菊芋
Posted: 2012-12-14 13:12
英国好像没有CSA,我从一个类似网站订附近农场的有机蔬菜,经常有些神奇的蔬菜出现. 今天有一袋看上去象生姜/芋头的jerusalem artichoke 的中文名字查了一下叫菊芋,跟英文名字耶鲁撒冷朝鲜蓟一点关系都没有。再查了一下图片,上面长的象菊花,根象芋头,还是中文名形象。找了个菊芋通心粉的菜谱,先削皮煮熟,尝了一下,哇,神奇,真的就是朝鲜蓟的味儿。artichoke 和西红柿搭配做通心粉挺常见,用来搭海鲜也不错,试了试这个菊芋,因为比较粉,跟西红柿一起化作黏糊糊的酱,做出来pasta还挺好吃的。


Jerusalem artichoke pasta
3 or 4 Jerusalem artichokes
1 large bunch of chard
2 tomatoes
1 onion
4 cloves of garlic
1” of fresh ginger root
1 large bunch of parsley
A handful of black & green olives
Olive oil
Flavoured sea-salt (chilli is great)
Dried Provençal herbs
Pasta - spaghetti, enough for 4.
Peel with a potato peeler the Jerusalem artichokes and boil for 10 or 15 minutes, until soft but not mushy.
In a pan heat up 20 tablespoons of olive oil.
Sauté 1 inch of peeled & minced fresh ginger root with a pinch or 2 of sea-salt for 10 minutes, making sure they don’t burn.
Add the onion, peeled and finely sliced and after 5 minutes, the chopped parsley.
After another 5 minutes, add the garlic, peeled and finely sliced, & the Jerusalem artichokes, sliced.
Sauté for 5 minutes, & add the chard, finely sliced and a little more sea-salt.
Sauté for 15 minutes, add the olives, whole or sliced and 2 tomatoes, sliced. Sauté for a few minutes more, squeeze the juice of half a lemon and add the cooked spaghetti. Mix well & serve.
