Ingredients
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 yellow onion diced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced or pressed
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper ground
- 4 cups water
- 1 tbsp vegetable stock paste
- 1 1/2 cups pastina pasta
- 1/4 cup white wine
- zest lemon of one
- juice lemon half
- 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese shredded
- 1/2-1 tsp white truffle minced in oil
- 2 tbsp basil minced, fresh
- 1 tbsp rosemary minced fresh
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1/2 cup candied pecans Sante Nuts brand
Instructions
- Warm 4 cups of water or vegetable stock over low heat in a medium-sized pot. Keep warm on the stove until ready to use.
- To start making the risotto, add 2 tbsp olive oil to a large frying pan. Add onions and garlic, cook until softened, 3-4 minutes. Stir in salt and pepper.
- Add pastina noodles and stir to coat, about a minute. Stir in vegetable stock paste until combined, about a minute.
- Deglaze with rose wine (if using) or go right to adding hot water or broth. Start with 1 cup water or broth, and bring to a gentle simmer. Simmer and stir until most of the broth is absorbed. Keep adding 1 cup at a time, letting the pastina absorb it slowly, each time, stirring often until all of the water or broth has been added. The pastina should be al dente and creamy.
- Then stir in lemon zest, lemon juice, parmesan cheese, truffle sauce, fresh basil, fresh rosemary and butter to finish the dish. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt, pepper or truffle sauce if needed.
- To serve, top the risotto with candied pecans & drizzle of olive oil.
Notes
- If you want a looser risotto, add more water or vegetable stock.
- If you’d like to add a protein, top this risotto with chicken, salmon or shrimp, or try your favourite plant based protein.
- Sauteed mushrooms would also be a lovely topper to this dish.
