It is some time since I have written a recipe I am pretty sure the you are all wanting one aren't you know , having brought some Ostrich to cook the other day I needed a simple dish to go with it. The Ostrich was not alive can you imagine that trying to get out my catflap oooh it would get stuck. A few weeks ago I went to Berlin and I must admit I got rather used to having the cooking done for me. Though I now back with a vengeance , ps If you do cook Ostrich then flash fry it and it will only take about 2 minutes in each side , it cooks really quickly.
Ingredients
225g risotto rice
Ingredients
225g risotto rice
Red Onion chopped
1 garlic clove crushed
Half a cauliflower broken into small florets
Knob of butter add more if require
Salt and pepper as you like it.
1 pint of Chicken Stock
Method
In a large sauce pan fry the onion and add the garlic in the butter for a couple of minutes.
Next add the risotto rice make sure it is coated by the butter, stir until translucent.
Add a cupful or ladle of the chicken stock and stir well until the stock has been absorbed , next add the rest of the stock.
In the last 7 minutes add the cauliflower.
Add a further knob of butter and stir through.
Seasonings are up to you but it delightful to add a generous grinding of black pepper and a twist of the salt mill.
Give a vigorous stir and serve .
Hmm, I have never tried this, will have to give it ago. We love cauli!
ReplyDeleteRisotto is a favourite of mine, lovely warming food and I love it in the autumn with pumpkin and sage.
ReplyDeleteCauliflower is a bit of a theme for me lately - yesterday at Slimming World someone made cauliflower cous-cous!
ReplyDeleteNow this sounds right up my street I totally admit to loving cauliflower ;) x
ReplyDeleteThis sounds delicious and a great accompaniment to the Ostrich. Hope you can join in with #SeasonalKitchen with this
ReplyDeleteOooo another way to cook cauliflowers - looks yummy
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of cauliflower risotto - very clever. It is lovely being cooked for when you're on holiday!
ReplyDeleteI do love a nice risotto and I like cauliflower too, but I'm not so sure about the ostrich. I guess you don't really need that though.
ReplyDeleteSounds lovely, I adore cauliflower!
