Provided by Laka

Categories     White Rice

Time 30m

Yield 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, chopped
250 g rice (Arborio or rice for risotto)
1/2 cup red wine
700 ml fish stock, from 1 cube, hot
350 g mussels, frozen
350 g shrimp, frozen
400 g of whole squid, thawed, cut into rings
1/3 cup canned tomato, chopped
50 g butter, cut into small pieces
1/3 cup grana padano or 1/3 cup parmesan cheese, grated
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Sauté onion and garlic in olive oil for 2-3 minutes over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally. Add the rice and toast lightly for 1-2 minutes without letting the rice or onion take on any color.
  • Add the wine and cook until almost completely absorbed. Add most of the hot fish stock (it should come about ½ inch above the rice) and bring to a simmer. Cook the risotto, stirring occasionally, until the rice has absorbed some of the liquid, about 8 minutes.
  • Add the mussels, shrimp and squid (tentacles as well), and tomatoes, and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the seafood is cooked and the rice is al dente, about 6 minutes. As the rice continues to absorb the liquid, add more as needed.
  • Remove the risotto from the heat, add butter Grana Padano or Parmesan cheese. Stir well to release the starches and make the risotto creamy.
  • Season with pepper and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: As with any complex dish, having all of your ingredients prepped and measured before you start cooking will make the process much smoother.
  • Use fresh seafood: The fresher the seafood, the better the dish will taste. If you can, buy live mussels, clams, and shrimp.
  • Be careful not to overcook the seafood: Seafood cooks quickly, so it's important to keep an eye on it and remove it from the heat as soon as it's cooked through.
  • Use a good quality saffron: Saffron is a key ingredient in this dish, so it's important to use a good quality saffron. Look for saffron that is a deep red color and has a strong aroma.
  • Don't be afraid to adjust the flavors: This recipe is a starting point, so feel free to adjust the flavors to your liking. For example, if you like a more spicy dish, you can add more chili flakes or cayenne pepper.

Conclusion:

Mussels, Clams, and Shrimp with Saffron Risotto and Green Olive Relish is a delicious and impressive dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The saffron risotto is creamy and flavorful, and the mussels, clams, and shrimp are cooked to perfection. The green olive relish adds a bright and salty flavor that complements the seafood and risotto perfectly. This dish is sure to impress your guests, and it's also relatively easy to make.
