A fruity risotto!
Ingredients:
(for 2 people)
- 2 oranges
- 250g Rising Sun Orange Rice
- 2 shallots
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 clove of garlic
- 1 pinch of saffron powder
- 2 cm fresh ginger
- about 500 ml vegetable broth
- fresh coriander
- freshly ground black pepper
- approx. 100 g freshly grated Parmesan
- 2 tbsp olive oil
Preparation:
- Peel and finely chop the shallots, ginger and garlic. Squeeze the juice from an orange and set aside.
- Heat olive oil in a large non-stick pan, then fry first shallots and then ginger. Add the garlic and bay leaf, sauté briefly and then add the rice.
- Stir well. When the rice is slightly translucent, pour in some vegetable stock. Stir, cover the pan and stir again after a few minutes. If necessary, add more broth.
- After about 15 - 20 minutes the rice should be cooked. In the meantime, fillet the second orange and pluck the coriander from the stems and chop it.
- When the rice is almost cooked, add the fresh orange juice and saffron powder. Then stir in the Parmesan and most of the chopped coriander. Season with a little black pepper.
- Pour the risotto into bowls, arrange orange fillets on top and sprinkle black pepper and a little coriander over it - done!
