Yield Makes about 5 cups

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 14 1/2-ounce can vegetable broth
1 cup dry white wine
1 large onion, chopped
1 large leek (white and pale green parts), chopped
1 cup medium-grain white rice
2 large garlic cloves, chopped
1 15- to 16-ounce can red beans or kidney beans, rinsed, drained
1 large head radicchio or 1/4 head curly endive, thinly sliced (about 2 cups)
2 arugula bunches, thinly sliced (about 1 cup) or 1 cup sliced curly endive
Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • Bring broth and wine to boil in heavy large saucepan. Add onion, leek, rice and garlic and bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer uncovered until rice is tender and mixture is thick and creamy, stirring occasionally, about 30 minutes.

This risotto was a bit too bland for my taste. I would have liked it more if it had more garlic and herbs.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my risotto turned out gluey. I think I added too much liquid.

I would have liked this risotto more if it had more vegetables in it. I added some chopped carrots and celery, and it was much better.

I'm not a big fan of green beans, but I actually really enjoyed them in this risotto. They were cooked perfectly and added a nice crunch.

This bean and green risotto was a hit with my family! It was creamy, flavorful, and had a nice balance of textures. The green beans added a pop of color and crunch, and the Parmesan cheese added a salty, nutty flavor.
