SUN-DRIED TOMATO RISOTTO

Steps:

• In a small saucepan simmer the tomatoes in the water for 1 minute, drain them, reserving the liquid, and chop them. In a saucepan combine the reserved cooking liquid and the broth, bring the liquid to a simmer, and keep it at a bare simmer. In a large saucepan cook the onion and the garlic in the oil over moderately low heat, stirring, until they are softened, add the rice, stirring until each grain is coated with oil, and stir in the tomatoes. Add 1/2 cup of the simmering liquid and cook the mixture over moderate heat, stirring constantly, until the liquid is absorbed. Continue adding the liquid, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly and letting each portion be absorbed before adding the next, until the rice is tender but still al dente. (The rice should take about 17 minutes to become al dente.) Stir in the Parmesan and salt and pepper to taste and sprinkle the risotto with the parsley.

RISOTTO WITH PEAS AND SUN-DRIED TOMATOES

Steps:

• Chop the sun-dried tomatoes. Bring the chicken or vegetable broth to simmer.
• Heat the butter in a large skillet and saute the scallions until they are soft. Add the rice and saute it, stirring, until it turns opaque.
• Add the wine and let it reduce. Add one-half cup of hot chicken stock and mix it in so the rice absorbs it. As the liquid is absorbed, add more. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Continue adding liquid and stirring for about 20 minutes all told, or until the rice is al dente.
• When the rice is almost cooked, add the peas and tomatoes and stir thoroughly. The liquid should be absorbed and the rice creamy. Stir in the cheese, cover for a minute or two and then serve with extra cheese passed separately.
