I saw this on a cooking show today, and made it for dinner tonight. I made a couple of changes, namely substituting smoked trout for the smoked salmon, dill for the chervil and I used regular veg stock and added freshly cracked black pepper to the finished dish. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons butter (plus extra) (optional) |
1 chopped onion |
1 cup arborio rice |
3 cups reduced-sodium vegetable stock (total of 750ml) |
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese |
1/2 cup fresh mixed herbs, such as basil, parsley & chervil |
200 g smoked salmon |
Directions:
1. Melt butter in casserole dish in microwave set on high for 2 minutes. 2. Stir in chopped onion and microwave on high for 2 minutes. 3. Add rice, microwave on high for 4 minutes. 4. Add stock and cook on high for 9 minutes. 5. Remove dish from microwave, stir rice mixture, then cook on high for an additional 9 minutes. 6. Remove dish from microwave and let sit for a couple of minutes, then stir in a dollop of butter (optional), parmesan and chopped herbs. Serve risotto topped with slices of smoked salmon. |
