Ingredients
- 400 g of risotto rice
- 50 g of parmesan, grated
- 1 pinch of salt
- 2 tbsp of chives, chopped
- 900 ml of chicken stock
- 1 tbsp of olive oil
- 25 g of unsalted butter
- 200 g of turkey fillets, chopped or shredded
- 1 red onion, finely chopped
- 150 ml of dry white wine
- 1 pinch of black pepper
- 150 g of green beans
Method
Step 1
Place the stock in a saucepan, bring to the boil and then reduce the heat to a very gentle simmer. Heat the oil and half the butter in a large saucepan. Add the onion and cook until softened.Step 2
Stir in the rice and cook for 1-2 minutes. Add the wine and stir gently until absorbed. Now add a ladle of the hot stock and stir gently until absorbed, making sure you reach the edges and base of the pan as you stir or the rice will stick.Step 3
When you have added about half the stock stir in the turkey and then continue adding the stock, as before, until the rice is tender and the mixture looks thick and creamy. Stir in the beans with the last addition of stock. If all the stock has been used and the rice is not quite tender continue adding boiling water to achieve the right consistency.Step 4
Stir through the remaining butter, chives and half the parmesan. Cook gently for a further minute. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper and sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan to serve.
