Categories     Main Dish

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 medium beets (trimmed)
3 1/2 cups bone broth (or reduced-sodium chicken broth or vegetable broth)
3 cups water
1 small onion (finely chopped)
2 cloves garlic (minced)
2 tablespoons butter
2 cups Arborio rice
1/2 cup dry vermouth (or dry white wine)
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup goat cheese
1/4 cup fresh dill (chopped (for garnish) )

Steps:

  • Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 425°F.
  • Tightly wrap beets foil and roast on a baking sheet until tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Let cool slightly. Peel the beets under running cold water. Place two of the beets in a blender or food processor and process briefly, until somewhat smooth. Dice the remaining beet into 1/2 inch cubes.
  • While beets are cooling, bring broth and water to a simmer in a 2- to 3-quart saucepan.
  • Heat butter in a wide, heavy pot over moderate heat. Cook the garlic and onion until softened and fragrant. Add the rice and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute.
  • Add wine and stir until absorbed, about 1 minute. Using a ladle, stir in 1/2 cup warm broth and simmer briskly, stirring constantly, until broth is absorbed. Continue simmering and adding warm broth, one ladle at a time, stirring constantly and letting each addition be absorbed before adding the next, until rice is just tender and creamy-looking, 18 to 22 minutes.
  • Stir in beets, beet puree, vinegar, salt, and pepper and cook, stirring, until heated through.
  • Top bowls of risotto with crumbled goat cheese and dill. Serve immediately.

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 cups low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
3 medium red or golden beets (about 1 pound)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
3 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
1 1/4 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper, divided
1 1/2 cups arborio or carnaroli rice
4 teaspoons white wine or Champagne vinegar, divided, plus more
3 tablespoons heavy cream
4 tablespoons coarsely chopped parsley, divided
2 ounces fresh goat cheese, crumbled (optional)

Steps:

  • Bring broth and 5 cups water to a boil in a large pot over high heat. Reduce heat to low and gently simmer.
  • Meanwhile, peel beets, then coarsely shred using a food processor fitted with the shredder attachment or the large holes of a box grater.
  • Heat a large wide pot or sauté pan over medium-high. Cook butter and oil, stirring occasionally, until butter melts. Add onion and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add beets, 1 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper and sauté until tender, about 10 minutes more.
  • Add rice and cook, stirring constantly, about 2 minutes, then add 1 1/2 cups broth, 3 tsp. vinegar, and 1 tsp. salt. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring constantly, until liquid has evaporated. Continue adding broth, 3/4 cup at a time as rice absorbs liquid, stirring constantly and simmering until rice is tender, 30-40 minutes; season with 1 tsp. salt and 1/2 tsp. pepper halfway through. About 2 minutes before rice is al dente, add cream, 2 Tbsp. parsley, remaining 1 tsp. vinegar, 1/2 tsp. salt, and 1/4 tsp. pepper.
  • Divide among 4 plates or bowls, then top with goat cheese, if using, and remaining 2 Tbsp. parsley.

PINK RISOTTO WITH BEET GREENS AND ROASTED BEETS



Pink Risotto With Beet Greens and Roasted Beets image

This rich-tasting risotto is decidedly pink (maybe it will be the key to getting your picky family member to eat vegetables!). Use a full-bodied vegetable stock if you are vegetarian; otherwise use a well seasoned chicken or turkey stock.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 5 generously as a main dish

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 pound beets (1 bunch small), roasted
1 bunch beet greens, stemmed and washed
6 to 7 cups chicken or vegetable stock, as needed
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 1/2 cups Arborio or Carnarolli rice
2 garlic cloves, minced or pressed
1/2 cup red, rose, or dry white wine
Salt
Freshly ground pepper
1 to 2 ounces Parmesan cheese, grated (1/4 to 1/2 cup, to taste)
2 tablespoons finely chopped flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Bring the stock to a simmer in a saucepan. Season well and turn the heat to low. Stack the stemmed, washed greens and cut crosswise into 1-inch wide strips.
  • Heat the oil over medium heat in a large nonstick frying pan or wide, heavy saucepan and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until the onion begins to soften, about 3 minutes, and add the rice and garlic. Cook, stirring, until the grains of rice 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). Cook, stirring often, until it 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 10 minutes.
  • Stir in the greens and the diced beets, and continue adding more stock, enough to barely cover the rice, and stirring often, for another 10 to 15 minutes. Taste a bit of the rice. Is it cooked through? It should taste chewy but not hard in the middle. Definitely not soft like steamed rice. If it is still hard in the middle, you need to continue adding stock and stirring for another 5 minutes or so. Now is the time to ascertain if there is enough salt. Add if necessary.
  • 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 parsley. 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.

Provided by hannahclevenger

Categories     Salad     Green Salad Recipes     Mixed Greens Salad Recipes

Time 1h15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

5 medium beets
1 drizzle olive oil
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 eggs, beaten
½ cup all-purpose flour
½ cup dry bread crumbs
1 (4 ounce) log goat cheese, cut into small medallions
1 cup canola oil
1 (8 ounce) package mixed salad greens
2 tablespoons roasted sunflower seeds, or to taste
2 tablespoons balsamic vinaigrette dressing, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
  • Drizzle beets with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Wrap beets in aluminum foil and place in a large baking dish.
  • Roast in the preheated oven until beets are easily pierced with a knife, 45 minutes to 2 hours, depending on size.
  • Remove beets from the oven and let cool slightly. Unwrap, reserving any juice that is in the aluminum foil. Peel beets under warm water, cut into cubes, and place in a bowl.
  • Place egg, flour, and bread crumbs into 3 separate dishes. Season all 3 with salt and pepper.
  • Toss each goat cheese medallion in egg to coat, move to flour and coat then toss in bread crumbs, coating both sides evenly. Transfer medallions to a plate and place in the refrigerator to firm up, about 5 minutes.
  • Heat canola oil over medium heat in a frying pan until it sizzles. Place goat cheese medallions in hot oil and fry until golden, about 1 minute per side. Remove from oil and transfer to a plate lined with paper towels.
  • Place a bed of mixed greens on a serving platter and top with beets and goat cheese medallions. Sprinkle with sunflower seeds. Drizzle with balsamic dressing and reserved beet juice.
