Stir-Fried Asparagus - Serves 1
I've had a recent asparagus obsession. Asparagus carbonara, grilled asparagus in couscous, asparagus with eggs for lunch, asparagus with fish! No need for hollandaise sauce, I enjoy it quickly stir-fried.
* oil
* ¼ of onion, sliced thinly
* ½ a bunch of aspargus, cut into 1" sections (sliced in half lengthwise if the stalk is very fat)
* salt, to taste
* Italian seasoning
* red dried chili flakes
Heat oil in a pan.
Add onion and cook until slightly softened.
Add asparagus.
Season with salt and Italian seasoning.
Add dried chili flakes to taste.
I often pan fry fish simply with a bit of flour. My sister mentioned that cornmeal gives a great crust and she was right. Nice, crispy and a beautiful golden colour, without too much oil!
* 2 small sole fillets
* salt, to taste
* black pepper, to taste
* black pepper, to taste
* ½ cup flour
* cornmeal
* Parmesan cheese (optional)
* oil
Pat your sole fillets dry and season with salt and pepper.
Place the egg and flour in separate deep dishes.
In a third dish, add a bit of cornmeal, and mix with some Parmesan.
Dredge your fillets in the flour first, then the egg and finally the cornmeal mixture.
Heat oil in a pan.
Add your fillets and cook on both sides.
Tada!

these recipe looks delish! we love that crispy crust!
How long did you pan fry the fillets for? They look so good!
It really doesn't take long because the fillets were very thing. Probably 1-2 minutes per side.
Actually I don't even use egg wash! The moistness of the fish just makes the cornmeal stick. I like to make it 'mexican' and serve it with a spicy salsa and sour cream...
