Oxtail and pea risotto
Monday!
How about something nice to eat? late in the month? want left overs?
OK.
Melt 2 cloves of garlic and one large and one small onion in the good olive oli. Leave under a lid for a while to get transparent.
add 300 grs of risotto rice and let it get some flavor of the onion/garlic. Add some thyme and sage since it's hard to get fresh herbs in this weather. Stir!
add about 3 dl of white wine, stir softly until the alcohol smell fades off and the rice "thickens".
(Here is what I did, since I had some left over oxtail soup from before, I added some water to that and got oxtail broth).
add some (already boiling) broth, about 1 dl at a time, Stir! (that's the secret, stir stir stir).
let it reduce while stiring, and then add more broth, about 1 liter of broth (a dl at a time) would be stired and reduced in 20 minutes and that's about what it takes.
(about here I added a huge handfull of froozen peas, Salt & Pepper)
just as it's done, add a big dollop of the good butter, stir and leave to steam under a lid.
stir and then serve. Hey, No cheese!
