RISOTTO WITH ASPARAGUS



Risotto with Asparagus image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 bunches thick asparagus (about 2 pounds)
1 sprig fresh thyme or lemon thyme
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 large shallot, diced
2 cups arborio rice
Kosher salt
1/3 cup dry white wine
2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
Freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 head Bibb lettuce, cut into strips
8 ounces robiola or taleggio cheese, thinly sliced
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling

Steps:

  • Peel the bottom third of the asparagus stalks with a vegetable peeler. Snap each stalk where it breaks naturally; reserve 4 of the peeled bottoms for crostini (below). Thinly slice 6 asparagus bottoms and place the rest of the bottoms in a saucepan with 8 cups water and the thyme to make asparagus broth; bring to a simmer.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the shallot and cook, stirring, until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the rice and cook, stirring, until glossy, about 1 minute. Add 1 1/4 teaspoons salt. Pour in the wine and stir until absorbed. Stir in 1/2 cup of the asparagus broth until absorbed (use a ladle to add the broth, keeping the solids in the pan). Continue to add broth in 1/2-cup increments, stirring constantly and allowing the liquid to be absorbed before adding more, about 10 minutes. (You should have about half the broth left.) Stir in the sliced asparagus bottoms and the lemon zest. Add the remaining broth, 1/2 cup at a time, until the rice is just tender, 5 to 8 more minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place the asparagus tips in a large skillet, cover with water and season with salt and pepper. Simmer over medium-high heat until just tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, the parmesan and lemon juice to the risotto. Stir in the lettuce, remove from the heat and season with salt. Divide among bowls, top with the robiola and season with pepper. Drizzle the asparagus tips with olive oil and spoon over the risotto.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 2h30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 lbs fresh asparagus spears
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
4 plump garlic cloves, crushed and peeled
2 cups potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2 inch cubes
3 cups chopped leeks, 1/4 inch pieces, white and green
5 quarts water
2 bay leaves
1 tablespoon coarse sea salt or 1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 cup arborio rice
fresh ground black pepper, to taste
1 cup freshly grated grana padano or 1 cup parmigiano-reggiano cheese

Steps:

  • Rinse the asparagus; snap off the tough bottom stubs.
  • Slice the spears crosswise into 1/3 inch chunks, including the tips.
  • Pour 1/3 cup olive oil into a large pot, drop in the crushed garlic, and set over med-high heat.
  • Golden the garlic for a minute or two, just until fragrant and lightly colored, and stir the potato cubes into the hot oil.
  • Cook/stir occasionally, until the potatoes are crusty and starting to stick to the bottom but not browned-lower the heat if necessary-4-5 minutes.
  • Stir in the chopped leeks; cook until softened and sizzling, 3-4 minutes.
  • Pour 5 quarts water into the pot; add in the bay leaves and tablespoon salt; stir well, scraping up any crusty potatoes on the bottom.
  • Cover, and bring to a boil over high heat; stir in all the asparagus, return to a boil, and adjust heat to keep the broth bubbling steadily and slowly reducing.
  • Cook uncovered about 1 ½ hours, stirring occasionally, until the soup volume is reduced by almost a third and the broth is full of flavor-tasting is the way to test for doneness.
  • Stir in the rice and return to a boil; cook for 10 minutes, until the grains are al dente, then turn the heat off.
  • Season with freshly ground black pepper, and more salt to taste.
  • Stir in 2 tablespoons olive oil and ½ cup grated cheese.
  • Serve immediately in warm bowls, with more cheese and oil at the table.

CHICKEN SOUP WITH ASPARAGUS AND RICE



Chicken Soup With Asparagus and Rice image

This was an experiment that turned into a pleasant surprise. I started with a recipe from the Zuni Cafe Cookbook and added a few ingredients for taste and color and increased the quantity for my hungry family. It requires some chopping but comes together rather quickly and is very tasty! (Made in the Midwest with Michigan Asparagus:)

Provided by Acerast

Categories     Vegetable

Time 50m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 large onion, diced
2 stalks celery, diced
1 large carrot, peeled and diced
3/4 cup rice, uncooked
12 cups chicken stock
3 ounces pancetta, diced
16 ounces asparagus, fresh
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 cups cooked chicken, diced (optional)
salt
black pepper

Steps:

  • In a stockpot, saute the diced onion, celery and carrot in 2 Tablespoons of the olive oil, until the onions are translucent, about 8-10 minutes.
  • Stir in the rice and add the chicken stock.
  • Bring the stock to a simmer, cover and cook on low until the rice is tender, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, wash the asparagus and trim off the woody ends. (Throw them away or use them to make vegetable stock for another recipe.).
  • Slice the asparagus in 1-inch lengths on the bias, collecting the tips separately (because they cook very quickly and will be added last).
  • Heat the remaining 2 Tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet.
  • Saute the pancetta and asparagus pieces (not the tips yet) about 5 minutes, stirring as needed. The idea is to soften the asparagus but not cook it entirely.
  • Add the asparagus tips and saute an additional minute.
  • When the rice in the stock pot is tender, add the lemon juice, diced chicken, and the pancetta/aspargus mixture.
  • Bring to a boil; remove from heat.
  • Season with salt and pepper.
  • Serve.
