Creamy Risotto With Vegetables Recipes

RISOTTO WITH VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Using a heavy sauce pot, heat the olive oil and saute the onions until translucent, approximately 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt.
• Add the rice and toast for another minute. Add the white wine and vegetable stock and stir until a creamy consistency. Allow rice to cook for 15 minutes until rich and creamy.
• Once rice is cooked, add the zucchini, peppers, and tomato and mix well.
• To serve, place on large platter and garnish with basil leaves and cherry tomatoes.

MUSHROOM RISOTTO

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute the onion and garlic in the olive oil until onion is tender and garlic is lightly browned. Remove garlic, and stir in the parsley, celery, salt, and pepper. Cook until celery is tender, then add the mushrooms. Reduce heat to low, and continue cooking until the mushrooms are soft.
• Pour the milk and cream into the skillet, and stir in the rice. Heat to a simmer. Stir the vegetable stock into the rice one cup at a time, until it is absorbed.
• When the rice has finished cooking, stir in the butter and Parmesan cheese, and remove from heat. Serve hot.

CREAMY VEGGIE RISOTTO

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large shallow pan. Tip in the onion, parsnip and carrots, cover and gently fry for 8 mins until the onion is very soft.
• Stir in the rice and bay leaf, then gently fry for another 2-3 mins until the rice starts to turn see-through around the edges. Add 300ml of the stock and simmer over a gentle heat, stirring until it has all been absorbed. Carry on adding the hot stock, a ladleful at a time, letting it be absorbed before adding more. Continue until the rice is just cooked and all the stock has been used, adding a little more water or stock if needed. This will take 18-20 mins.
• Remove the bay leaf from the cooked risotto and stir in the peas. Heat through for a few mins, then add most of the Parmesan and season to taste. Sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan and serve.
