Martha Stewart's Oven-Baked Risotto |
Cupcakes for Marla's Birthday |
While we were all oohing and aahing over our risotto, Kim, who was seated to my right, said she had a good recipe for oven-baked risotto that she got from the Ocean Spray Web site. That made me curious, so when I got home I looked it up and found it, linked here. I continued investigating, and found one that I will also try. It's Martha Stewart's recipe for oven-baked risotto, and I am posting it here:
OVEN-BAKED RISOTTO
from Martha Stewart
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
3/4 cup Arborio rice
1/4 cup dry white wine, (optional)
2 to 2 1/4 cups hot water
1/2 cup homemade or low sodium canned chicken stock
3/4 teaspoon coarse salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, (optional)
Directions
1.Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In an ovenproof saucepan or Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the rice and cook, stirring to coat the grains with oil, about 1 minute.
2.Stir in the wine and cook until it has completely evaporated, about 1 minute. Stir in 1 1/2 cups water, the stock, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil. Cover, transfer to the oven, and bake, until most of the liquid has been absorbed by the rice, 20 to 25 minutes.
3.Remove from oven. Stir in 1/2 to 3/4 cup water (the consistency of the risotto should be creamy), the butter, cheese, and parsley. Serve immediately.

This is awesome Jeannie! You are the best. Finn loves, loves, loves the banana walnut muffins you made. One question, I never know what to use as a "dry white wine" for cooking---any suggestions?
ReplyDeleteWe made the risotto tonight and it was excellent! Though I was looking for some fantastic chocolate cupcakes after!! (Kim we just bought a white wine we like to drink and then used it for the risotto and for the meal :-)!!)
