchen towels. Cut into 1-inch pieces.
  • Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add asparagus, beef broth, and garlic powder. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until asparagus is crisp-tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Add sliced mushrooms and cook until tender, 3 to 5 minutes more. Reduce heat to low; add cream cheese, yogurt, nutmeg, and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until cheese is melted and creamy, about 3 minutes.
