Talk about health foods, and this recipe comes up. I saw it in the news when I was looking at the recent volcanic eruption and how thousands of air passengers got stranded, and this is part of the news.
Presto! I have another recipe to add in my cooking site.
Here goes!
Artichoke Risotto, a.k.a. Risotto Ai Carciofi
(Serves six)
Ingredients:
- 4 cups organic vegetable stock
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- ¼ cup minced shallots
- ½ cup finely diced yellow onion
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 1 cup Arborio rice
- ½ artichoke heart, quartered
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh sage
- ½ cup white wine
- ½ teaspoon salt
- pinch of ground black pepper
- ¼ cup shredded parmigiano-reggiano cheese
- On low heat, warm the vegetable stock and set it aside.
- Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat and add the garlic, shallots, and onion. Cook until the shallots and onions are translucent. It should take about three minutes.
- Then add the rice and stir well before cooking for a minute.
- Add the sage, white wine, artichoke heart, salt, and pepper, and cook until the wine is absorbed by the rice.
- Add the stock one cup at a time while stirring.
- Stir until the rice absorbs all of the liquid, which should take 15 minutes per cup of stock. As the stock is added, the rice should begin to look creamier.
- Remove the rice from the heat when all of the stock has been absorbed. Add in cheese and serve.
Most importantly, enjoy!
