Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 10

Roasted Winter Vegetables
1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 onion, finely chopped
3/4 cup/150 g Arborio rice
1/4 cup/60 ml dry white wine
2 to 2 1/4 cups/480 to 540 ml hot water, homemade or packaged organic chicken broth, or a mix
3/4 tsp kosher salt
Pinch of freshly ground black pepper
1 to 2 tbsp unsalted butter
1/4 cup/30 g freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, plus more for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F/200°C/gas 6. Roast the vegetables on a single baking sheet/tray on the top rack of the oven {the risotto will bake on the bottom rack}.
  • Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in an ovenproof saucepan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until it is soft and translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the rice and stir to coat with the oil. Stir in the wine and cook until the wine has evaporated, 1 minute more. Stir in 2 cups/480 ml of the hot water, salt, and pepper, and bring to a boil. Cover and transfer to the oven. Bake on the bottom rack during the last 25 minutes of roasting time for the vegetables. After 25 minutes, check the risotto. Most of the liquid should be absorbed and the rice just cooked.
  • Remove the risotto from the oven and stir in another 1/2 cup/120 ml hot cups of water, and the butter and cheese.
  • Serve topped with roasted vegetables with thin shavings of Parmigiano-Reggiano.

ORZO RISOTTO WITH ROASTED VEGETABLES



Orzo Risotto With Roasted Vegetables image

A recipe I found on Better Homes and Garden. Very good leftovers. Use the flavors you enjoy for spicing up the veggies, I prefer a spicier taste so I used cumin and cayenne. I have listed recommendations - if you find a spice that works well that's not listed, please let me know so I can add it to the list!
