Smoked Salmon Lemon Risotto Recipes

SMOKED SALMON & LEMON RISOTTO

Steps:

• Fry the onion in the oil for 5 minutes 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 minutes
• 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 some more pepper and salt if you like. Serve topped with reserved salmon (roughly torn) and serve with lemon wedges.

SMOKED SALMON RISOTTO

Steps:

• Dice the onion(s) into small dice. Saute in 1 butter until golden.
• Add rice and stir thoroughly to coat; cook over medium-high heat for about two minutes.
• Add the wine, salt and dill to the rice/onion mixture.
• Heat vegetable stock in a separate pot. Using a large soup ladle, add one ladleful to the rice at a time, stirring constantly in between additions. (This is somewhere between half a cup and a cup of stock.) Wait until the liquid is absorbed before adding the next ladleful. The whole process of adding liquid should take anywhere from 20-30 minutes.
• Take half of the smoked salmon and chop it fine. Add to remaining butter and cream thoroughly. Take the other half of the smoked salmon and coarsely chop it.
• About two minutes before the rice has finished cooking, add the butter/salmon mixture and the coarsely chopped salmon. Stir for another two minutes, until thoroughly incorporated and creamy. Add the parmesan and stir for another minute or two.
