Quick Julienned Vegetable Saute Recipe 465

QUICK JULIENNED VEGETABLE SAUTE RECIPE - (4.6/5)

Steps:

• Using my vegetable peeler, I "julienned" each vegetable. In a skillet, heat olive oil on medium heat. Add garlic and vegetables and cook for less than a minute until just tender, but not overcooked.

HERBED JULIENNED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Reserve 4 sprigs of tarragon for garnish. Remove the leaves from the remaining tarragon sprigs and chop them.
• With a chefs knife, cut the carrots, celery stalks and turnip into julienned strips about ¼"x ¼" by about 3" long.
• Make a parchment paper lid to fit the saute pan: Fold a square of parchment in half, triangularly, then in half again. Fold it over once or twice more to form a slender cone.
• Holding the paper cone over the pan with the tip hovering over the center, use the edge of the pan as a gauge to cut the cone. (Alternately trace a circle around an inverted saucepan onto the paper and cut the just inside the circle so that it will fit inside the saucepan).
• Unfold the paper round.
• Warm the butter until soft and brush a little over the paper round. Heat the remaining butter in the saute pan. Add the vegetable julienne and the herbs. Salt and pepper to taste and stir.
• Set the paper round on the vegetables, butter-side down. Cover the pan with the lid and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are crisp-tender, 15-20 minutes, taking care not to burn them.
• Serve immediately.
