To get started with this recipe, we have to first prepare a few ingredients. You can cook vegetable risotto using 11 ingredients and 6 steps. Here is how you cook it.
The ingredients needed to make Vegetable risotto:
- Get 300 g rice (arborio is best)
- Make ready 3 medium or 4 small shallots
- Take 3 cloves garlic
- Prepare 6-8 brussels sprouts
- Make ready 2 medium carrots
- Take 1 medium zucchini
- Make ready 1/2 cup shredded parmesan
- Make ready to taste Salt, pepper, red paprika and basil
- Get 1 splash oil
- Prepare 1 1/2 tbsp butter
- Take Half a glass dry white wine (and 1 for the cook 😉)
In a large saucepan cook mushrooms, onion, garlic in hot oil (or water) until onion is tender. In a large saucepan, heat stock and keep warm. Cook and stir until all of the liquid is absorbed. Italian risotto made with summer vegetables such as corn, bell peppers, green onions and basil.
Instructions to make Vegetable risotto:
- Wash and peel the veggies, but don’t throw away the peels just yet! I always save them to make fresh stock (if there’s no rotting or worms of course). Put them in a small pot, add a pinch of salt and a splash of vegetable oil (to extract the color and flavor better) and cover them with water. Simmer for about 20 min.
- Chop peeled veggies.
- Sauté the shallots on butter until golden. Add garlic, stir until the typical garlicky smell. Add rice, stir until translucent. Take a ladle of stock you just prepared and add it to the rice. The most important thing is to stir as much as possible. When the mixture seems a bit dry, add another ladle of stock.
- After the second addition of stock, add the chopped veggies. Mix thoroughly. Alternate between adding stock and stirring. You’ll use about 1-1.2 L of stock, depending of how well cooked rice you like.
- With the last addition of stock, add 1/2 tbsp butter to make risotto creamier.
- Lastly, add white wine and when it evaporates, add parmesan. Stir again and serve hot. Now pour yourself a glass, you did well.
