Best Mixed Vegetables With Anchovies And Olives Recipes

MIXED GREEN SALAD WITH LEMON, OLIVES AND ANCHOVIES

Steps:

• Toss greens with lemon juice, salt and pepper. Coat greens with oil and toss them again. Add olives to the salad bowl and arrange anchovies around the salad bowl. Sprinkle with chopped chives to garnish.

CAULIFLOWER WITH ANCHOVIES AND CRUSHED OLIVES

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the anchovies, and let them melt and sizzle in the olive oil, about 2 minutes. Add about ¾ of the cauliflower, season with salt and pepper and stir to coat. Cook, tossing occasionally, until the cauliflower is browned on one side, 4 to 7 minutes. Add the olives and half of the oregano and give it a stir. Continue to cook until the cauliflower is completely softened and evenly browned, another 4 to 7 minutes.
• Remove from heat and transfer to a large bowl along with scallions, preserved lemon (if using), vinegar and remaining raw cauliflower. Season with salt, pepper and more vinegar, if you like.
• Transfer cauliflower to a large serving platter or bowl and top with parsley, remaining oregano and a drizzle of olive oil.

MIXED VEGETABLES WITH ANCHOVIES AND OLIVES

Steps:

• Place eggplant pieces in large colander set over bowl. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon salt. Let stand 1 hour. Pat eggplant dry with paper towels; set aside. Char peppers over gas flame or in broiler until blackened on all sides. Enclose in paper bag 10 minutes. Peel and seed peppers; cut into 1/2-inch-wide strips and set aside.
• Heat 6 tablespoons oil in heavy large pot over medium heat. Add onions and sauté until light golden, about 10 minutes. Mix in garlic. Add eggplant, zucchini, tomatoes, half of parsley, bay leaves, 1 teaspoon pepper, honey, and cumin. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes. Add bell peppers; cook uncovered 10 minutes longer, stirring occasionally. (Can be made 6 hours ahead. Chill. Rewarm before continuing.)
• Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in small saucepan over low heat. Add anchovies, oregano, and remaining parsley; stir 1 minute. Add to vegetable mixture. Stir in olives. Season with salt and pepper. Serve warm or at room temperature.

BROCCOLI WITH ANCHOVIES AND GARLIC

Steps:

• Cut off the broccoli tops into individual florets. Cut the stems crosswise into 2-inch lengths. Trim off the outside of the stems and cut the trimmed pieces diagonally into 1/4-inch slices. There should be about 6 cups in all.
• Bring enough water to a boil to cover the broccoli when it is added. Add salt and the broccoli pieces and cook 3 minutes. Drain.
• Heat the oil in a skillet and add the broccoli pieces. Cook, stirring, over relatively high heat, and add the garlic, pepper flakes and anchovy paste. Cook, tossing and stirring the ingredients together, about 1 minute. Serve.
