Tomato And Capsicum Risotto Food

ROAST TOMATO RISOTTO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7 and line a baking tray with greaseproof paper. Arrange the tomatoes on the tray in an even layer, cut-side up, and season with a pinch of salt. Roast for 25 minutes until soft and jammy.
• Meanwhile, heat the oil in a deep frying pan, add the onion and garlic and cook gently for 5 minutes until soft. Stir in the rice and tomato purée and cook for 2 minutes, then pour in a ladleful of the stock. Stir until the stock has been absorbed, then add another ladleful and continue to stir. Keep adding the stock a ladleful at a time, stirring constantly, until the rice has absorbed all of the stock; it should be just cooked through but retain a bit of bite.
• Remove the pan from the heat and beat in the butter and half of the cheese. Fold in the roast cherry tomatoes, then spoon into warm bowls. Top with the remaining cheese, scatter over the basil leaves and serve.

TOMATO RISOTTO

Steps:

• Put 3 tablespoons olive oil in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat, then add the onion, and season generously with salt. Add pepper to taste, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
• Add the rice and cook the onions, stirring, until the onions are barely brown, about 2 minutes. Add red-pepper flakes, garlic, white wine and diced tomatoes, and cook until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes more.
• Add 2 cups boiling water and adjust the heat to a brisk simmer. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes, stirring well with a wooden spoon every minute or so.
• When the liquid is absorbed, add remaining 1 cup water and continue to cook for another 5 minutes, until the rice is cooked, but the grains are still firm. Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding another splash of water if necessary to loosen the mixture. Turn off the heat, stir in the pecorino and 2 more tablespoons olive oil.
• Transfer to a low, wide serving bowl. Surround the rice with tomato slices and season them with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with parsley and basil. Pass more grated cheese at the table.
