Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 small onion
1 pound red beets with greens (about 3 medium)
4 cups water
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) unsalted butter
1 cup Arborio or long-grain rice
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan (about 1 1/2 ounces)
1 tablespoon bottled horseradish

Steps:

  • Finely chop onion and trim stems close to tops of beets. Cut greens into 1/4-inch-wide slices and chop stems. Peel beets and cut into fine dice. In a small saucepan bring water to a simmer and keep at a bare simmer.
  • In a 3-quart heavy saucepan cook onion in butter over moderate heat until softened. Add beets and stems and cook, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes. Stir in rice and cook, stirring constantly, 1 minute. Stir in 1 cup simmering water and cook, stirring constantly and keeping at a strong simmer, until absorbed. Continue cooking at a strong simmer and adding water, about 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly and letting each addition be absorbed before adding next. After 10 minutes, stir in greens and continue cooking and adding water, about 1/2 cup at a time, in same manner until rice is tender and creamy-looking but still al dente, about 8 minutes more. (There may be water left over.) Remove pan from heat and stir in Parmesan.
  • Serve risotto topped with horseradish.

I tried this recipe and it was a disaster. The risotto was overcooked and the beets were mushy. I would not recommend this recipe.

I wasn't a fan of this recipe. The risotto was bland and the beets were too overpowering. I would not recommend this recipe.

This was an interesting take on risotto. The beets gave it a nice color and the horseradish added a bit of spice. However, I found the flavor of the beets to be a bit too strong for my liking.

Just made this for dinner and it was delicious! The risotto was creamy and flavorful, and the horseradish gave it a nice kick. My only suggestion would be to add a bit more salt to the dish.

I tried this recipe last night and it was a hit! My husband, who is not a big fan of beets, even went back for seconds. The flavors were well-balanced and the risotto was cooked to perfection. I will definitely be making this again.

Simply stunning! The risotto had an exquisite taste, with the sweetness of the beets balancing the sharpness of the horseradish beautifully. The texture was spot-on, creamy yet al dente. My family loved it and I'll definitely make it again.

This beet and beet green risotto was a delightful culinary journey. The vibrant colors of the beets and the fresh aroma of the beet greens filled my kitchen with a sense of rustic charm. The creamy texture of the risotto was perfectly complemented by
