Persillade, the classic French combination of parsley and garlic, is a simple way to enliven steamed fall vegetables, such as parsnips or boiled potatoes.
Ingredients
Preparation
Persillade: In skillet, melt butter over medium heat; fry garlic and shallot until softened, about 3 minutes.
Stir in parsley, salt and pepper; cook until wilted, about 2 minutes.
Meanwhile, in saucepan of boiling salted water, cook carrots until tender-crisp, about 3 minutes; drain and place in bowl. Add persillade and toss to coat.
