Red chicory risotto
Category: First dish
Nb persons: 2
2/3 cup olive oil - EVOO
1 medium onion - chopped
300gr rice - (I have used whole rice, but you can
-use all the kind of rice that you prefer)
6 cups lukeworm mushrooms broth - (I have used cubes
-of porcini's broth, but you can also use meat
-broth cubes)
1 cup red wine - (the same that you will drink at
-table)
1 tsp salt
1tsp pepper
1tsp Toscana's herbs - dried (if you don't have
-put some mix of dried herbs)
1tsp provence's herbs - dried ( " )
1/2 cup reggiano cheese
2 tsp truffle butter - (if you don't have put
-normal butter)
1/4 cup ready white truffle sauce - (if you don't
-have it put some fontina cheese softened with
-milk)
1/3 cup chive - (if you don't have put some fresh
-thime leaves or parsley leaves)
Worm water and add the mushrooms cube broth.
In a large "risottiera" or a cast iron frying pan for risotto, put oil,
chopped onions and chopped red chicory, then add a pinch of salt and
pepper. When red chicory is whitered, add rice and mix for other 5 minutes
.. Then evaporate rice with red wine. When all the wine is absorbed, continue
to mix the rice adding the broth (one at a time) and the herbs. It will take
about 20 minutes for the rice to be ready). When rice is ready , turn off
the fire and add :truffle sauce, truffle butter, reggiano cheese and chive
for garnishing.
Serve!
Have a good meal
