From Made in America
Course: Dinner
Cuisine: Italian
Author: Gaby

Ingredients

  • 4 cups arugula
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 cup arborio rice
  • 2 tbsp shallots minced
  • 1/4 cup white wine
  • 4 cups vegetable stock
  • 1 tbsp mascarpone cheese
  • 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
  • salt

Instructions

  • Blanch the arugula in boiling salted water for 30 seconds and then submerge in an ice bath to keep the color in tact. Transfer arugula to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth.
  • Heat a saute pan over medium heat and add the olive oil and rice. Stir for about 30 seconds until the rice just begins to toast. Add the shallots and give it a quick stir.
  • Continue to cook the rice for about 1 more minute and then add the wine. Once the wine has evaporated, add the vegetable stock, 1/2 cup at a time. Stir the rice constantly and add another 1/2 cup of stock once the previous addition has been absorbed. Continue this process till you have no more stock.
  • Once all the stock has been absorbed, remove the rice from the heat and add the mascarpone and parmesan cheese as well as the blended arugula. Season with salt and stir to combine.
  • Let the risotto sit for 2 minutes and then serve.
