Sage Parsnip Risotto
Sage Parsnip Risotto is a vegetarian side dish bursting with flavor. A creamy risotto recipe that uses mascarpone and parmesan cheese.
Ingredients:
- 4 1/2 cups vegetable or chicken stock
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 medium white onion , finely chopped
- 2 cups parsnips , peeled and coarsely grated
- 1 tablespoons fresh sage , chopped
- 1 1/4 cups arborio rice
- 1 cup white wine
- 2 tablespoons mascarpone , plus extra for garnish
- 4 tablespoons parmesan cheese , finely grated
Direction
- Bring stock to a low simmer in a saucepan. Keep it just warm and not come to a boil.
- Meanwhile, melt butter in a large, wide and shallow skillet. Add onions, parsnips and sage. Saute for 5 minutes before adding arborio rice. Continue to saute until arborio is translucent and starts to brown.
- Add white wine, cooking and stirring until it has all absorbed and evaporated. Adding the wine first will ensure that the flavor will absorb first into the rice grains.
- Add one cup of broth at a time stirring between additions. Continue to add broth until it has all absorbed. Grains will be plump and a little creamy.
- Stir in grated Parmesan cheese and mascarpone. Remove from heat and allow to rest for 5 minutes.
- If desired, garnish with additional Parmesan cheese and mascarpone cheese.
