(Galettes de Pommes de Terre au Crabe, Crevettes et aux Asperges) Ingredients:
1 cup chicken stock or canned low-salt chicken broth |
1 cup beef stock or canned unsalted beef broth |
1/4 cup chopped shallots (2 medium) |
24 asparagus spears, trimmed to 3 inches |
2 medium russet potatoes, peeled, cut into 1/8-inch-thick rounds |
4 teaspoons plus 2 tablespoons vegetable oil |
5 tablespoons unsalted butter |
1 leek (white and pale green parts only), thinly sliced |
1 cup crabmeat (about 5 ounces) |
2 tablespoons whipping cream |
2 tablespoons minced fresh chives |
12 uncooked large shrimp, peeled, deveined, tails left intact |
Directions:
1. Boil stocks and shallots in saucepan until reduced to 3/4 cup, 20 minutes. Set aside. Cook asparagus in boiling salted water until crisp-tender, 3 minutes. Transfer to bowl of ice water to cool. Drain. 2. Line microwave-safe plate with plastic wrap. Overlap enough potato rounds (about 12) on plastic to form 4-inch round. Microwave on high until almost tender, about 3 minutes. Transfer potato galette to baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 teaspoon oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Repeat with remaining potatoes and 3 teaspoons oil to form total of 4 galettes. (Reduced stock, asparagus, and galettes can be made 6 hours ahead. Cover and chill.) Melt 1 tablespoon butter in medium skillet over medium heat. Add leek. Cover and cook until just tender, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes. Add crab, cream, and chives; simmer to heat through. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat. Cover to keep warm. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add shrimp; sauté until just opaque in center, 3 minutes. Add asparagus; toss to heat through. Season with salt and pepper. 3. Meanwhile, heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in another large skillet over medium-high heat. Add galettes and cook until crisp and brown, 1 1/2 minutes per side; transfer 1 galette to each of 4 plates. Bring reduced stock to simmer. Remove from heat. Add remaining 2 tablespoons butter; whisk just until melted. 4. Top potato galettes with crab mixture. Arrange shrimp atop crab. Surround with asparagus. Spoon stock over. |
