Artichoke Risotto Recipes

Steps:

• Trim the artichokes, rubbing them with a cut lemon as you go, and slice 1/4 to 1/3 inch thick. Place them in a bowl of water acidulated with the juice of 1/2 lemon. Put your stock or broth into a saucepan, and bring it to a simmer over low heat with a ladle nearby or in the pot. Make sure that the broth is well seasoned.
• Drain the artichoke hearts and pat dry. Heat the oil in a wide, heavy skillet or saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and 1/2 teaspoon salt, and cook gently until tender, three to five minutes. Add the artichoke hearts and the garlic, and stir for two to three minutes until the artichoke hearts are beginning to color.
• Add the rice and thyme, and stir until the grains become separate and begin to crackle. Add the wine, and stir over medium heat until it has been absorbed by the rice. Begin adding the simmering stock, two ladlefuls (about 1/2 cup) at a time. The stock should just cover the rice and should be bubbling, not too slowly nor too quickly. Cook, stirring often, until the liquid is almost absorbed. Add another ladleful or two of the stock, and continue to cook in this fashion - adding more stock when the rice is almost dry, then stirring - for 20 to 25 minutes. When the rice is tender all the way through but still chewy, it is done. Add pepper, taste and adjust seasoning.
• Mince the parsley and lemon zest together, and add to the risotto along with another ladleful or two of stock. Remove from the heat, and add a teaspoon or two of lemon juice. Stir in the cheese, if using. Serve right away in wide soup bowls or on plates, spreading the risotto in a thin layer rather than lumping in a mound.

Steps:

• Using a large saucepan over medium heat, heat oil and margarine. Saute 1/2 of the onion until tender. Add rice and cook until lightly browned, stirring to prevent rice from burning.
• When rice is browned, pour in soy milk and apple juice. When the liquid is absorbed gradually pour in vegetable stock, about 1/2 cup at a time until this is absorbed, reserving about 1/4 cup of stock. Cover saucepan and cook for approximately 20 minutes or until rice is tender.
• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the marinated artichoke heart liquid that was reserved and lightly brown the remaining onion and tofu. Stir in garlic.
• Remove rice from heat, add the set aside 1/4 cup of vegetable stock, tofu mixture, artichoke hearts, corn, and cayenne pepper. Mix together well and heat thru. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Bring the chicken stock to a boil over high heat.
• Clean the artichokes, leaving the tender inner leaves attached to the hearts, and halved. Rub with 1/2 lemon.
• Cook artichokes until tender, about 10 minutes.
• In a saute pan over low heat, saute onions and garlic together in olive oil. Add rice and toast to harden the outer starch. Add wine and slowly add chicken stock, only adding as much as will evaporate in 1 minute, until rice is cooked and creamy.
• When the rice is cooked, remove from heat and allow it to set for a few minutes to absorb any remaining liquid. Just before serving, mix in the artichokes, cheese, chopped parsley, thyme leaves, and salt and pepper, to taste.

Steps:

• Pull away the dark green outer leaves of the artichoke until you reach the yellow inner leaves. Cut one to two inches off the top of the artichoke, eliminating all prickly parts. Cut the base in half vertically. With a sharp knife, cut away the fuzzy choke and any remaining little leaves. Cut each half into thin slices and place in small bowl of water into which you have squeezed the lemon half.
• Bring the chicken stock to a simmer on top of the stove. Meanwhile, heat the butter and oil in a heavy skillet and cook the onion and garlic until the onion is soft. Drain the artichoke slices, pat them dry and saute for two to three minutes.
• Add the rice and saute, stirring for one to two minutes, making sure the grains are coated with the butter and oil. Add the wine and stir it until it is absorbed. Add the hot broth one-half cup at a time, stirring frequently. Do not add the next cup before the previous one is completely absorbed.
• When the rice is almost done (it should be creamy but al dente) add the ham and Parmesan cheese. Season to taste and Serve at once.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan dilute the broth with 2 cups water, bring it to a boil, and keep the broth at a bare simmer. In a heavy saucepan cook the bell pepper and the artichoke hearts in 1 tablespoon of the oil over moderate heat, stirring, for 2 minutes and transfer them with a slotted spoon to a bowl. In the heavy pan cook the onion in the remaining 2 tablespoons oil over moderately low heat, stirring, until it is softened, stir in the prosciutto and the rice with a wooden spatula, and cook the mixture over moderate heat, stirring, for 1 minute, or until the rice is coated well with the oil. Add the wine and cook the mixture over moderately high heat, stirring, for 1 to 3 minutes, or until the wine is absorbed, add 1/2 cup of the simmering broth, and cook the mixture at a vigorous simmer, stirring, for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed. Continue adding the broth, about 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly and letting each portion be absorbed before adding the next, until only 1/2 cup of the broth remains. Stir in the vegetables and 1/3 cup of the remaining broth and simmer the mixture, stirring, for 1 minute, or until the liquid is absorbed. (The risotto should be creamy, but the rice grains should be al dente.) If necessary add the remaining broth and cook the risotto in the same manner until the rice is al dente. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the Parmesan, the parsley, and the white pepper.

