RECIPE - Serves 2
Ingredients 🛒
1 Cup/200g Brezzo Riso Nero/Back Rice - from Dical House
200g/7oz Shrimp
1/4 Cup/60ml White Wine
2 Cups/500ml Jurgen Langbein Fish Stock - from Dical House
1 Small Onion, finely diced
3 Cloves Garlic, minced
1-2 Tbsp Squid Ink
2 Tsp Tomato Paste
2 Tbsp Pecorino Cheese
1 Tbsp Unsalted Butter
Salt & Pepper
Method:
In a large deep pan, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat and cook the shrimp for about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
To the same pan, add another tablespoon olive oil and a tablespoon butter. Saute the onion until softened then add the garlic and cook for 1 minute.
Add the rice to the pan and toast it for 2 minutes stirring continuously, then add the wine and cook until the wine is absorbed by the rice.
Add the fish stock, tomato paste and ink. Bring to boil then simmer covered for 45 minutes, until al dente.
Add the cooked shrimp, stir through, then add 1 tablespoon unsalted butter and pecorino cheese. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper and serve.
Garnish with shrimp, fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges.
I cooked the garnish shelled shrimp in a little olive oil and garlic separately just before the serving. (You can also clean the shrimp and remove the shell before cooking).
Enjoy! 😊
