Creamy Corn And Tomato Risotto With Fresh Coriander Recipes

Steps:

• Remove corn kernels from cobs and set aside the kernels. Simmer the cobs in stock for 20 to 30 minutes. Remove from stock and discard. Make sure your stock is well seasoned. Bring back to a simmer over low heat, with a ladle nearby or in the pot.
• Heat olive oil over medium heat in a wide, heavy skillet or a wide, heavy saucepan. Add onion and a generous pinch of salt, and cook gently until tender, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and rice and cook, stirring, until grains of rice are separate and beginning to crackle, a minute or two. Stir in tomatoes, sugar and salt to taste and cook, stirring, until tomatoes have cooked down slightly, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Add wine and stir until it has evaporated and has been absorbed by the rice. Begin adding simmering stock, a couple of ladlefuls (about 1/2 cup) at a time. Stock should just cover the rice and should be bubbling, not too slowly but not too quickly. Cook, stirring often, until it is just about absorbed. Add another ladleful or two of the stock and continue to cook in this fashion, adding more stock and stirring when rice is almost dry. You do not have to stir continually, but stir often and vigorously. After 10 minutes, add corn and continue for another 10 to 15 minutes. When rice is just tender all the way through but still chewy (al dente), in 20 to 25 minutes, it is done. Taste now and adjust seasoning.
• Add another ladleful of stock to rice. Stir in basil (or basil, parsley and chives) and Parmesan and remove from heat. The mix should be creamy (add more stock if it sn't). Serve right away in wide soup bowls or on plates, spreading the risotto in a thin layer rather than a mound.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, heat the water, milk and broth; keep warm. , In a large skillet, saute onion in butter until tender. , Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Add rice; cook and stir for 2-3 minutes. Stir in 1 cup hot water mixture. Cook and stir until all liquid is absorbed. , Add remaining water mixture, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly. Allow the liquid to absorb between additions. Cook until risotto is creamy and rice is almost tender. (Cooking time is about 20 minutes.) Stir in the remaining ingredients; heat through.

Steps:

• Cook corn in large pot with boiling salted water until just tender, about 5 minutes. Drain; cool to room temperature. Cut corn kernels from cobs. Transfer corn to large bowl. Add remaining ingredients; toss to blend. Season salad to taste with salt and pepper. (Can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature, tossing occasionally.)

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large pot or wide, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add the scallions, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Add the rice and cook, stirring occasionally, until toasted, about 2 minutes. Add the wine and cook, stirring occasionally, until evaporated, about 5 minutes.
• Add the chicken broth to the rice and cook, stirring frequently, until the liquid has been absorbed and the rice is creamy and al dente in texture, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring the heavy cream to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Lower the heat to maintain a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced by one quarter, about 5 minutes (take care not to let the cream boil over and scald). Stir in the Parmesan until melted. Remove from the heat and gently fold in the chives and parsley.
• When the rice is al dente, add the corn kernels and stir just until cooked and heated through, about 2 minutes. Fold in the Parmesan cream. Serve in bowls and garnish with more chives and parsley.

Steps:

• Drain tomatoes into a sieve; allow the liquids to drain into a saucepan. Add the vegetable broth, and heat to a simmer. Keep the pan over low heat.
• Melt 2 tbsp butter in a large casserole or skillet over medium high heat. Add the onion and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until soft and translucent. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute more, until fragrant. Add the rice, stirring constantly for 1 minute. Add the white wine and stir until completely absorbed.
• Begin to add the heated broth 1/2 cup at a time, stirring frequently. Wait until each addition is almost completely absorbed before adding the next. When the rice has cooked for 15 minutes and most of the liquid has been incorporated, add the corn kernels, tomatoes and shrimp, along with the last of the broth. Cook, stirring frequently, until the rice is tender but al dente, and the shrimp is pink and cooked through. This should take 18 to 20 minutes of cooking in total.
• Stir in the Parmesan cheese, most of the basil, and the salt and pepper. Spoon the risotto immediately onto plates, top with the remaining basil strands, and serve.

