Now cut the shooter into small pieces, 3-4 centimeters long. Don't skimp on the green onions. Initially, it may seem to you that you have done a lot. But after you put everything in a pan, you will understand that this is not so. Pour more sunflower oil, close the lid and turn on a low heat. Let the onion steam a little.

We offer you a selection of interesting recipes in which garlic arrows will be the main or additional ingredient.
Recipes dishes of garlic arrows
Omelet with garlic arrows
There are no proportions in the recipe. An omelette mixture is prepared in the same way as for a regular omelette - eggs are beaten with milk (or water) and salt. Garlic arrows are cut into small pieces (cut off the spouts), fried in vegetable oil until the color changes and softness (the color will turn dark green). You can sprinkle them with pepper if you like. Ready-made garlic arrows are poured with an omelet mixture, a small fire is made and, under the lid, the omelet is brought to readiness. You can make it in different versions, for example, fry arrows with carrots or in tomato.
Braised garlic arrows
In addition to the actual garlic arrows, you will need vegetable oil, tomato juice and salt. Fry the arrows in the same way as in the previous recipe, when they become soft, salt to taste and pour in tomato juice. We make a small fire, simmer under the lid until cooked. To taste, ready-made arrows are very reminiscent of spicy mushrooms.
Fried garlic arrows
Again, the recipe without proportions - everything is very simple in it. My arrows, cut off the seed part, cut into small pieces. Put in hot vegetable oil and immediately add salt. The arrows will highlight the juice in which they will be stewed. When the juice evaporates and the arrows become soft, you can increase the fire and fry the arrows until tender. It takes ten minutes, no more. Can be served as a side dish for meat and fish.
Chicken liver with garlic arrows
Ingredients: 700 grams of chicken liver, 2 onions, 3 sweet bell peppers, a bunch of garlic arrows, salt and pepper to taste, vegetable oil, fresh herbs.
We cut the onion and bell pepper in half rings, garlic arrows - in small pieces. Fry the onion in vegetable oil until it becomes transparent, add the garlic arrows, fry for 3 minutes. Salt, put the bell pepper in the pan. After a couple of minutes, we send the chicken liver to the vegetables (it can be cut into pieces), salt and pepper to taste, fry over medium heat until tender. The readiness of the liver can be determined by the flowing juice - it should be transparent. If desired, at the end of cooking, you can season the dish with sour cream - it will be even tastier. Do not forget that chicken liver is cooked very quickly, and try not to miss the moment when it becomes soft - immediately remove the pan from the heat. If the liver is overexposed, it will turn out dry and tough.
Garlic arrows with pork ribs
Ingredients: 600 grams of ribs, 2 onions, a quarter of a lemon, a bunch of garlic arrows, a pinch of basil, oregano and marjoram, salt to taste, vegetable oil.
Cut the ribs into portions, salt, sprinkle with lemon juice. Fry in vegetable oil until golden brown over low heat. Add spices, onion rings, fry for five minutes.

Ingredients: 3 bunches of garlic arrows, 3 cloves of garlic, 1 tsp. vinegar (6 or 9%), 0.5 tsp. sugar, 1 tbsp. l. seasonings for Korean carrots, salt or soy sauce, vegetable oil, a few bay leaves.
Break the parsley finely. Cut the garlic arrows into pieces, 4-6 cm long. Heat the oil, fry the arrows until soft. Add sugar, parsley, seasoning for Korean carrots, pour in vinegar. Salt or add soy sauce. Be sure to try not to oversalt! Warm up the salad, make a small fire and wait until the sauce thickens. Cool, add the garlic, passed through the garlic. The salad needs to be infused, so make it ahead of time. It is perfect for young potatoes and meat, and as a snack it will also be good.
Don't wait for the garlic cloves to get rough - In this form, they are no longer suitable for food. They will give off aroma, but they will taste fibrous, hard. The best time to harvest is when they are medium in thickness, dark green in color with a thin skin. After cutting, they can lie no more than a week - then the arrows turn yellow and coarsen.
Wherever summer residents work selflessly, there is sure to be a garden bed with green onions. Where without this vegetable in the spring and summer? When arrows ripen on it, many summer residents simply cut them off with ordinary feathers, and then choose and throw them away, considering them unsuitable for consumption. They are really harsh and therefore they are not eaten like ordinary green feathers. But this does not mean that you need to send the gifts of nature to the trash can! Therefore, let's talk about how to cook arrows for the winter according to the recipe (of course, for good).

Rice casserole with onion arrows
For this recipe, we need rice - brown, white - to your taste. Boil as much as you need for a family dinner. Rice should be almost ready. While it is boiling, cut the onion into short tubes, fry in butter with salt and black pepper.
Beat 1-2 eggs with a whisk, a little salt. We take a baking dish, grease it with vegetable oil and transfer the rice into it, evenly leveling it over the surface. Sprinkle the top with sliced onion arrows. Pour all this with beaten eggs and send it to the oven. Enough to bake for 10-15 minutes, since all the components are almost ready, except for the eggs.

How to prepare green arrows for the winter?
The traditional harvesting method is marinating. It turns out quite unusual and tasty, and the freshness of the greens can be preserved almost until the next season.
If you don’t feel like spending time on conservation, onion arrows can simply be frozen, after being crushed and packaged in portioned sachets. In winter, you can simply send the greens to the pan and cook with eggs or in another way.
Prepare pickled onions
When marinated, it turns out an excellent seasoning for meat dishes, chicken, fish and even sandwiches. We will need:
2 kg of green arrows (can be mixed with ordinary feathers);
- 3 cups of vinegar;
- 3 glasses of water;
- 4 pieces of cloves;
- 1 teaspoon of mustard;
- celery;
- 2 tablespoons of salt;
- a few peas of black pepper;
- 1 teaspoon of sugar.
Banks must first be sterilized. Combine all the spices - cloves, mustard, pepper and celery. Rinse the onion stalks well and chop them into tubes up to 5 cm long. A layer of spices is placed at the bottom of each jar, and then onions. Lightly apply the entire mass in the bank. Boil water, add salt and vinegar. Pour the jars with the resulting marinade not to the very top, but up to 1 cm to the edge.
To remove excess air from the jar and evenly distribute the marinade, you need to lightly pierce the entire mass with a skewer or knitting needle, gently moving it. Cover the jars with lids, put on sterilization, and then hermetically cork and put away to cool in a cool place. Pickled onion arrows will be ready a month after seaming. With proper preparation, the workpiece will stand until next spring.
