Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 cups low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
3 medium red or golden beets (about 1 pound)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
3 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
1 1/4 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper, divided
1 1/2 cups arborio or carnaroli rice
4 teaspoons white wine or Champagne vinegar, divided, plus more
3 tablespoons heavy cream
4 tablespoons coarsely chopped parsley, divided
2 ounces fresh goat cheese, crumbled (optional)

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.

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.

Tips:

  • Select the right beets: Choose beets that are small to medium in size, as they tend to have a sweeter flavor and fewer woody fibers.
  • Roast the beets: Roasting the beets brings out their natural sweetness and intensifies their flavor. Be sure to wrap them in foil to prevent them from drying out.
  • Use a good quality risotto rice: Arborio or Carnaroli rice are good choices for risotto, as they hold their shape well and have a creamy texture.
  • Toast the rice: Toasting the rice before adding the liquid helps to develop its flavor and prevent it from becoming mushy.
  • Add the liquid gradually: Stir in the liquid slowly, allowing the rice to absorb it before adding more. This will help to create a creamy risotto.
  • Don't overcook the risotto: Risotto should be cooked until it is al dente, with a slight bite to it. Overcooked risotto will be mushy and unpleasant.
  • Stir in the finishing touches: Once the risotto is cooked, stir in the mustard greens, goat cheese, and lemon zest. These ingredients will add flavor and texture to the dish.

Conclusion:

Red beet risotto with mustard greens and goat cheese is a delicious and colorful dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The earthy flavor of the beets pairs well with the sharp tang of the mustard greens and the creamy richness of the goat cheese. This risotto is sure to impress your guests, and it's a great way to enjoy the fresh flavors of spring.
