Vegetarian risotto

17 replies

Has anyone got any good vegetarian risotto recipes? I'm bored of mushroom and need some inspiration.

We had a broad bean risotto yesterday. I liked it but dh and Ds weren't keen.

I just chuck all kinds of veg in! Anything I've got really, peppers, sweetcorn, peas, leeks, courgettes.

This one is our fave:

Courgette, pea, and mint (only a tiny bit), with feta cheese and a little lemon zest to top it off at the end.

I like asparagus, artichokes (bought in oil, add at the end) and spinach (add at the end).

Also do a mixed vege one - finely diced carrot, courgette and onion, diced red pepper, garlic, oregano, thyme, paprika - fry this up. Add rice. White wine. Cook as usual for a while. Add cream. Frozen peas. Spinach.

Two that I do are:

pea, mint, asparagus and ricotta, with a sofritta of finely minced celery, leek and carrot to start it off, cooked in some white wine

and

Butternut squash with chickpeas, red onions, red peppers and smoky paprika and garlic. You can add baby or sun dried tomatoes too if you like them, and plenty of oregano or fresh thyme or marjoram.

Butternut squash and sage is lush. I usually roast some butternut squash to put on top but also some chunks in the main rice mix while adding the stock.

Pea, onion, fake bacon.

The squash and chickpeas one sounds nice.

Thanks for all the other suggestions. There's some good ideas here.

www.easycheesyvegetarian.com/roasted-red-pepper-goats-cheese-risotto/ This is tasty and very easy.

Tomato & mascarpone is lovely too. I usually make extra and have risotto stuffed peppers another day.

This caramelised onion with ale and balsamic is epic. (I sub chard for spinach as not a fan).

LeastofLeicester · 02/04/2022 20:17

Make it up as you go along! Lots of random creations make it into our regular meal planning.

Risotto, you just need the basics: stock, white wine, lemon, black pepper and add whatever veg you fancy!

yodaforpresident · 02/04/2022 20:20

Pea, onion and sesame roasted halloumi. The tomato one above is also delicious.

Fennel with veggie parmesan equivalent and lemon zest, served topped with wild rocket
