CROCK POT RISOTTO WITH EDAMAME
Risotto can be very time-consuming. I make this in the crockpot and add edamame instead of fava beans. It is best served immediately or it will thicken.

RISOTTO WITH PARMIGIANO-REGGIANO IN A CROCK POT
Inspired by a favorite dish at a Scottsdale, AZ restaurant. It's the Basil Olive Oil used in the dish that makes it so yummy. I love Risotto but oh, the stirring and stirring... Here is a crockpot version that works great!! This recipe works as a terrific side dish but you can add other items to make it a complete meal in itself, such as shrimp etc.. I hope some of you will attempt this version.

Steps:
- Heat the basil oil in a saute pan over medium heat and saute the shallots until they have softened.
- Lightly coat the insert of crock pot with some extra basil olive oil.
- Add the sauted shallots and basil oil to the crockpot insert.
- Add the rice and coat it with the mixture.
- Stir in the wine.
- Stir in the chicken broth.
- Add the salt.
- Cover and cook on high for about 2 hours or until all the liquid is absorbed.
- Just before serving, stir in the cheese.
- Have extra grated cheese to put on top of each serving.
- If I was going to add shrimp, chicken, corn, salmon etc.
- ,I would add it after the cheese had been stirred in, allowing just enough time to warm up the item but not to overcook it.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your risotto. Look for Arborio or Carnaroli rice, which are both short-grain rices that are perfect for risotto.
- Toast the rice before adding the liquid. This will help to release the starch in the rice and create a creamy texture.
- Add the liquid slowly and stir constantly. This will help to prevent the rice from sticking together and will also help to develop the creamy texture.
- Cook the risotto until it is al dente. This means that it should be tender but still have a slight bite to it.
- Add your favorite toppings. Some popular options include Parmesan cheese, sautéed mushrooms, roasted vegetables, and grilled shrimp.
Conclusion:
Risotto is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for lunch, dinner, or even as a side dish. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make a delicious risotto at home. So next time you're looking for a new recipe to try, give crock-pot risotto a try. You won't be disappointed!
