If you ever find yourself on one of his shows, you'd better damn well know how to cook a perfect risotto, here is a recipe found on Food.com. Learn it, or "get out of my kitchen you stupid cow!!"
Gordon Ramsay's Tomato and Mushroom Risotto
- 1 large shallot, chopped finely
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 8 ounces baby portabella mushrooms, sliced
- 10 ounces arborio rice
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 4 cups low sodium chicken broth
- 8 ounces plum tomatoes, skinned, seeded and finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped
- 2 tablespoons mascarpone cheese
- 3 tablespoons freshly grated parmesan cheese
- sea salt
- fresh ground black pepper
Prep Time: 10 mins | Total Time: 55 mins
Directions:
- In a large saucepan sauté the shallots with the olive oil for about 3 to 4 minutes and then add the mushrooms and continue to sauté for another 5 minutes, stirring frequently until softened.
- Stir in the rice and cook for another minute or two. Add the wine, stir and cook until absorbed. Pour in a quarter of the chicken broth, bring to a boil and cook until absorbed, stirring frequently.
- Gradually stir in the rest of the broth over a period of about 15 minutes, adding more as each previous amount is absorbed. This helps to give you a creamy risotto.
- When the rice is al dente, mix in the tomatoes and herbs. Check the seasoning and stir in the cheeses. Serve in warmed bowls topped with shaved aged Parmesan.
