Sweet Onion Risotto Cake
with Butternut Squash and Shitake Mushroom
Preparation
- On the stove top place the water or stock in a saucepot and bring to a simmer. Season the water with salt and pepper.
- In a separate saucepot melt the butter
over medium heat and add the onion.
Sauté until light golden brown.
- Add the aborio rice and stir for thirty
seconds. Add the squash and one third
of the water. Lower the heat to medium-low
and continue stirring until the rice
has absorbed the liquid.
- Add the second third of the water and repeat the process.
- Finish with the final third of the liquid and add the mushrooms. Remember to keep stirring.
- When the rice absorbs the remaining liquid add the parmesan.
- In a ceramic dish spread the risotto out evenly about one inch high. Let the risotto cool at room temperature then refrigerate.
- Remove the cold risotto form the refrigerator
and make six round cakes with a round
cookie cutter. In a non-stick pan bring
the olive oil up to a medium heat and
add the risotto cakes. Sauté
the cakes until golden brown on each
side and reserve.
