Categories     dinner, main course

Time 45m

Yield 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 to 5 cups no-salt-added vegetable or chicken stock
2 ounces (1/2 chopped) onion
2 teaspoons olive oil
3 large ears of corn (2 cups corn kernels)
1 cup arborio rice
1/2 cup dry vermouth
8 ounces ripe tomatoes -- yellow if possible
Several sprigs fresh basil to yield 1/4 cup chopped
2 ounces Parmigiano Reggiano (1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons coarsely grated)
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
10 ounces cooked peeled shrimp

Steps:

  • Bring stock to a simmer in a saucepan.
  • Chop the onion.
  • Heat the oil in a nonstick pot, and saute the onion until it takes on a little color.
  • Meanwhile, start scraping corn off the cobs.
  • When the onion is ready, stir in the rice until it is well coated.
  • Stir in the vermouth, and cook until it has evaporated, a couple of minutes. Continue scraping corn off the cobs.
  • When the wine has evaporated, add about a cup of the stock to the rice and cook over medium-high heat, stirring often, until liquid has been absorbed. Repeat until rice is tender but firm.
  • Meanwhile, finish scraping corn; wash, trim and coarsely chop the tomatoes.
  • After adding next to the last cup of stock, wash, dry and chop the basil. About 2 minutes before the rice is cooked, add corn kernels, tomatoes and basil, and stir well. You may not need to add all of the stock.
  • Grate the cheese, and stir into the rice just before serving. Season with pepper.
  • Arrange the risotto on a platter, and surround with shrimp.
