LEEK RISOTTO RECIPE
Leek Risotto is a very simple-to-make Italian recipe, light and nutritious. The leeks, browned in butter, are extremely fragrant and give the risotto a very delicate flavor. Leek Risotto is a dish of humble and poor origins. But nowadays people think of it as refined for its delicacy and lightness. Leek Risotto is an ancient dish of the peasant Italian tradition. It has become a classic dish, especially of Piedmontese cuisine. In fact, Piedmont region produces the best Italian qualities of leek and rice.

Steps:
- Make a vegetable stock and set aside. Then clean the leeks. Remove the dark green part of the leek and the last part with the roots. Then remove even the hardest outer leaf, which you can add to the stock for more flavor.
- Cut the leeks into rings. In a large saucepan, pour 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil and half a dose of butter. Turn on the heat and when the butter has melted, add the rings of leeks, a pinch of salt and a ladle of vegetable stock. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add the rice and mix well. Then add the white wine and let the it evaporate.
- add hot vegetable stock, very little at a time stirring constantly. Let it cook for about 15 minutes. At the end turn off the heat and add Parmigiano cheese and the remaining butter. Mix well for a creamy leek risotto. If you like, add some freshly ground black pepper. Serve leek risotto immediately hot with a little more grated Parmigiano cheese to taste.

LEEK AND SCALLION RISOTTO
This one comes from Lidia Matticchio Bastianich, who demonstrated it on "Victory Garden" (the PBS show). I didn't see the show, but ate this last night at my friend Marcia's house -- it was UNBELIEVABLE. This was fabulous! So good that four hours later, when my husband and I were falling asleep, I heard him murmur, "That was really great risotto ..." Marcia says it makes a lot and it freezes beautifully -- just add a bit of chicken broth and pop it in the microwave to warm it up. This will absolutely become a staple at our house, calories or no!

Steps:
- Thoroughly clean the leeks and cut into half-rounds, about 1/8" wide. Use as much of the green as you can.
- Thoroughly wash scallions and cut into 1/2" pieces, also using as much of the green as you can.
- In a heavy pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add onions and shallots and cook, stirring often, until they are tender (about 8 minutes).
- Add the rice and stir to coat with oil; cook until rice begins to become translucent (just a minute or two).
- Pour in the wine and stir until evaporated.
- Add leeks and 1/2 cup of hot stock, as well as 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring constantly, until all the stock has been absorbed.
- Continue to add the hot stock in small batches -- a quarter cup or so, just to moisten rice -- until broth has been absorbed. (My friend Marcia's husband says this takes him an hour, but it looked more like 30 minutes to me, as we watched him cook.) Keep the heat at a temperature where rice simmers very gently.
- In the last five minutes, add the scallions.
- When all the stock has been absorbed, remove the rice from the heat. Add the butter and stir until it is completely melted. Add the gorgonzola cheese and stir until thoroughly incorporated. Add half of the grated parmesan reggiano, and adjust salt and pepper as (or if) necessary.
- Serve while warm, with remaining grated parmesan.

Steps:
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large, heavy bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat. Pour in the rice, and stir until the rice is coated in oil and has started to toast, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and stir in one-third of the boiling vegetable broth; continue stirring until incorporated. Repeat this process twice more, stirring constantly. Incorporating the broth should take 15 to 20 minutes in all.
- While you are cooking the rice, heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in a pan. Stir in the garlic, leeks, red chili, shrimp, and scallops. Cook until the seafood is just beginning to turn color. Add the red bell pepper and spinach; cook until the seafood is opaque. Combine with the rice, and season to taste with pepper.

Steps:
- Heat the stock in a medium saucepan over medium heat; lower the heat so the stock stays warm without simmering.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the shallot, season with salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 1 minute. Add the rice, season with salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the rice is coated and fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the wine and cook, stirring constantly, until completely absorbed, about 1 minute.
- Ladle about 1/4 cup hot stock into the risotto and cook, stirring, until absorbed. Continue to add the stock in additions of about 1/4 cup, gradually working up to 1/2-cup additions, stirring until absorbed before adding more. Continue adding broth and stirring until the rice is tender and creamy, about 18 minutes. (You may have leftover stock, or may need to add a little water if you run out; this will depend on your rice.)
- While the rice cooks, trim the woody end of the asparagus off and cut the stalks into 3/4-inch pieces.
- Once the rice is cooked, remove the pan from the heat and stir in the asparagus, remaining 2 tablespoons butter, the Parmesan, lemon juice and lemon zest, stirring until the risotto is creamy. Add a splash of water to loosen, if necessary. Season with salt and pepper if needed.
- Heat a medium nonstick skillet over high heat and add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Season the scallops with salt and pepper and add them to the skillet. Cook, undisturbed, until browned and crisp on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the scallops and continue to cook until just cooked through, about 1 more minute. Transfer to a plate.
- Divide the risotto between bowls and top with the scallops; sprinkle with chives and more Parmesan.
LEEK RISOTTO
Creamy italian rice dish that is served as a main course. This is a reduced fat version. I have reduced the amount of oil and cheese used, but you can also sprinkle parmesan over the top once it's served. We make this at least one a week. It's wonderful!

Steps:
- In a large saucepan, bring the broth to a boil; lower the heat and keep at a scant simmer.
- Meanwhile, in a large saute pan (see note) heat 4 tablespoons of the butter and cook the white parts of the scallions, stirring until they're soft, about 2 minutes. Add the rice, stirring with a wooden spoon, until all the grains are coated with butter. Add the wine and cook the mixture at a low simmer, stirring until all the wine is absorbed, about 3 to 4 minutes.
- Add 1/2 cup of the simmering broth and continue to simmer the mixture, stirring until the broth is absorbed. Keep adding broth by the 1/2 cup and repeating as above until the rice is creamy and al dente The rice may not absorb all the broth, so it's best to taste the mixture before adding the last 1/2 cup.
- Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, the green scallion tops, cheese and white pepper.
