LE CIRQUE'S SPAGHETTI PRIMAVERA



Le Cirque's Spaghetti Primavera image

This is Sirio Maccione's own creation, as it was served at his famous restaurant. The list of ingredients is long but it is really quite simple dish. You can substitute good, organic diced tomatoes for the fresh. This will serve 8 as an appetizer or 4 as a main dish.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 50m

Yield 4-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 lb broccoli
2 small zucchini
4 asparagus spears, trimmed, about 5-inch long
1 1/2 cups green beans, trimmed and cut into 1-inch lengths
1/2 cup green peas (fresh or frozen)
3/4 cup pea pods (fresh or frozen) (optional)
1 tablespoon canola oil
2 cups mushrooms, thinly sliced
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon red chilies or 1 teaspoon green chili
1/4 cup parsley, finely chopped
6 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic, finely chopped
1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried)
3 cups tomatoes, ripe, peeled, seeded, cut into chunks (reserve the liquid)
1 lb spaghetti
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons unsalted chicken stock, preferably homemade
1/2 cup heavy cream
2/3 cup parmigiano-reggiano cheese, freshly grated
1/3 cup pine nuts

Steps:

  • Trim broccoli and break into small florets (reserve stems for another use).
  • Trim the ends of the zucchini but do not peel.
  • Cut each zucchini into quarters lengthwise and then cut each quarter into 1" pieces--you should have 1 and 1/2 cups of zucchini, not more.
  • Cut each asparagus spear into thirds.
  • Cook each of the green vegetables separately in boiling salted water to cover, just long so that each vegetable remains crisp but tender (Broccoli, zucchini, asparagus and green beans about 5 minutes, peas and pea pods about one minute if fresh, 30 seconds if frozen).
  • Drain well then rinse in cold water, drain again, and combine the vegetables in a mixing bowl.
  • Heat the canola oil in a skillet and add the mushrooms, season to taste with salt and pepper and cook about two minutes.
  • Add mushrooms to the bowl of mixed vegetables.
  • Add the chopped chiles and the parsley to the mixed vegetables.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a saucepan and add half the garlic, all the tomatoes and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Cook for about 4 minutes, stirring gently so as not to break up the tomatoes.
  • Add the basil, stir and remove from heat, keeping it covered.
  • Cook the spaghetti in boiling salted water until al dente; drain and return to the pot.
  • Heat the other 3 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet and add the remaining garlic and all the vegetable mixture.
  • Cook stirring gently, just to heat through.
  • In a pan large enough to hold the pasta and the vegetables, melt the butter.
  • Once melted, add the chicken broth, the cream, and the parmesan, cooking gently on and off heat till smooth.
  • Add the spaghetti and toss quickly to blend.
  • Add half the vegetable mixture and the reserved liquid from the tomatoes, tossing over very low heat.
  • Add the remaining vegetables, and, if the suace seems too dry, about 1/4 cup more cream--but the sauce should not be soupy.
  • Add the pine nuts and give the mixture a final toss.
  • Place equal amounts of the pasta mixture in 4 or 8 shallow soup bowls, depending on whether this is to be an appetizer or a main dish.
  • Spoon equal amounts of the tomato mixture over each portion.
  • Serve immediately.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb green beans, trimmed and halved
1 cup basil leaves, loosely packed
2 large garlic cloves
4 tablespoons parmigiano-reggiano cheese, freshly grated
1/2 cup olive oil
3/4 lb fettuccine pasta
salt
freshly grated pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Bring a good sized pot of salted water to a boil and add the green beans and cook, perhaps as much as five minutes, but you must check--the beans should be tender but still crisp.
  • Drain and set aside.
  • Place basil, garlic, parmigiano and olive oil in a food processor or blender and puree until smooth -- you should have about 3/4 of a cup of the mixture.
  • Meanwhile, cook the fettucine in boiling salted water until al dente, drain the pasta, and reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta water.
  • Melt one tablespoon of the butter in a large skillet and gently saute the green beans to warm them, seasoning with salt and pepper.
  • Toss the pasta in with the beans.
  • Add the basil puree, the pasta water and the remaining butter and stir well.
  • Taste, adjust seasoning, and serve.

