Tomato And Parmesan Risotto Recipes

Steps:

• Bring broth to a simmer in a medium saucepan; keep warm over medium-low heat until ready to use.
• Meanwhile, heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a large saucepan over medium. Add onion and cook, stirring often, until golden and very soft, 8-10 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until softened, about 1 minute. Add tomato paste and cook, stirring often, until it darkens slightly and begins to stick to pan, about 2 minutes. Add tomatoes and nutmeg, if using, and cook, stirring occasionally, until some of the tomatoes begin to burst, about 2 minutes.
• Stir in rice; season with salt, and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring, until some grains are translucent, about 3 minutes. Ladle in 2 cups broth and simmer, stirring frequently, until completely absorbed, 8-10 minutes. Ladle in another 2 cups broth and continue to cook, stirring frequently, until rice is cooked through and most of the broth is absorbed, 12-15 minutes.
• Add butter, 2 oz. Parmesan, and remaining 1 cup broth and cook, stirring constantly, until risotto is very creamy looking, about 4 minutes. Taste and season with more salt if needed. Divide risotto among bowls. Top with shaved Parmesan and lots of pepper and drizzle with more oil.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180°C.
• Line a baking tray with non-stick baking paper.
• Place the cherry tomato halves in a single layer on lined tray.
• Place garlic on tray.
• Drizzle the tomatoes with 1 tsp of the oil and season with salt and pepper.
• Roast tomatoes and garlic in preheated oven for 30 minutes or until tomatoes shrivel around edges and garlic is soft.
• Remove from oven and squeeze garlic from skin, chop roughly and place in a small bowl.
• Set aside.
• Bring the stock just to the boil in a saucepan.
• Reduce heat and hold the stock at a gentle simmer.
• Heat remaining oil in a medium heavy-based saucepan over medium heat.
• Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 7 minutes or until onion is soft and light golden.
• Add the rice and cook, stirring, for 1 minute or until lightly coated with oil.
• Add a ladleful of the simmering stock to the rice and use a wooden spoon to stir constantly over medium-low heat until the liquid is completely absorbed.
• Continue to add the stock, a small ladleful (about ¼ cup) at a time, stirring constantly, and allow liquid to be absorbed before adding the next ladleful.
• Cook until rice is tender yet firm to the bite and risotto is creamy.
• Start tasting after about 15 minutes- it will probably take about 20-25 minutes to cook and should be moist and creamy when finished.
• Remove the risotto from the heat and add the garlic, basil and parmesan, and stir gently to combine.
• Taste and season with salt (if needed) and pepper.
• Add the tomatoes and fold through the rice gently.
• Spoon into serving bowls and serve immediately sprinkled with a little extra pepper.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large, heavy-based saucepan. Add the onion along with a pinch of salt, and fry for 10 mins or until beginning to soften and turn translucent, then add the garlic and fry for 1 min. Stir in the rice and cook for 2 mins.
• Tip in the tomatoes and bring to a simmer. Add half the stock, cooking and stirring until absorbed. Add the remaining stock, a ladleful at a time, and cook until the rice is al dente, stirring constantly for around 20 mins.
• Stir through the parmesan, mascarpone and basil, and season to taste. Spoon into bowls to serve.

Steps:

• Tip the chopped tomatoes and half the stock into a food processor and pulse until smooth. Pour into a saucepan with the remaining stock, bring to a gentle simmer and keep over a low heat.
• Meanwhile, place the butter and oil in the base of a large saucepan and heat gently until the butter has melted. Add the onion and gently cook for 6-8 mins until softened. Stir in the garlic and rosemary, then cook for 1 min more. Add the rice and cook, stirring, for 1 min.
• Start adding the hot stock and tomato mixture about a quarter at a time. Let the risotto cook, stirring often, adding more stock as it is absorbed. After you have added half the stock, add the cherry tomatoes. After 20-25 mins, the rice should be creamy and tender, the cherry tomatoes softened and all of the stock should be used up.
• Cover and leave for 1 min, then stir in the basil. Serve sprinkled with Parmesan and a good grinding of black pepper.

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter.
• Add onions, cook and stir for one minute than add rice.
• Stir frequently and cook for 2 minutes.
• Add broth and undrained tomatoes, bring to a boil.
• Cover and reduce heat to low; simmer for 20 minutes stirring occasionally.
• Uncover skillet and simmer an additional 5 minutes, stir occasionally.
• Remove from heat, stir in cheese, salt, and pepper.
• Serve immediately.
