Winter Pasta for Vata
4 servings
A julienne of carrots and fennel tossed with Ginger Gremolata. Whole
wheat pasta offers a nice color contrast to the fennel. If fennel
is not in season, substitute slivered celery or even julienned green
beans. (Don't worry about the fennel tops -- I just like to utilize
them if the fennel bulb has been gracious enough to provide them).
You can toast fennel seeds in the toaster oven, which works perfectly
when you watch them like a hawk. They go from lightly toasted to
burned in seconds.
Step One
1 pound (500 g) fresh linguine, fettuccine, or spaghetti or 1/2
pound (230 g) dried
Step Two
1/3 cup (80 ml) oil
Pinch of hing (optional)
2 cups (180 g) carrots, cut into 2-inch (5 cm) lengths and finely
julienned
3 cups (330 g) fennel stalks, cut into 2-inch (5 cm) lengths and
slivered lengthwise
Up to 4 tablespoons chopped fennel tops (if on the fennel bulb)
Liquid seasoning or salt
Step Three
1 tablespoon fennel seeds
2 tablespoons lemon juice
Ginger Gremolata (recipe follows)
1/2 cup (50 g) slivered pecans, lightly toasted
Black pepper
Cook the pasta until al dente. Drain.
Heat the oil in a large skillet over low heat. Add the hing and
saute for 30 seconds, until fragrant. Add the carrots, fennel, and
fennel tops and sprinkle with liquid seasoning or salt. Stir, cover,
and cook until tender, stirring occasionally.
Toss the vegetables, fennel seeds, lemon juice, Ginger Gremolata,
pecans, and a sprinkling of black pepper with the pasta. Adjust
the seasoning.
Ginger Gremolata
Gremolata is a flavorful garnish for soups and stews as well as
for pasta. Everything should be very finely minced -- a whirl in
a food processor is a good final step.
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest
1 cup (240 ml) minced flat-leaf parsley
Mix all the ingredients together
