Tomato Anchovy Risotto With Crispy Crumbs Recipes

TOMATO AND ANCHOVY PASTA RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 4 of the chopped anchovy filets and cook for 1 minute, until they begin to melt.
• Add the panko bread crumbs and cook for 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until golden brown. Transfer the bread crumbs to a medium bowl and let cool to room temperature. Once cooled, toss with the Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.
• Heat ¼ cup (60 ml) of olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the remaining 6 anchovies and cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until the anchovies begin to melt into the oil.
• Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook for 30 seconds, until fragrant.
• Add the tomatoes and stir to coat in the oil. Season with 1 teaspoon of salt and cook for 5 minutes, or until the tomatoes just begin to soften.
• Add the white wine and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 5 minutes, or until the sauce is reduced by half.
• Add cooked pasta and reserved cooking water to the pot with the tomatoes and stir to combine. Cook for 1 minute, until the pasta is well coated and saucy. Drizzle with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and season with salt. Toss to coat.
• Serve the pasta topped with the anchovy bread crumbs and lemon zest
• Enjoy!

TOMATO & ANCHOVY RISOTTO WITH CRISPY CRUMBS

Steps:

• Heat half the oil from the anchovies in a saucepan. Add the anchovy fillets and onion and cook for 5 mins to soften. Add the garlic and cook for 1 min more. Tip in the rice, stir to coat in the oil, then cook for 2 mins until the grains turn translucent.
• Add the stock, a ladle at a time, making sure the liquid is absorbed before you add the next and stirring continuously while cooking. Once you've added half the stock, tip in the tomatoes.
• Continue cooking and adding the stock until the rice is cooked but still has a little bite - the risotto should be oozy but not soupy. Season to taste, turn off the heat, put a lid on and leave for 5 mins.
• Heat the remaining anchovy oil in a frying pan, add the breadcrumbs and toss until evenly golden. Serve the risotto in bowls with the crispy crumbs, basil leaves (if you like), and shaved Parmesan scattered on top.
