APPLE RISOTTO image

Yield 4 dinner servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Olive Oil
Pancetta, chopped or diced or whatever- about 3-4 slices
2 cloves garlic, crushed (I use the frozen cubes)
1 ½ C Arborio rice
3 C apple cider
4 C chicken stock
~ ½ tsp cinnamon
~ ¼ tsp dry mustard
~ 1 tbsp grade A maple syrup
3 tbsp unsalted butter
~ ¼- ½ C grated parmigiano cheese

Steps:

  • 1) In a sauté pan, combine the olive oil (you don't need much, just a little to keep the pancetta from initially sticking) and pancetta over medium heat. Add garlic. Sauté for a few minutes- the garlic can brown lightly, and the fat from the pancetta will start to render. The pancetta should get cooked, but probably won't get crispy. If, after the fat is rendered, you think there's too much in the pan, just pour some off. You don't need more than maybe a few tablespoons in the bottom of the pan to coat the rice. 2) In a small saucepan, heat the apple cider and chicken stock (mixed), until it's steaming, but not boiling. Add the cinnamon, dry mustard, and maple syrup, and mix in. 3) Add the rice to the sauté pan and stir for ~ 2 minutes, until it is almost opaque. Add the cider/stock mixture by the ladleful until the rice is just covered, and turn the heat up to high. Bring the liquid to a boil. Cook, stirring, until the stock begins to be absorbed. As the level of stock drops, add more by the ladleful to keep the rice covered, and stir almost constantly. The rice should cook for probably about 20 minutes, until it is plumped and al dente, but tender and creamy. 4) Remove the rice pan from the heat, add the butter and parmigiano, and mix until the butter is melted and the cheese is mixed in. Makes 4 dinner size servings or around 6-8 side servings.

I would love to try this recipe, but I don't have a lot of experience cooking risotto. Do you have any tips for a beginner?

I'm not a big fan of risotto, but this recipe was actually pretty good. The apples and cheese added a nice flavor and texture.

I love apple risotto! It's one of my favorite fall dishes. This recipe is a great starting point, but I like to add a few extra ingredients to make it my own.

This risotto was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred a less sweet apple variety.

I was a bit skeptical about this recipe, but I'm so glad I tried it. The apple and cheese combination is surprisingly delicious. I'll definitely be making this again.

This apple risotto was a delightful surprise! The combination of sweet apples, savory cheese, and nutty rice was absolutely perfect. I especially loved the crispy sage leaves on top - they added a nice touch of texture and flavor.
