Best 8 Pink Beet Risotto With Crispy Goat Cheese Medallions Recipes

BEET RISOTTO RECIPE

Steps:

• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 425°F.
• Tightly wrap beets foil and roast on a baking sheet until tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Let cool slightly. Peel the beets under running cold water. Place two of the beets in a blender or food processor and process briefly, until somewhat smooth. Dice the remaining beet into 1/2 inch cubes.
• While beets are cooling, bring broth and water to a simmer in a 2- to 3-quart saucepan.
• Heat butter in a wide, heavy pot over moderate heat. Cook the garlic and onion until softened and fragrant. Add the rice and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute.
• Add wine and stir until absorbed, about 1 minute. Using a ladle, stir in 1/2 cup warm broth and simmer briskly, stirring constantly, until broth is absorbed. Continue simmering and adding warm broth, one ladle at a time, stirring constantly and letting each addition be absorbed before adding the next, until rice is just tender and creamy-looking, 18 to 22 minutes.
• Stir in beets, beet puree, vinegar, salt, and pepper and cook, stirring, until heated through.
• Top bowls of risotto with crumbled goat cheese and dill. Serve immediately.

PINK BEET RISOTTO WITH CRISPY GOAT CHEESE MEDALLIONS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
• For the risotto: Combine the broth with 2 cups water in a large pot over high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a low gentle simmer.
• Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a Dutch oven or other heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 2 to 3 minutes.
• While the onions cook, run a knife over the shredded beets to chop them into rice-size pieces, or remove the shredding blade from the food processor, insert the chopping blade, add the beets and pulse to chop.
• Add the beets and garlic to the Dutch oven. Season with salt and pepper. Add the rice and stir well to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally, to gently "toast" the rice, about 1 minute. Stir in the wine or vermouth and let cook until the liquid is absorbed. Add 1 1/2 cups of the hot broth, stir, then let simmer, stirring regularly, until the broth is absorbed, 3 to 5 minutes. Continue adding the remaining hot broth about 1 cup at time, stirring regularly and letting it absorb before adding more. Keep stirring in the hot broth until the risotto is loose and creamy and the grains of rice are tender with a tiny hint of an al dente bite (you may not use all of the broth), about 25 minutes total.
• Remove from the heat and stir in the butter, grated cheese and the 2 ounces goat cheese. Stir until evenly incorporated. Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper, as needed.
• While the risotto cooks, make the goat cheese medallions: Slice the goat cheese into 3/4-inch-thick rounds. If desired, use your hands to gently form each into a heart shape.
• Put the flour and panko in two separate shallow baking dishes. Season each with a pinch of salt. In a third dish, beat the egg with 2 tablespoons water until frothy.
• Dip each of the goat cheese medallions in the flour until well coated, then dip into the egg, then finally in the panko until fully coated, then back into the egg, then again in the panko for a final coat. (The double panko coat will make these extra crunchy!)
• Place the medallions on the prepared baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil and bake until crunchy and golden, about 10 minutes.
• Divide the risotto into serving bowls and top with the crispy goat cheese medallions. Serve immediately.

BEET RISOTTO

Steps:

• Bring broth and 5 cups water to a boil in a large pot over high heat. Reduce heat to low and gently simmer.
• Meanwhile, peel beets, then coarsely shred using a food processor fitted with the shredder attachment or the large holes of a box grater.
• Heat a large wide pot or sauté pan over medium-high. Cook butter and oil, stirring occasionally, until butter melts. Add onion and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add beets, 1 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper and sauté until tender, about 10 minutes more.
• Add rice and cook, stirring constantly, about 2 minutes, then add 1 1/2 cups broth, 3 tsp. vinegar, and 1 tsp. salt. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring constantly, until liquid has evaporated. Continue adding broth, 3/4 cup at a time as rice absorbs liquid, stirring constantly and simmering until rice is tender, 30-40 minutes; season with 1 tsp. salt and 1/2 tsp. pepper halfway through. About 2 minutes before rice is al dente, add cream, 2 Tbsp. parsley, remaining 1 tsp. vinegar, 1/2 tsp. salt, and 1/4 tsp. pepper.
• Divide among 4 plates or bowls, then top with goat cheese, if using, and remaining 2 Tbsp. parsley.

PINK RISOTTO WITH BEET GREENS AND ROASTED BEETS

Steps:

• Bring the stock to a simmer in a saucepan. Season well and turn the heat to low. Stack the stemmed, washed greens and cut crosswise into 1-inch wide strips.
• Heat the oil over medium heat in a large nonstick frying pan or wide, heavy saucepan and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until the onion begins to soften, about 3 minutes, and add the rice and garlic. Cook, stirring, until the grains of rice are separate and beginning to crackle, about 3 minutes.
• Stir in the wine and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly. The wine should bubble, but not too quickly. You want some of the flavor to cook into the rice before it evaporates. When the wine has just about evaporated, stir in a ladleful or two of the simmering stock (about 1/2 cup), enough to just cover the rice. The stock should bubble slowly (adjust heat accordingly). Cook, stirring often, until it is just about absorbed. Add another ladleful or two of the stock and continue to cook in this fashion, not too fast and not too slowly, stirring often and adding more stock when the rice is almost dry, for 10 minutes.
• Stir in the greens and the diced beets, and continue adding more stock, enough to barely cover the rice, and stirring often, for another 10 to 15 minutes. Taste a bit of the rice. Is it cooked through? It should taste chewy but not hard in the middle. Definitely not soft like steamed rice. If it is still hard in the middle, you need to continue adding stock and stirring for another 5 minutes or so. Now is the time to ascertain if there is enough salt. Add if necessary.
• When the rice is cooked through, add a generous amount of freshly ground pepper, and stir in another half cup of stock, the Parmesan and the parsley. Remove from the heat. The rice should be creamy; if it isn't, add a little more stock. Stir once, taste and adjust seasonings, and serve.

Reduce heat to medium; cook and stir until broth is absorbed. Add remaining broth, 1/2 cup at a time, cooking and stirring until broth is absorbed after each addition. Stir in beets with last addition of broth. Cook until barley is tender but firm to the bite and risotto is creamy, 25-30 minutes., Remove from heat.