Steps:

• Heat 1/3 cup of the broth to boiling in 10-inch skillet. Cook garlic in broth 1 minute, stirring occasionally.
• Stir in rice and corn. Cook 1 minute, stirring occasionally.
• Stir in remaining broth. Heat to boiling; reduce heat to medium. Continue cooking uncovered 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until rice is tender and creamy; remove from heat. Stir in cheeses and parsley.

Steps:

• Reserve 1/2 the quantity of kernels (about 1 and 1/2 cups), and puree the rest in a blender with some of the stock/broth.
• Strain through a sieve and add this strained liquid to the rest of the stock in a saucepan.
• Taste for seasoning (salt).
• Heat to boiling point when ready to prepare risotto (and have the hot water available, just in case).
• In another pot (the one you will use for risotto), saute the onion and garlic in 2 tbs butter, until onion is translucent.
• Add the rice, and coat well, cooking another minute or so.
• Add reserved corn kernels.
• Add the hot broth to the rice/corn mix, one or two ladles at a time, stirring very frequently.
• Add more broth as it is absorbed by the rice.
• Continue this way for about 20 minutes, or until rice is cooked but"al dente", in a creamy base of"sauce".
• *ORsee optional method of cooking, below.
• If rice isn't done after using all the corn stock, continue to cook using hot water, 1/2 cup at a time.
• When rice is done to taste, add the remaining butter, cheese or cream, and taste again for salt and pepper.
• Serve at once.
• *Optional"cheater's"method of cooking risotto: Add 1/2 the hot stock to rice (and hold back the kernels); stir only occasionally.
• When stock is absorbed, add kernels and rest of stock, stirring enough to avoid rice sticking to bottom.
• Continue as above.
• For vegetarians use vegetable stock.

Steps:

• Step 1 Process 4 1/2 cups water and 1 cup corn in a blender until smooth, about 1 minute. Pour through a fine wire-mesh strainer into a large measuring cup; discard solids. Add water, if necessary, to equal 4 1/2 cups. Transfer to a saucepan; bring to a simmer over medium-high. Reduce heat to low. Step 2 Heat olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high. Add mushrooms, onion, and remaining 1 cup corn. Cook, stirring often, until onions are translucent, 4 to 5 minutes. Add rice, garlic, and 2 teaspoons thyme. Cook, stirring constantly, until rice is toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Add wine; bring to a boil, and cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid is almost evaporated. Step 3 Stir in 2 cups corn broth; reduce heat to medium-low, and cook, stirring often, until broth is almost absorbed, about 10 minutes. Add 1 cup corn broth, and cook, stirring often, 5 minutes. Repeat with 1 cup corn broth. Remove from heat. Stir in 1/4 cup cheese, butter, salt, and remaining 1/2 cup corn broth. Divide among 4 bowls; top evenly with pine nuts, remaining 2 teaspoons thyme, and remaining 1/4 cup cheese.

Steps:

• In a blender blend the tomato juice, the jalapeño pepper, and the sugar until the mixture is smooth. Strain the mixture through a sieve set over a bowl, discard the solids, and stir in the orange juice, the coriander, and enough water to thin the soup to the desired consistency. Season the soup with salt and pepper, chill it, covered, for 1 hour, or until it is cold, and serve it with the sour cream.

Steps:

• Combine tomatoes, basil, lime juice and salt. Bring stock to simmer. Puree 1 cup of corn in food processor. Heat butter in large saucepan or skillet over medium heat until foam subsides, then add scallions, stirring until they are translucent, about 5 minutes. Add rice, and stir to coat it with butter before adding wine. Cook, stirring until absorbed.
• Add 1 cup of chicken stock, and cook, stirring over medium-low heat until stock is absorbed. Add remaining stock, 1/2 cup at a time, reserving at least 1/2 cup for Step 3. Cook and stir until liquid is almost completely absorbed before adding more. Continue until rice is almost tender, about 15 minutes.
• Stir in pureed corn with another 1/2 cup of stock. Continue to cook, stirring and adding stock as needed until rice is al dente, 5 to 10 minutes more. Stir in corn kernels and fresh tomato mixture. Season with salt and pepper, spoon into warmed soup bowls, and sprinkle each serving with grated Parmesan cheese.
