Subj : Basic Risotto To : All From : Ben Collver Date : Sat Oct 05 2024 10:28:39 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Basic Risotto Categories: Rice Yield: 1 Batch 1 tb Butter (optional) 1 tb Olive oil 1 lg White onion 3 cl Garlic (optional) 175 g Short grain rice (any short -grain rice will do) 100 ml White wine / Martini 600 ml Stock 50 g Hard cheese; up to 100 g, -grated Seasoning The main stay of the 'vegetarian option' in restaurants, usually the ones that haven't a clue what to serve if you don't want meat. This recipe uses a pressure cooker for frying as well as making the risotto. This avoids the need to stand over it adding stock a bit at a time. Fry the Onion & Garlic (if used) in the oil (or oil & butter) for 3 minutes or until soft. Add the rice to coat in the remaining oil & stir well for 1 minute. Add the wine & continue to stir until it has reduced by half. Then add the stock & stir well. Season to taste. Seal the pressure cooker & bring to high pressure. Maintain high pressure for 8 minutes then allow to de-pressurize naturally. Stir well as it will look very wet, then stir in the cheese. (You can also add more butter). Recipe FROM: MMMMM .