Steps:

• Bring broth to simmer in saucepan.Remove from heat. Cover; keep warm.
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter with oil in heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add onion; sauté until soft and golden, about 5 minutes. Pat artichokes dry and add to pot. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover and cook until artichokes begin to brown, stirring often, about 8 minutes. Add rice; stir 2 minutes. Add wine; stir until absorbed, about 1 minute. Add 1 1/2 cups warm broth; cook until absorbed, stirring often, about 5 minutes. Add more broth, 1/2 cupful at a time, allowing each addition to be absorbed before adding next and stirring often, until rice is just tender and mixture is creamy, about 20 minutes longer. Remove from heat; stir in cheese and 1 tablespoon butter. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to bowl and serve.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large frying pan or wok. Cook the onions gently for 6-7 mins until softened and browning. Add the peppers and rosemary and cook for a further 5 mins. Add rice and stir well.
• Pour in the wine and of the stock. Bring to the boil then reduce the heat and simmer gently, stirring occasionally until almost all the liquid is absorbed.
• Stir in another of the stock and simmer again, until it's all absorbed. Add the final with the artichokes and simmer again until rice is tender.
• Season and stir in the Parmesan and ½ the pine nuts. Scatter over the remainder and serve.

Steps:

• Pour the chicken stock into a large pan and keep on the heat at a gentle simmer. Melt half the butter in a large, deep sided, heavy-based frying pan. Add shallots and garlic and cook until soft, but not brown, then tip in the rice and stir for 1 minute until the rice begins to turn translucent.
• Pour in the wine and stir well, then add two handfuls of hot stock and stir until the rice has absorbed almost all of the liquid. Lower the heat and continue to add the stock, a couple of ladles at a time, only adding more when the rice has absorbed each additional of liquid. Continue until all the stock is used up - the risotto should be creamy and the rice tender. Add more stock if needed.
• Meanwhile, throw the sliced chorizo into a small frying pan and fry until some fat has come out of the sausage. Reserve a few pieces for the garnish, then add the artichokes to the pan and stir to warm through. Remove risotto from the heat, then add chorizo and artichokes. Stir in remaining butter, 25g of parmesan and parsley.
• Season well and transfer to a large serving dish. Garnish with the reserved chorizo and parmesan.

Steps:

• Set oven to 400 degrees F.
• Prepare a medium oven-proof saucepan with a tight-fitting lid.
• In a large bowl combine the soup with chicken stock, milk, Parmesan cheese and black pepper until well combined; set aside.
• In the saucepan melt butter over medium heat.
• Add in onion and cook for about 4 minutes or until translucent.
• Add in rice and stir for 2 minutes.
• Add in the soup mixture and drained,chopped artichokes; stir with wooden spoon to combine.
• Cover with a lid and place in the oven.
• Bake for about 15 minutes; stir well then place back in the oven for 10 minutes with the lid on.
• Remove the lid; stir and continue baking for 10 minutes.
• Season with more Parmesan cheese is desired.
• Let stand for about 5 minutes before serving (the mixture will thicken up more upon standing).
