SAFFRON RISOTTO CAKES WITH SHRIMP, CHILE OIL, AND CHIVE OIL
Steps:
- Combine 4 1/2 cups broth and saffron in medium saucepan; bring to boil. Remove from heat; cover to keep warm. Heat olive oil in another medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and saute until tender, about 6 minutes. Add rice; stir 1 minute. Add wine; stir until absorbed, about 1 minute. Add 1/2 cup saffron broth; stir until absorbed, about 4 minutes. Continue adding broth, 1/2 cup at a time, until rice is just tender, allowing each addition to be absorbed before adding next and stirring frequently, about 20 minutes total. Season risotto with salt and pepper. Spray rimmed baking sheet with nonstick spray. Spread risotto on prepared sheet, forming irregular 13x9-inch rectangle. Cover with plastic wrap; refrigerate until cold and firm, about 2 hours. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Keep chilled.) Preheat oven to 300. Place rice flour in medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Using 2-inch-diameter cookie cutter, cut out 24 rounds from risotto. Dredge risotto cakes in rice flour; place on clean baking sheet. Heat 4 tablespoons canola oil in large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, add risotto cakes to skillet and cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer risotto cakes to another baking sheet; place in oven to keep warm. Sprinkle shrimp with salt and pepper. Heat remaining 2 tablespoons canola oil in another large skillet over high heat. Add shrimp and saute until just opaque in center, about 2 minutes per side. Top each risotto cake with 1 shrimp. Drizzle shrimp with Red Chile Oil and Chive Oil and serve. MARKET TIP: White rice flour is available at natural foods stores and some supermarkets. Its fine texture produces a light, crispy coating on pan-fried foods.
