Best Corn Risotto With Roasted Red Pepper Recipes

MONTEREY JACK, CORN AND ROASTED RED PEPPER RISOTTO

Steps:

• Combine the water and broth in a medium saucepan bringing to a simmer (not full boil). Keep warm over low heat.
• Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium high heat. Add rice, cumin and coriander and garlic, sauté one minute. Stri in 1/2 cup broth and cook until liquid is nearly absorbed, stirring constantly. Do this until done (about 20 minutes). Stir in onions, cheese, hot sauce, corn, and bell peppers; cook 3 minutes until thoroughly heated.

CORN RISOTTO

Steps:

• Bring the corn stock or chicken stock to a simmer in a saucepan and keep it simmering as you prepare the risotto.
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a wide, high-sided sauté pan over medium-low heat. Add leek and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened but not browned, about 6 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add rice and cook, stirring, until grains look slightly translucent.
• Pour in wine and cook, stirring, until it has all been absorbed, about 1 to 2 minutes.
• Add a ladleful of hot corn stock to the rice mixture and cook, stirring constantly, until rice has absorbed all of the stock. Continue cooking, adding ladlefuls of stock whenever rice mixture looks dry and stirring continuously. When half the stock has been added, stir in corn. Continue cooking until all of the stock is incorporated, corn is tender and rice is creamy and tender, about 30 to 40 minutes total.
• Remove risotto from heat and stir in Parmesan and remaining tablespoon of butter. Cover and let stand for 5 minutes.
• In an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat cream at high speed until it holds stiff peaks. Uncover risotto, stir vigorously and season to taste with salt and pepper. Immediately before serving, stir in the chives, if using, then gently fold in cream.
• Combine all ingredients with 6 cups water in a large pot. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat so liquid is simmering; cover pot and let simmer for 30 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh strainer. Add enough water to bring liquid up to 6 cups.

ROASTED RED PEPPER RISOTTO

Steps:

• Using a food processor, process the carrots and garlic together until finely minced.
• In a medium saucepan, saute carrot/garlic mixture and onions in olive oil.
• Add Galliano, salt, and pepper, and let caramelize (20-30 minutes) over low heat.
• While mixture is caramelizing, combine chicken stock, vegetable stock, and roasted red pepper puree and bring to a simmer.
• Add butter to caramelized veggies and let melt.
• Add rice, stirring to coat each grain.
• Cook 1-2 minutes.
• Add vermouth and cook 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly until all alcohol is evaporated.
• Add stock/pepper puree mixture one cup at a time and simmer, stirring constantly, until liquid is absorbed.
• Do not add any additional liquid until the previous liquid has been absorbed!
• Stir constantly, as this encourages release of the rice starch, creating the creamy texture.
• You may not need all of the stock mixture, or you may need to supplement with additional stock.
• Taste the mixture frequently and adjust with salt and pepper, but remember you will be adding cheese (which is salty) towards the end.
• When the rice is nearly done, add the vinegar.
• Adjust seasonings and add the oregano and tarragon.
• When the risotto has reached the correct texture (grains of rice will swell, rice should be al dente but not crunchy or chalky), remove from heat and stir in the cheese, adding more broth if necessary.

RED PEPPER RISOTTO

Steps:

• Bring the stock to a simmer in a saucepan, with a ladle nearby. Season generously with salt.
• Heat the olive oil in a large, wide, heavy skillet or saucepan over medium heat and add the onions or shallots. Cook gently until they begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic, peppers, and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring, until the peppers are limp and fragrant, about 8 to 10 minutes. Add the rice and stir over medium heat until the grains are separate and beginning to crackle, about 3 minutes.
• Stir in the wine and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly. The wine should bubble, but not too quickly. You want some of the flavor to cook into the rice before it evaporates. When the wine has just about evaporated, stir in a ladleful or two of the simmering stock (about 1/2 cup), enough to just cover the rice. The stock should bubble slowly (adjust heat accordingly). Rub the saffron threads between your fingers and add to the rice. Cook, stirring often, until the stock is just about absorbed. Add another ladleful or two of the stock and continue to cook in this fashion, not too fast and not too slowly, stirring often and adding more stock when the rice is almost dry, for 25 minutes, until the rice is cooked through but still a little chewy. Taste and adjust seasoning.
• When the rice is cooked through, add a generous amount of freshly ground pepper, and stir in another half cup of stock, the Parmesan and the herbs. Remove from the heat. The rice should be creamy; if it isn't, add a little more stock. Stir once, taste and adjust seasonings, and serve.

RED BELL PEPPER, POTATO AND CORN RISOTTO

Steps:

• Red bell pepper juice:
• Take about 7 red peppers, stem and seed them, then put through an extractor-type juicer.
• In a large non-reactive sucepan combine the potato cubes, corn kernels, pepper juice, paprika and cayenne. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring frequently, for 8 to 10 minutes or until the potatoes are just tender and the juice is reduced by about 1/3. Add a teaspoon of the lemon juice, taste, and add more if needed. Continue to reduce and, when the mixture is almost dry, add the cream and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 1 minute more, stir in the butter, and remove from the heat. Stir in the Parmesan, salt, and pepper. Serve immediately in warmed bowls, garnishe with a few sprigs of chevril and 2 grilled scallions
