Hi all of you food enthousiasts,
Do you have a favourite recipe that you would like to share?
My recent favourite is truffle risotto:
1 liter chicken broth 4 tbsp diced 1 small black truffel, coarsely grated 2x 1 tablespoon truffel olive oil 1 schallot - peeled and diced
4 tbsp dry white wine
1 clove of garlic peeled and minced 350 gm Aborio rice 3 tbsp butter, room temperature 4 tbsp freshly-grated Pecorino Cheese
S&P to taste
Preparation:
Heat the chicken broth.
In a large heavy pan over medium heat, heat truffel olive oil; add schallot and sauté for 1 to 2 minutes or until soft (be careful not to brown the onions).
Add the garlic then the rice. Using a wooden spoon, stir for 1 minute, making sure all the grains are well coated (toasting the rice in melted butter keeps it from getting mushy). Turn up the heat and add the wine all at once and let cook for 1 minute so the alcohol is burnt off. Reduce the heat again.
Add the hot chicken broth a little at a time, stirring frequently from the bottom of the pan. Wait until the broth is almost completely absorbed before adding the next amount.
When the rice is done, but still has a litle 'bite', turn off the heat and immediately add butter, grated truffel, mushrooms, Pecorino and 1 tablespoon truffle oil, stirring carefully to combine with the rice. Add S&P to taste.
Enough for 4 portions
