Balsamic Roasted Shallot Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, shallot, garlic, salt, and black pepper together in a glass jar with a lid. Replace lid on the jar and shake vigorously until thoroughly combined.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Pour boiling water over the shallots to cover them, leave for 5 mins, then drain and peel. Halve any larger shallots. Tip into a shallow ovenproof dish and add all the other ingredients except the olives, plus a little salt and pepper. Mix well.
• Bake, uncovered, for 30-35 mins, stirring halfway through and adding the olives.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Lay the prepared shallots on a baking sheet, drizzle over 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and the balsamic vinegar, then sprinkle over 1 tablespoon of the whole thyme leaves and the sea salt. Gently mix until the shallots are well coated. Cover with foil and roast for 20 minutes, then uncover, toss gently, and cook for a further 10 minutes, until the edges of the shallots start to turn golden brown. (Maybe a little more or less, depending on the size of shallots as they can vary in size).
• Place a clean baking sheet in the oven to heat up. This will allow the base of the pastry to cook and become crisp underneath.
• To make the sauce, add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and the 1 tablespoon chopped thyme leaves to a medium pan over medium heat and let it heat up.
• Meanwhile, to a measuring cup, add the plant-based milk, cornstarch, vegetable bouillon powder and whole-grain mustard and whisk with a fork. Then gradually pour into the saucepan, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. Add the white wine and allow the sauce to gently bubble and simmer to cook off the wine and allow the sauce to thicken so it coats the back of the wooden spoon, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn off the heat.
• Take the shallots out of the oven and turn the temperature up to 400 degrees F.
• Gently fold the roasted shallots into the sauce, taking care they hold their shape.
• Unroll the puff pastry and roll out so it fits into a rectangular 11-by-8-inch fluted tart tin with a removable bottom (if your pastry came as 2 sheets, press them together to create 1 large sheet). Place the pastry in the tin and gently push into the corners. Prick the base of the pastry several times with a fork.
• Sprinkle over the cooked lentils then gently arrange the shallots on top in a vertical pattern for presentation. Drizzle over any remaining sauce.
• Place the tart tin on the heated baking sheet in the oven and bake until the pastry is cooked through and golden brown, about 40 minutes.
• Remove the tart from the oven, gently push up the base to remove the tart from the tin and slide onto a serving platter or wooden board. Garnish with the final tablespoon of whole thyme leaves. Slice into 4 or 6 pieces, depending on preferred serving size.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a 12-inch ovenproof saute pan, add the shallots and sugar, and toss to coat. Cook over medium heat for 10 minutes, tossing occasionally, until the shallots start to brown. Add the vinegar, salt, and pepper and toss well.
• Place the saute pan in the oven and roast for 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the size of the shallots, until they are tender. Season to taste, sprinkle with parsley, and serve hot.

Steps:

• Sprinkle freshly ground pepper over both sides of each steak, and sprinkle with salt to taste.
• Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Place steaks in hot pan, and cook for 1 minute on each side, or until browned. Reduce heat to medium-low, and add balsamic vinegar and red wine. Cover, and cook for 4 minutes on each side, basting with sauce when you turn the meat over.
• Remove steaks to two warmed plates, spoon one tablespoon of glaze over each, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large heavy-bottomed Dutch oven over medium high. Add shallots and thinly sliced garlic, and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the shallots have become totally softened and caramelized with golden-brown fried edges, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Add red-pepper flakes and anchovies. (No need to chop the anchovies; they will dissolve on their own.) Stir to melt the anchovies into the shallots, about 2 minutes.
• Add tomato paste and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring constantly to prevent any scorching, until the tomato paste has started to cook in the oil a bit, caramelizing at the edges and going from bright red to a deeper brick red color, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer about half the mixture to a resealable container, leaving the rest behind. (These are your leftovers to be used elsewhere: in another batch of pasta or smeared onto roasted vegetables, spooned over fried eggs or spread underneath crispy chicken thighs.)
• To serve, cook pasta according to package instructions in a large pot of salted boiling water until very al dente (perhaps more al dente than usual). Transfer to Dutch oven with remaining shallot mixture (or a skillet if you are using the leftover portion) and 1 cup pasta water. Cook over medium-high heat, swirling the skillet to coat each piece of pasta, using a wooden spoon or spatula to scrape up any bits on the bottom, until pasta is thick and sauce has reduced and is sticky, but not saucy, 3 to 5 minutes.
• In a small bowl, combine parsley and finely chopped garlic clove, and season with flaky salt and pepper. Divide pasta among bowls, or transfer to one large serving bowl, and top with parsley mixture and a bit more red-pepper flakes, if you like.

Steps:

• Combine shallots, butter, vinegar, thyme salt and rind, stirring well with a whisk.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• Snap off woody ends of asparagus.
• Arrange spears in a single layer on a shallow baking pan coated with cooking spray.
• Cover with foil and bake for 5 minutes.
• Uncover and bake an additional 10 minutes or until asparagus is crisp tender.
• Pour butter mixture over asparagus, tossing gently to coat.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Generously season both sides of shell steaks with coarse salt and ground pepper. Cook steaks until browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer to a plate; cover loosely with foil, and set aside.
• Reduce heat to medium; add 6 shallots, thinly sliced into rings. Cook, stirring frequently, until softened, 4 to 6 minutes.
• Add balsamic vinegar, coarsely chopped fresh parsley, and any accumulated juices from steaks; cook until sauce is just slightly reduced, about 1 minute. To serve, spoon shallot sauce over steaks.
