Have you ever tried fish pasta? Well, it might be rare in your neighborhood restaurants, but it's very common in Italian restaurants. Fish pasta like the calabrian fish ragu pasta is equally popular just like the traditional ones. It is a quick meal that you can cook for your family in busy weekdays. The name 'calabrian' comes from the seasoning that is inspired by flavors of Calabria, like chillies, salami paste, and others. These seasonings give a bold flavor to this pasta.


Preparing the fish

It is convenient to buy fish fillets from the supermarket to save yourself from the hassle of cutting the whole fish. However, making the pasta with freshly cut fish is a different story. If you are opting for the second option then you first need to clean the fish properly. Take off the scales and cut the fins. Then remove the head. Make an incision from the belly. They cut the fish in half to get the fillets. Remove the skin using your knife. Get rid of the bones with the help of tweezers. Don't throw away the scraps as you need them to make the fish stock.

Ingredients

Calabrian fish

  • White fish fillets – 250 gm, skinless and boneless (you can choose cod, snapper, or barramundi fish for this dish)
  • Fennel seeds – 1 teaspoon
  • Smoked paprika – 1 tablespoon
  • Black peppercorn – ¾ teaspoon
  • Chilli flakes – ½ teaspoon
  • Nutmeg power – ½ teaspoon
  • Fine sugar – ½ teaspoon
  • Salt – to taste
  • Tomato paste – 2 tablespoon
  • Extra virgin olive oil – 3 tablespoons

Pasta

  • Pasta (spaghetti, fettuccine, or linguine pasta) – 250 gm
  • Salt – 1 teaspoon
  • Extra virgin olive oil – 1.5 tablespoon
  • Garlic cloves – 3
  • Tomato puree – ¾ cup

Garnish

  • Parsley – 1 tablespoon, finely chopped
  • Parmesan cheese – ¼ cup, grated

Pangrattato

  • Stale bread (like ciabatta or sourdough with crusts removed and bread chopped into irregular pieces) – 1 cup
  • Salt – a pinch
  • Extra virgin olive oil 2 teaspoon

Cooking instructions

  1. Place the pangrattato in the oven. Toss olive oil and salt, then bake at 180°C for 10 minutes or until they become crispy.
  2. Place a deep pot on medium flame. Toast fennel seeds and black peppercorn for a few minutes without any oil. When you start getting fragrant and the spices become slightly brown, remove them from the pan and transfer to a mortal. Crush and make powder using a pestle while still hot.
  3. Mix this spice with the Calabrian fish ingredients using a spatula and set them aside.
  4. Place the fish scrapes, head, and bones in a pan. Add fennel seeds, peppercorns, bay leaf, and water. Bring to a boil and then simmer for 30 minutes. Your fish stock will be prepared.
  5. In another stove place a frying pan and warm the oil. Add chopped onions and cook for 10 minutes. Add garlic, tomatoes, and some fish stock. Cook for a few minutes.
  6. Add the fish fillets and cook thoroughly. Turn the fish.
  7. Take another pan and pour the rest of the fish stock. Put the pasta now and add more hot water if needed according to the pasta packet instructions. Drain the water and keep it aside.
  8. When it's done, add parsley and parmesan; the pasta is complete!

Tips

  • The following fishes are ideal for this dish: cod, snapper, john or silver dory, varramundi, bream, tilapia, flathead, perch, bass, hake.
  • Avoid using fish like swordfish, bonito, tuna, marlin, or kingfish and they tend to dry out quickly when cooked. You must also avoid thin-filleted fish like turbot, sole, or plaice as they will blend completely into the dish. You shouldn't use mackerel or sardines as well because the taste of these fishes won't match your recipe.
  • Instead of using ready-made powdered spices, grind whole spices.
  • You can store the leftovers for up to 3 days inside the refrigerator.
  • You can add vegetables like onion, garlic, parsley, and carrot in a food processor s as needed. Saute the vegetable mixture in oil and put the tomato paste as well. Simmer for some time. Add blended tomatoes, fish sauce, and sugar.

If you enjoy fish dishes then you will love Calabrian fish ragu pasta. It may be a bit difficult to remember the steps when you cook for the first time. But you will get hold of it soon. It is not a very common item to serve the guests. So, you can be the one to serve it as a unique dish when you host any occasion at home.

If you are looking for a vegan dish then you might like this healthy dish. Though it's meant for vegan people, anyone can have it. The tricky question is that vegans don't eat any animal product but the name of the dish indicates that there is chicken. So, what's the catch?

These are tofu nuggets which are cooked in the air frying. Thus, they are a healthier choice than the chicken nuggets that you find in stores. These nuggets are crispy, juicy, and delicious. The main ingredients include tofu, dill pickle juice, and soy sauce. Tofu is used here as it gives the firm structure that chicken nuggets have. You must wash the tofu and press it for 20 minutes to remove water. Tofu is soft and can retain water easily. So, removing water this way ensures that the dish's flavor is not affected. The pickle adds tanginess and sweetness to the diet.


Ingredients

● Extra firm tofu – 1 block
● Dill pickle juice – 2 tablespoons
● Tamary soy sauce – 2 tablespoons
● White sugar – ½ teaspoon
● Extra virgin olive oil – 2 tablespoons
● White flour – 1 tablespoon
● Garlic powder – 1 teaspoon
● Black pepper – ½ teaspoon
● Smoked paprika- ½ teaspoon
● Salt – to taste
● Oil spray

Process of making vegan chicken nuggets

1. Get rid of the water from the tofu by pressing hard. Use a paper towel to clean them.
2. Using hand break the tofu into nugget-like pieces.
3. Combine dill pickle juice, oil, sugar, and soy sauce. Toss the tofu into this paste. Marinade in the fridge for an hour.
4. Put garlic powder, salt, pepper, flour, and smoked paprika in the air fryer, and then add tofu.
5. Air fry for 20 minutes. Make sure you flip the tofu halfway through.
6. You can spray some olive oil to ensure they don't stick to the surface.
7. After air frying if your nugget is not yet crispy then air fry again for some time.
8. If you don't have an air fryer you can bake the tofu in the oven for 30 to 35 minutes at 350 degrees C.


