Carrot Risotto
I wanted to make an easy cafe-style lunch using a blender.
Since the carrots are chopped with a food processor, the result is much finer than when chopped by hand and is more like a paste. You can eat two carrots in one meal, so no doubt you're complexion will be radiant. Recipe by Maitomono mama

Cooking Instructions
- 1
I used these ingredients.
- 2
Remove the carrot stem, roughly chop the carrot. Divide into 3 or 4 portions and mince in a food processor.
- 3
Mince the onions in the blender (use the same blender). You can also use a regular food processor.
- 4
Heat some olive oil in a frying pan and stir-fry the carrot and onions.
- 5
When soft, add the uncooked white rice (unwashed) and continue cooking for about 2 minutes.
- 6
Combine the water with the soup stock granules. Pour into the pan and stir.
- 7
Add the canned tuna. Mix together. Simmer over a medium to high heat for 8 minutes. Do not cover the pan.
- 8
Continue simmering for 5 minutes over a low to medium heat. (Altogether, simmer for 13 to 15 minutes after adding the rice.)
- 9
Our family likes it dry and the rice not too hard. Transfer onto a serving dish and enjoy.
- 10
Season with some salt and black pepper if you like. Because the chicken stock and tuna give it a nice flavor, we only use some black pepper.

Basic Risotto Basic Risotto
Risotto is one of those basic dishes that is great to have in your back pocket for quick dinners, and using up leftovers. Once you have the basic technique mastered, you can make it as fancy or as casual as you like.TIPS: The basic ratio for risotto is 1 part uncooked rice to 3.5 parts liquid. This will include your stock, wine and any additional liquid you are using. Keep an additional 0.5 parts liquid in reserve, as various rices absorb slightly different amounts of liquid.Most risotto recipes call for wine and stock as the liquid, but you can also make "stock" on the fly with dried mushrooms and aromatics such as carrots and celery, added at the beginning of the process with the onions.A little fat added at the end in the form of butter and/or a bit of grated hard cheese will really help give a creamy finish to your risotto.

Spinach Risotto Spinach Risotto
Don't let the simple title fool you, the flavor (and the color) is great and a bit unusual for a Risotto. And strangely enough (but luckily), it doesn't require constant stirring as is the case with other Risottos!PS: Don't let the step about preparing the spinach scare you, it is simple and takes maybe 5 minutes.

Saffron Risotto Saffron Risotto
For years we would watch so many TV shows showing risotto and always wanted to make it home. So at first we ventured off to many Italian restaurants to try to find the perfect one. It took about 10 stops before we found a great tasting one, we just wanted a bit more vibrant color so we added some saffron.We took a classic risotto and just made a few adjustments to give it a little flair. Some of the additions are saffron and a touch of cayenne pepper in the broth.

In northern Italy, risotto has a creamy consistency, enjoyed with a spoon or fork. I use this dish as an accompaniment to Italian cooked meats and chicken. Prepare this while the main course is slowly cooking, since it deserves your full attention.