PASTA PRIMAVERA



Pasta Primavera image

I see you rolling your eyes at the thought of spaghetti primavera. The dish, rarely seen now, became an absurdity of 1980s so-called seasonal cooking. Meant to be an expression of spring, the mad jumble of vegetables over pasta was mostly an expression of the death match between French and Italian cuisine (cream versus olive oil, sauce versus pasta). But in the late 1970s, when New York's Le Cirque popularized spaghetti primavera, Craig Claiborne and Pierre Franey called it "by far, the most talked-about dish in Manhattan." I encourage you to make Le Cirque's version, all 10 pain-in-the-neck steps of it, because despite its tempestuous origins, it's wonderful.

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 bunch broccoli
2 small zucchini, unpeeled
4 asparagus spears
1 1/2 cups green beans
Salt
1/2 cup fresh or frozen peas
3/4 cup fresh or frozen pea pods
1 tablespoon peanut, vegetable or corn oil
2 cups thinly sliced mushrooms
Freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon minced hot red or green chili, or 1/2 teaspoon dried red-pepper flakes
1/4 cup finely chopped parsley
6 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon minced garlic
3 cups 1-inch tomato cubes
6 basil leaves, chopped
1 pound spaghetti
4 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons chicken broth
1/2 cup heavy cream, approximately
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
1/3 cup toasted pine nuts

Steps:

  • Trim broccoli and break into florets. Trim off ends of the zucchini. Cut into quarters, then cut into 1-inch or slightly longer lengths (about 1 1/2 cups). Cut each asparagus into 2-inch pieces. Trim beans and cut into 1-inch pieces.
  • Cook each of the green vegetables separately in boiling salted water to cover until crisp but tender. Drain well, then run under cold water to chill, and drain again thoroughly. Combine the cooked vegetables in a bowl.
  • Cook the peas and pods; about 1 minute if fresh; 30 seconds if frozen. Drain, chill with cold water and drain again. Combine with the vegetables.
  • In a skillet over medium-high heat, heat the peanut oil and add the mushrooms. Season to taste. Cook about 2 minutes, shaking the skillet and stirring. Add the mushrooms, chili and parsley to the vegetables.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a saucepan and add half the garlic, tomatoes, salt and pepper. Cook about 4 minutes. Add the basil.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet and add the remaining garlic and the vegetable mixture. Cook, stirring gently, until heated through.
  • Cook the spaghetti in boiling salted water until almost (but not quite) tender, retaining a slight resilience in the center. Drain well.
  • In a pot large enough to hold the spaghetti and vegetables, add the butter and melt over medium-low heat. Then add the chicken broth and half a cup each of cream and cheese, stirring constantly. Cook gently until smooth. Add the spaghetti and toss quickly to blend. Add half the vegetables and pour in the liquid from the tomatoes, tossing over very low heat.
  • Add the remaining vegetables. If the sauce seems dry, add 3 to 4 tablespoons more cream. Add the pine nuts and give the mixture a final tossing.
  • Serve equal portions of the spaghetti mixture in hot soup or spaghetti bowls. Spoon equal amounts of the tomatoes over each serving. Serve immediately.

PASTA, GREEN BEANS AND POTATOES WITH PESTO



Pasta, Green Beans and Potatoes With Pesto image

The most elegant pasta dish that Italian cooks have ever invented is astonishingly simple to make. Here, the magical green sauce is tossed with trenette (or any long pasta you can twirl around a fork), tender slices of potato and barely blanched green beans.

Provided by Nancy Harmon Jenkins

Categories     dinner, weeknight, pastas, main course, side dish

Time 30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups packed tender young basil leaves
1/4 cup pine nuts
1 teaspoon salt
2 plump garlic cloves, peeled and crushed with flat blade of a knife
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil, or more to taste
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, or more to taste
Salt to taste
1/2 pound small potatoes, peeled and sliced about 1/4-inch thick
1/4 pound tender young green beans, cut into 1-inch lengths
1 pound trenette, or other long, thin pasta

Steps:

  • Make pesto: In the bowl of food processor, add basil, pine nuts, salt and garlic. Pulse until mixture is coarse and grainy. With the motor running, add oil in slow, steady stream. Add cheese; process just enough to mix well. If sauce is too dry, add a little more oil. Taste; add more cheese or salt, if desired.
  • Bring 6 quarts water to rolling boil. Add at least 2 tablespoons salt and the potato slices. Cook for about 5 minutes, or until potatoes have started to soften but are not cooked through. Add green beans, and continue boiling another 5 minutes.
  • Add pasta, and stir. Start testing pasta at 5 minutes. When it is done, and when potatoes and beans are tender, drain and turn pasta and vegetables immediately into preheated bowl. Add pesto, and mix thoroughly. Serve immediately.
