Provided by Kimberly Killebrew, www.daringgourmet.com

Time 35m

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
½ cup finely chopped onion
1½ cups arborio rice or carnaroli rice (recommended)
¼ cup dry white wine
4 cups hot fish stock, reserve ¼ cup
¼ cup finely chopped preserved lemon
2 tablespoons fresh dill (recommended) or ½ teaspoon dried
¾ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon butter
12 ounces cooked, flaked salmon

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a medium stock pot, preferably one with a smaller diameter so the liquid evaporates more slowly. Cook the onions until soft and translucent, 5-7 minutes. Add the arborio rice and cook for another minute. Add the white wine, bring to a boil, and boil until the wine is mostly evaporated, 2-3 minutes.
  • Add about a quarter of the hot fish stock. Cook, stirring regularly, until most of the broth has evaporated. Stir in the preserved lemon, the dill and the salt.
  • Continue adding the broth, ¼ cup at a time, stirring regularly as the rice absorbs the broth and begins to swell and become creamy in texture (this will take 20-25 minutes). Lastly, stir in the butter and then carefully the salmon. Stir in the reserved ¼ cup broth if the rice is too dry. Add salt to taste.
  • Serve immediately garnished with some fresh dill.

Provided by Adina

Categories     Pasta and Rice

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 liter/ 34 fl.oz/ 4 ¼ cups stock (Note 1)
1 small onion
2 tablespoons butter (divided)
200 ml/ 6.7 fl.oz/ ¾ cup white wine (Note 2)
250 g/ 8.8 oz/ 1 ¼ cup risotto rice
1 tablespoon olive oil
250 g/ 8.8 oz/ salmon fillet (without skin)
4 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan
small bunch of dill
fine sea salt and black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the stock in a jug pot. Leave it on low heat, it should remain hot while you cook the risotto, but it should not boil.
  • Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven. Chop the onion very finely and cook it for about 2 minutes until translucent, it should not get any color.
  • Add the rice (unwashed) and stir well to coat it with the butter. Stir for about 2 minutes, it should start looking glossy.
  • Pour white wine and stir until all the wine is evaporated. If you don't want to use wine, replace it with stock.
  • Slowly, start adding the stock, about 1-2 ladleful at a time. Stir well but gently after each addition. You don't have to stir continuously, but stir often, it helps release the starches in the rice making the risotto creamy. This should take about 25 minutes, but check the packet's instructions concerning the cooking time. The rice should be soft, but not mushy.
  • Stir in the grated Parmesan and the remaining butter. Stir well to melt the butter and the cheese, the rice should be creamy and glossy. Adjust the taste with some salt, if necessary.
  • Remove from the heat, cover, and let stand while you sear the salmon in the pan.
  • Cut the fish fillets into cubes, about 2 cm/ 0.8 inches. Heat the olive oil in a non-stick pan. Add the fish to the pan and sear, stirring often but gently, for 3-4 minutes. It should be just cooked through, it will continue cooking once you've stirred into the risotto.
  • Add the salmon cubes and the chopped dill to the rice and combine gently.

SALMON WITH LEMON AND DILL



Salmon with Lemon and Dill image

This is a wonderful (and easy) recipe I got from my Aunt. The flavors of lemon and dill really complement the fish. I like to use wild Alaskan salmon for this recipe, but any salmon will work. I usually don't measure, so these are all estimates. Play with the ingredients to suit your own tastes!

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients prepped and measured. This will help you stay organized and ensure that your risotto cooks evenly.
  • Use Arborio Rice: Arborio rice is a short-grain rice that is specifically designed for risotto. It has a high starch content, which helps to create a creamy texture.
  • Toast the Rice: Toasting the rice before adding the liquid helps to bring out its flavor and prevent it from sticking together.
  • Add Liquid Gradually: Don't add all of the liquid at once. Instead, add it in small increments, stirring constantly. This will help the rice to absorb the liquid evenly and prevent it from becoming too soupy.
  • Stir Constantly: Stirring the risotto constantly is essential to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot and burning.
  • Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs, such as dill and lemon zest, add a bright and flavorful touch to the risotto.
  • Don't Overcook the Risotto: Risotto should be cooked until it is al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked risotto will be mushy and bland.
  • Serve Immediately: Risotto is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will prevent it from becoming too thick and gloppy.

Conclusion:

Salmon risotto with dill and lemon is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. It is made with simple ingredients, but the combination of flavors is complex and satisfying. The creamy texture of the risotto pairs perfectly with the tender salmon and the bright, citrusy flavors of the dill and lemon. This dish is sure to impress your guests, and it is also a great way to enjoy the health benefits of salmon.
