Instructions
To make Risotto
- Heat 2 tablespoon of olive oil in a large sauté pan and over medium heat. Add onion and cook stirring occasionally for 5 minutes.
- Add Arborio rice, stirring to coat with oil and cooking until edges of kernels are translucent, about 2 minutes.
- Pour in wine and stir until it is fully absorbed.
- Add 1 ½ cup of broth to the rice, stir, reduce the heat to a medium and cook until liquid is absorbed. Continue adding vegetable broth 1 cup at a time and stirring from time to time until rice is fully cooked and mixture is creamy. In this recipe you might need to use 7 to 8 cups of broth to achieve that creamy consistency.
- Remove from the heat, stir in salt, pepper, butter and Parmesan cheese.
- Add Puttanesca Sauce to Risotto and toss until the sauce coats the rice. Sprinkle with parsley and serve!
To make Puttanesca Sauce
- Heat anchovy oil in a medium sauce pan and over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté for one minute.
- Stir in anchovies, olives, capers and tomato puree*. (See the note 1)
- Simmer the sauce until it slightly thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
- I love serving this Risotto with vegetables salads or casseroles, like my Quick Baked Zucchini with Mozzarella or Creamy Cauliflower Salad.
Notes
- Note 1
- If you're using fresh tomatoes, you need to peel them first by dropping in a boiling water. After 1 minute, scoop them out with a spoon and transfer to a cold water. Once chilled, you'll be able to easily remove the skin.
- Then, give them a rough chop and puree in a blender or food processor.
- If you're using canned diced tomatoes, puree them in a blender or food processor as well.
