Risi E Bisi Italian Rice And Peas Rice Cooker Recipes

Steps:

• Place chicken stock in a small pot and warm over low heat.
• Heat a medium sized skillet over medium heat. Add extra-virgin olive oil 2 turns of the pan, and garlic. Saute garlic 1 minute, then add Arborio. Toast the Arborio rice 2 minutes, then ladle in 1/3 of the stock. Bring to a bubble. Stir rice occasionally, allowing the rice to get starchy and the stock to cook into the rice. Add more stock when rice starts to become dry. Continue stirring and ladling broth until rice is al dente, 22 minutes. Stir in peas and cheese and season with salt and pepper, to your taste. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat broth in a small pot on the back burner over medium-low.
• Set a wide, shallow, long-handled pan over medium-low. Melt 2 tablespoons butter and 2 tablespoons olive oil until butter foams. Set the remaining 1 tablespoon butter back in the fridge to keep cold.
• Add scallions, season with a pinch of salt and stir until sweated and soft, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Add zucchini coins, season with a pinch of salt, and stir until they start to sweat, begin to soften and become a little translucent, about 2 minutes.
• Push vegetables out to the edge of the pan in a ring, leaving an empty space in the center. Adjust heat - a tad hotter - then add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, then rice. Stir rice until coated and glistening, and keep stirring until it begins sizzling slightly.
• Microplane the garlic over the sizzling rice, then draw the vegetables into the rice as well, stirring well to combine, leaving a little space - a moatlike ring - along the edges where the vegetables were.
• Add the peas to the empty outer space you just created. Run your spoon through them, keeping them in their outer ring, coating them in the oil and moisture. Season the whole business with another pinch of salt.
• Ladle a generous cup of hot broth over the rice mixture in the center, seasoning with salt at each addition of broth, and stirring as the liquid is absorbed. Add another generous cupful of broth, stirring the rice while it absorbs. Repeat once more with a third cup of hot broth, stirring until the rice starts to show signs of its signature starchy and creamy nature. Keep the peas at the outer edge as much as possible. (This might remind you of making homemade pasta, when you are whisking the eggs in the well of the flour and very slowly drawing in the flour.) This entire step should take about 20 minutes. Adjust the heat slightly along the way for a very gentle, hot steaming - not hard simmering - stirring all the while.
• Add the remaining broth all at once. The peas and vegetables will slightly float on the surface, while the rice will naturally remain submerged. Stir gently or shake and swirl the pan in the classic cresting, swelling wave style, all'onde, bringing everything together - rice, zucchini, peas, broth - about 7 more minutes, maybe 10 at most.
• Turn off heat. Season assertively with black pepper. Stir or swirl in the remaining chilled butter, and finish with the grated cheese. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Saute rice, onions, garlic and bacon in a skillet with the olive oil until bacon is done, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• In saucepan, mix the broths with the water and bring to a boil. Add the Italian seasoning and basil.
• Add both mixtures to slow cooker. Cover and cook on low 2-3 hours, until liquid is absorbed.
• Stir in peas. Cover and cook 30 minutes more. Stir in cheese.

Steps:

• Melt 2 oz of butter in a saucepan.
• Add chopped onion and celery, cook until just translucent.
• Add rice, cook a few minutes more, stirring to coat the rice with butter.
• Add wine, 1 cup of boiling water and crumbled stock cubes.
• Bring to a boil, add peas.
• Reduce heat, simmer uncovered until the water has evaporated.
• Add another cup of boiling water, cook until evaporated.
• Add the final cup of boiling water.
• Keep cooking until the water is almost absorbed.
• Overall cooking time is about 20 minutes.
• Stir in the Parmesan cheese and 1 oz butter.
• Add salt& pepper to taste.

Steps:

• In a large non stick pan sauté the onions in the butter and oil until they're translucent being careful not to brown them.
• Add the peas and a half cup of the broth and cook them for about five minutes.
• Add approximately one quart of broth and bring to a boil.
• Add the rice and mix in well. Continue cooking until the rice is ready mixing often.
• If the rice gets too dry add some more broth.
• Mix in 1 tablespoons butter and 1/4 cup grated parmesan. Serve hot.
