Salmon And Pea Risotto Recipes

Steps:

• Bring broth or fish stock to boil.
• Heat oil in a heavy-bottomed pot in which rice will be cooked. Saute onion and garlic in pot until it begins to soften, but not color.
• Add rice and stir to coat well.
• Stir in wine and cook over high heat, stirring, until wine is absorbed.
• Add tomatoes, with the herbs, stirring until liquid evaporates.
• Stir in the heated broth one cup at a time. Stir often, until liquid is absorbed. Repeat, stirring, until just before rice is ready. Rice is cooked when it is creamy but firm in the center.
• With the last liquid addition, stir in the salmon, cooking until salmon is almost ready. Then stir in peas and cook until most of liquid is absorbed and peas are heated through.
• Season with pepper.

Steps:

• Fry the onion in the oil for 5 mins. Add the rice and garlic, then cook for 2 mins, stirring continuously. Pour in a third of the stock and set the timer to 20 mins. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the stock has been absorbed, then add half the rest of the stock and carry on cooking, stirring a bit more frequently, until that has been absorbed.
• Pour in the last of the stock, stir, then simmer until cooked and creamy. Take from the heat and add the chopped salmon, mascarpone, parsley and lemon zest. Grind in some black pepper, but don't add salt as the salmon will be salty enough. Leave for 5 mins to settle, then taste and add a little lemon juice if you like. Serve topped with reserved salmon (roughly torn) and some rocket.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large pan, add the onion and gently sweat for about 10 mins until really soft. Meanwhile, put 100g peas into a food processor with a ladleful of stock and whizz until completely puréed.
• Stir the rice into the onion, increase heat to medium and sizzle the rice for 1 min. Pour in the wine, then bubble and stir until completely absorbed. Continue cooking like this, adding a ladleful of stock at a time, and stirring continuously until the rice is tender and has a good creamy consistency - this will take 20-30 mins.
• Stir in the puréed peas, remaining peas, Parmesan and some seasoning, then turn off the heat and leave to stand for a few mins. Give the risotto a final stir, spoon into shallow bowls and top with some pea shoots and a drizzle of olive oil, if you like.
