Rosemary Orange And Onion Pasta Recipes

PASTA WITH ROSEMARY AND ONION-ORANGE MARMALADE

Steps:

• In a saucepan, heat the oil. Add the pancetta and cook over moderate heat until browned and most of the fat has been rendered, 4 minutes. Add the onion and rosemary, cover and cook over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until the onion is tender and golden, 10 minutes. Stir in the marmalade; season with salt and pepper. Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente. Drain the pasta, reserving 1/3 cup of the cooking water. Return the pasta to the saucepan. Add the onion-orange mixture and the reserved cooking water; toss well. Season with salt and pepper and transfer to plates. Sprinkle with the cheese and serve right away.

BEEF STEW WITH ORANGE AND ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a heavy casserole and add the pancetta or bacon. Dry the cubes of beef with paper towels and brown them a few pieces at a time. Remove and add the onion. Brown lightly. Stir in the flour and cook for two to three minutes without browning.
• Return the beef with its juices to the casserole. Add the garlic, stock, wine, tomato paste, herb bouquet, rosemary branches (or teaspoon dried rosemary), orange peel, salt and pepper. Bring to boil, lower the heat and simmer gently for an hour and one-half, stirring occasionally, with the lid on slightly askew.
• Remove herb bouquet and rosemary sprigs. Correct the seasoning and serve.

GARLIC AND ROSEMARY PASTA

Steps:

• Cook the pasta as per packet instructions (if dried usually 8 - 11 minutes).
• While the pasta is cooking, get a large frying pan, heat the olive oil, add the garlic and finely chopped rosemary, season with a little salt and pepper and fry for 2-3 minutes over a medium heat until the garlic is slightly golden in colour.
• Drain the pasta and add it to the frying pan, mix the pasta, garlic and rosemary well until all pasta is well coated.
• Add a tablespoon of butter, quick stir again, serve immediately.

ORANGE, ONION AND ROSEMARY SALAD

Steps:

• Peel the oranges, and section them as you would a grapefruit, or slice them thinly. Peel the onion, and slice thinly. Toss both with the rosemary, a small amount of salt and pepper, and the olive oil.
• Serve immediately, garnished with rosemary sprigs if you have them, or refrigerate for up to 2 hours. Bring to room temperature before serving.
