Onion And Bacon Risotto Recipes

Steps:

• Cook and stir the diced bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon and reserve.
• Bring the chicken stock to a boil in a saucepan over high heat; reduce heat to low to keep the chicken stock hot.
• Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic; cook and stir until the onion begins to turn golden brown at the edges, about 2 minutes. Pour in the rice and stir until the rice is coated in butter and has started to toast, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce heat to medium; stir in one-third of the hot chicken stock and continue stirring until the rice has absorbed the liquid and turned creamy. Repeat this process twice more, stirring constantly. Stirring in the broth should take 15 to 20 minutes in all. When finished, the rice should be tender, yet slightly firm.
• Remove the risotto from the heat and stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter, the Parmesan cheese, and the reserved bacon. Season to taste with salt and pepper before serving.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large pan and cook the bacon and onion until the onion starts to color. Add the rice, stir around the pan for 5 minutes and pour on the wine. Let it evaporate then start adding the boiling stock a ladle at a time, waiting for the liquid to be absorbed before stirring in more. After 15 to 20 minutes the risotto will be cooked al dente. Remove from the heat and stir in the Parmesan and freshly ground black pepper. Serve at once.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a deep frying pan and cook the onion and bacon for 5 mins to soften. Add the mushrooms and cook for a further 5 mins until they start to release their juices. Stir in the rice and cook until all the juices have been absorbed.
• Add the stock, a ladleful at a time, stirring well and waiting for most of the stock to be absorbed before adding the next ladleful - it will take about 20 mins for all the stock to be added. Once the rice is cooked, season and serve with the grated Parmesan.

Steps:

• Finely chop 1 onion. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil and a knob of butter in a pan, add the onions and fry until lightly browned (about 7 minutes).
• Add 6 chopped rashers streaky bacon and fry for a further 5 minutes, until it starts to crisp.
• Add 300g risotto rice and 1l hot vegetable stock, and bring to the boil. Stir well, then reduce the heat and cook, covered, for 15-20 minutes until the rice is almost tender.
• Stir in 100g frozen peas, add a little salt and pepper and cook for a further 3 minutes, until the peas are cooked.
• Serve sprinkled with freshly grated parmesan and freshly ground black pepper.

Steps:

• Light a grill or preheat the oven to 350.
• Grill or roast the corn in the middle of the oven for about 15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the kernels are tender.
• Let cool slightly, then remove the husks and cut the kernels off the cob into a bowl; reserve the cobs.
• Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a large nonreactive saucepan.
• Add the sliced onions and cook over high heat, stirring frequently, until caramelized, about 25 minutes.
• Add to the corn kernels.
• Add the bacon to the saucepan and cook over high heat, stirring, until browned and crisp, about 3 minutes.
• Transfer to paper towels to drain.
• Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of the fat.
• In another large saucepan, bring the chicken stock and corn cobs just to a boil; keep warm.
• Meanwhile, heat the bacon fat.
• In a food processor, finely chop the onion, carrot and celery.
• Add to the bacon fat and cook over moderately high heat, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes.
• Add the rice and stir until evenly coated with fat.
• Add the white wine and stir constantly until almost all the liquid has been absorbed, about 2 minutes.
• Stir in the corn, sliced onions and bacon.
• Add 1 cup of the chicken stock to the rice and cook over moderate heat, stirring constantly, until absorbed.
• Continue adding stock, about 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly until absorbed before adding more.
• Cook until the rice is just tender, about 25 minutes.
• Stir in the remaining 4 tablespoons butter and the Parmesan and season with salt and pepper.
• If the risotto is too sticky, add a little more stock.
• Serve, garnished with chervil sprigs.
• NOTE:.
• To prepare corn for grilling, pull back the husks and remove the silk. Pull the husks back up over the corn and soak briefly.

Steps:

• In a 5-quart Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
• Add the onion and cook 3-4 minutes until soft and slightly transparent.
• Add the bacon and stir constantly until it starts to crisp.
• Add the mushrooms and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
• Add the arborio rice and cook for one minute, stirring constantly so the oil coats the grains.
• Stir in the white wine and simmer 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Add one cup (235ml) of the chicken stock and simmer over medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Once the rice absorbs most of the liquid, continue to add 1-2 cups (235-470ml) of stock at a time until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is cooked through, about 25-30 minutes total.
• NOTE: The risotto should be al dente and fall back in on itself when you run the spoon along the bottom of the pot.
• Stir in the Parmesan cheese and remove from the heat.
• Serve and garnish with extra Parmesan cheese.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• 1. Cook the diced bacon in a dutch oven over medium heat until brown and crispy, about 6 to 7 minutes. Drain bacon on paper towels and set aside.

• 5. Add 1 cup of the hot chicken broth to the rice and continue stirring until the rice has absorbed the liquid. Continue adding broth 1 to 2 cups at a time while continuously stirring, until rice has absorbed the liquid and mixture is creamy, about 25 to 30 minutes.
• 6. Turn off the heat and stir in the onions, bacon, Parmesan cheese and thyme.
• 7. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve.