Variations

● You can make a dish with oyster mushrooms or cauliflower instead of tofu.
● You can use flour of your choice to coat the nuggets. For example, instead of wheat flour, you can use chickpea flour.
● Instead of dill pickle juice, you can use white vinegar or apple cider vinegar.

Preparing dill pickle juice

You can easily prepare this pickle using cucumber. Slice Persian cucumber lengthwise into quarters. Fill up a jar. Add fresh dill, garlic cloves, peppercorns, and mustard seeds. Next, you need to make brine. Mix white vinegar, sugar, water, and salt. Heat brine on the stove till sugar and salt dissolve. Pour it over the jarred cucumbers. Let the jars come to room temperature and then chill in the fridge.

Health benefits of tofu

● Contains essential amino acids
● Good for bones
● Supports heart health
● Helps in weight loss
● Maintains blood sugar level
● Lifts mood
● Reduces the chance of cancer

Tofu nugget is an excellent alternative to chicken nuggets. You will get a similar taste. If you don't have an air fryer you can fry. But baking would be a healthier option. Enjoy these vegan nuggets with your favorite sauce and pickles!

● If you don't get the pumpkin pie spice in your nearby store, you can mix cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and nutmeg powder to make it at home.
● To get a toasty flavor in your cookie you need to brown the butter. For this, you need to melt the butter in the saucepan and whisk continuously.

● Use egg at room temperature.
● Use fresh baking soda for the cookies to bake perfectly.
● Don't skip using cream of tartar. It helps prevent sugar from crystallizing. That is, it makes the cookies soft and chewy. Cream of tartar is acidic so this is where you get the tangy flavor from.

You can put on your favorite frosting over these cookies. You can also decorate them with colorful toppings. Pumpkin snickerdoodles are sweet and tangy giving you a different feeling. You will feel the punch and get refreshed after having a couple of them.

Do you know that salmon is a superfood full of omega-3 fatty acids? So any meal you prepare with salmon is bound to be healthy. Salmon is a delicious fish as well and very easy to cook. Even if you just fry salmon with some basic seasonings, it will taste amazing. So, imagine how it will taste when you cook with the yummy teriyaki sauce. Here we are going to look at the recipe for sheet pan salmon teriyaki.


Ingredients

For Vegetables

● Broccoli florets – 2 cups, small pieces
● Mini sweet rainbow peppers – 10, seeded and halved
● Sesame oil – 1 tablespoon
● Salt and ground black pepper – to taste

For salmon

● Wild salmon filets – 2
● Sesame oil – 1 teaspoon
● Garlic clove -1, grated
● Ginger – ½ teaspoon, grated
● Soy sauce – 2 tablespoons
● Rice vinegar – 1 teaspoon
● Brown sugar – 1 teaspoon

For garnish

● Toasted sesame seeds – ½ teaspoon
● Scallion – 1, chopped


Cooking method

1. Take out a sheet pan and cover it with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Spray some olive oil.
2. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
3. You will marinate the salmon with teriyaki sauce. To make the sauce, mix garlic, ginger, sesame oil, soy sauce, brown sugar, and vinegar in a bowl.
4. Wash the salmon properly. Take a large ziplock bag and put the salmon in it. Add half of the marinade and shake it by sealing it so that the salmon is well-covered with the marinade.
5. Keep it aside for 10 minutes. If you have the time, marinate for half an hour.
6. Wash and cut the broccoli florets. Put it in a bowl and add salt, pepper, and sesame oil. Place it on the sheet pan you have prepared and roast for 10 minutes in the oven.
7. Take out the veggies from the oven and push them to one side of the pan. Place salmon in the empty area of the sheet pan.
8. Bake for about 10 minutes more so that the salmon is cooked thoroughly.
9. Put a skillet over your stove and pour the leftover marinade. Simmer it till a thick solution forms. Do this in low heat. You will have the teriyaki sauce ready. One way to test whether your teriyaki sauce has the right consistency is to check if it covers the back of a spoon. The teriyaki sauce will give a glossy appearance to your salmon.
10. Take out the salmon and brush over the thick sauce you made over it. Sprinkle sesame seeds and scallions.
11. Serve hot with the vegetables.

Tips

● Don't overcook salmon as it will become dry and it won't taste good. You can use a cooking thermometer and insert it at the center of the fish. If the temperature is between 130 to 135 degrees F then your salmon is ready. Alternatively, you can insert a knife into the thick part of the fish. If the inside looks translucent and pale pink then the salmon is cooked right.
● After taking out the salmon from the oven, let it rest for some time as it will be still cooking internally due to the heat preserved. So, if the center of the fish is undercooked, it will be properly cooked within that time. The texture of the fish will look silky too.
● Buy center-cut salmon

Variations

● You can use bell peppers instead of mini peppers
● You can use a combination of cauliflower and broccoli.
● You can add extra veggies like beans and asparagus.
● To make it spicier add sriracha to the marinade.

Health benefits of salmon

● Promotes heart health
● Supports bone health
● Good for hair and skin
● Improved brain function
● Lowers chance of certain cancers and Alzheimer's disease

It is a perfect dish for any celebration. Your guests will love this new recipe for salmon. The combination of the sweetness of teriyaki sauce and the saltiness of salmon gives a unique flavor and taste to this amazing dish.
