Roasted Carrot And Onion Risotto Food

CARROT RISOTTO

Steps:

• Risotto: Strain the stock to yield 6 cups (add water to the stock if necessary) and place in stock pot over low heat to simmer. Finely dice the onion half; then peel and mince the garlic. In a skillet, heat olive oil to rippling, add onions and garlic, and cook until onions are translucent, 3-5 minutes. Add the rice and stir to toast. Continue to move it around the pan so it doesn't stick to the bottom, about 7 minutes.
• When the rice has grown translucent from absorbing the oil, add wine and stir until it evaporates; do the same with the lemon juice. Once the pan is fairly dry, slowly ladle the simmering carrot stock into the rice in one-cup increments (rice and stock need to be same temperature). Stir until the liquid has been incorporated before adding the next cup. Don't rush it: you want to let the carrot flavor slowly develop. (This is the trick to cooking risotto: take it slow!)
• When you have two cups of stock left in the saucepan, pour the carrot juice into the stock and stir until it's incorporated. Then, add the next cup of the carrot juice/stock mixture to the rice and incorporate. When you have one cup of the mixture left, stir the diced carrots into the rice before adding the final cup of liquid.
• Finish the dish: When the rice looks creamy and there's no liquid sloshing around, add salt, butter, and half of the Pecorino. (Omit butter and Pecorino for vegan eaters.) Spoon onto a serving plate, sprinkle with the thyme and remaining Pecorino, and serve.
• Peel, trim, and roughly chop the onion and carrots, and roughly chop celery; add to stock pot. Smash garlic cloves to remove peel, then add to pot. Add water, bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook for 45 minutes to 1 hour. Strain and reserve liquid, discarding solids.

SIMPLE ROASTED CARROTS & ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425.
• Peel carrots and onions. Cut onions in quarters, leaving root ends in tact, so that they hold the quarters together. Cut carrots into 2 - 3" pieces, and if the carrots are really fat, cut them lengthwise into halvves or quarters. (You can adjust the quanitities of everything -- it's just that the program here wants specifics.).
• Put them onto a cookie sheet or jelly roll pan and drizzle with olive oil and salt and mix them with your hands so that they are lightly coated. The pan does really matter here -- if you use something with sides, they steam rather than roast.
• Roast for 15 minutes, turn and roast for 15 - 30 minutes more. At this point, they should be cooked, but they can go longer if they're not done. they should be crisp/tender (if they go longer, they get soft, which I'm starting to like, too) and have browned spots on them.

ROASTED CHICKEN WITH RISOTTO AND CARAMELIZED ONIONS

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the onions and saute for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the onions are a dark golden brown. Remove from heat, stir in the balsamic vinegar and set aside.
• Heat the remaining oil in a separate large skillet over medium heat. Stir in the rice and mix well. Let heat for about 2 minutes, then pour in the wine. Reduce heat to medium low and start pouring in the broth about 1 cup at a time. Add more broth as each cup is absorbed. Continue in this manner until all the broth is absorbed and the rice is al dente, about 20 minutes.
• Stir in the reserved onion mixture and allow to heat through. Remove from heat and stir in the butter and chicken. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and garnish each serving with fresh thyme.

OVEN-ROASTED CARROTS

• Preheat oven to 450°. Place the carrots, onions and garlic in two greased 15x10x1-in. baking pans. Drizzle with oil and vinegar. Sprinkle with the thyme, salt and pepper; gently toss to coat., Cover and bake for 20 minutes; stir. Bake, uncovered, for 10 minutes; stir again. Bake until carrots are crisp-tender, 10 minutes longer.

• Bake in the preheated oven until vegetables are soft and cooked through, turning after about 25 minutes, about 45 minutes total.

SPICED ROASTED CARROTS AND ONION

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F. In a large bowl, whisk together ras el hanout, honey, and oil. Cut carrots in half lengthwise, then again crosswise. (If there are extra-thick pieces, halve them again lengthwise, so all are about the same size.) Cut onion in half through its root, thencut each half lengthwise into thirds, making sure to keep root intact. Toss carrots and onion with oil mixture; season with salt and pepper.
• Spread vegetables in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet, cut-sides down. Roast, undisturbed, until cut sides are golden brown and vegetables are tender, 20 to 22 minutes. Let cool completely, then serve, or refrigerate in an airtight container up to 5 days. (Return to room temperature or gently rewarm before serving.)

ROAST CARROTS, TOMATOES AND ONIONS WITH THYME

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Slice the carrots into one-inch pieces. Peel the tomatoes by dropping them into boiling water, leaving them for a minute and then draining them and slipping off their skins. Cut them in half and scrape out the seeds. Cut the onions in thick slices.
• Pour the oil over the bottom of a baking dish about 9 by 13 inches and spread out the onions, tomatoes and thyme. Season with salt and pepper and stir the vegetables lightly to make sure they are coated with the oil. Bake for 30 minutes, stirring from time to time.
• Add carrots, stir to coat with oil and continue roasting for one hour.
