Fennel and Lemon Risotto

A Well Seasoned Recipe - Visit us in store on 64th Avenue, in Langley, BC

Pssst: Today's risotto works great with our Day 3 recipe + gift idea post: Goat Cheese Arancini with Honey Balsamic Reduction. Use your leftover risotto to make a great Arancini.

Ingredients
  • 1 large fennel bulb, base trimmed
  • 2 tbsp. butter
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
  • 2/3 cup Arborio rice
  • ¾ cup dry white wine
  • 2 ½ cups hot vegetable stock
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 3 tbsp. parmesan grated
Instructions
  1. Chop the green leafy fennel fronds and set aside. Cut off the stalk-like fennel top, remove the outer layers and finely chop both. Heat 1 tbsp. butter in a frying pan and cook the onion, garlic and chopped fennel until soft but not colored. Add the rice, stir for 1 min. Pour over most of the wine, and simmer until evaporated. Add the hot stock, one ladleful at a time, stirring between each addition until it is absorbed.
  2. Meanwhile, slice remaining fennel and fry in remaining butter until browned, add a splash of the stock and cook until tender. When the rice is cooked but still slightly al dente, stir in the lemon zest, Parmesan and taste for seasoning – adjust with salt as required. Remove from the heat and set aside, covered, for 2 minutes.
  3. Transfer risotto to a serving bowl, top with cooked fennel – sprinkle over the chopped fennel fronds and another sprinkling of parmesan cheese, serve immediately.
