Scallion Rolls Recipes

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add bell pepper, and cook, shaking skillet often, until pepper blisters, 2 to 4 minutes. Stir in 1 tablespoon soy sauce. Transfer to a plate; wipe skillet clean.
• Place each beef slice between plastic wrap; pound lightly until 1/8 inch thick. Season with salt and pepper. Divide bell pepper and scallions among slices. Roll tightly into bundles; secure each with a toothpick.
• Heat remaining tablespoon oil in same skillet over high heat. Working in two batches, sear rolls until browned on all sides, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate; cover to keep warm. Wipe skillet clean.
• Add 2 tablespoons water, remaining 2 tablespoons soy sauce, vinegar, and sugar to skillet. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until sauce is reduced and syrupy, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove toothpicks. Drizzle rolls with sauce.

Steps:

• In a large shallow baking dish, whisk the soy sauce with the marmalade, brown sugar, garlic, sesame oil, sesame seeds, pepper and cayenne powder.
• Bring a large skillet of water to a boil. Add the scallions and cook until bright green, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate and pat dry. Add the asparagus and cook until bright green, about 1 minute; transfer to plate and pat dry.
• Lay a slice of beef on a work surface. Arrange a scallion and an asparagus spear crosswise at a short end and roll up. Add to soy sauce glaze and turn to coat. Repeat with remaining beef rolls.
• Brush a grill pan with canola oil and heat over high heat until smoking. Working in batches, cook beef rolls until nicely charred all over, about 15 seconds per side. Transfer to a platter or plates.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350. Put two 6 cup jumbo muffin pans on a baking sheet. Mix butter, scallions and zest in small bowl.
• 2. Roll dough on lightly floured surface into an 8 x 16 inch rectangle. Spread butter onto dough, then season with salt and pepper. Starting on the long side, roll dough, jelly roll style, into a log.
• 3. Slice log into twelve rolls and put one roll in each cup. Cover rolls with towel and let rise until puffy, about 30 minutes. Remove towel and bake rolls til golden, about 30 minutes more. Let rolls cool 5 minutes before serving. Makes 12

Steps:

• Start a charcoal or wood fire or preheat a gas grill or broiler; the fire should be quite hot.
• Mix together the first 3 ingredients, then soak the scallions or chives in the this mixture while you prepare the meat.
• Place the meat between 2 layers of wax paper or plastic wrap and pound it gently with a mallet, the bottom of a cast-iron pan, or rolling pin until it is about 1/8 inch thick. Brush one side of each piece of meat with a little soy sauce.
• Remove the scallions or chives from their soaking liquid and cut them into lengths about the same width as the meat. Place a small bundle of them at one of the narrow ends of each slice, on the soy-brushed side. Roll the long way, securing the roll with a toothpick or two. (You can prepare the rolls in advance up to this point; cover and refrigerate for up to 2 hours before proceeding.) Brush the exterior of the roll with a little of the soaking liquid.
• Grill or broil until brown on all sides, a total of about 6 minutes for chicken, 4 to 5 minutes for pork or veal, 4 minutes or less for beef.

• Optional fillers: Scallions work very well; so do chives.
• You could also use small amounts of lightly cooked, chopped spinach or chard; cooked, chopped shiitake (or other) mushrooms; julienned and lightly cooked carrots; parboiled asparagus spears.
• As alternatives to soy sauce, you can use asian fish sauce (nam pla or nuoc mam), chinese hoisin sauce, or premade teriyaki sauce.
