Packed with protein-rich seafood and fresh ingredients, this seafood risotto is a comforting and satisfying dish that's ideal for a cosy dinner at home.
Ingredients
200g risotto rice
450ml fish stock
1 tbsp olive oil
2-3 cloves of garlic
120g onion, finely diced
1 small sprig fresh thyme
½ bay leaf
50ml white wine
Small pinch saffron
75g lemon curd
50g cooked prawns
50g mussels
60g scallops
40g cooked peas
1 tbsp chopped dill
25g salted butter
25g parmesan
¼ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
Instructions
1. Heat the fish stock in a pan and keep warm
2. In a heavy saucepan, add the olive oil, onion, garlic, thyme and bay leaf. Cook on a low heat for about 10 minutes, without colouring the onion, until soft and translucent
3. Add the rice to the pan and with a wooden spoon, mix the rice into the onions. Once you hear the rice crack, add the white wine followed by a ladleful of stock and then the saffron and begin to stir. Make sure the rice has fully absorbed the stock before you add another ladle. Continue adding stock until the rice is tender and cooked through
4. Beat the butter into the rice and add the prawns, mussels and lastly - the sliced scallops, peas and herbs. Stir with care, as you want to just warm the seafood and gently cook the scallops
5. Finish with some grated Parmesan and season with salt and pepper. Divide the risotto between plates or bowls and serve immediately
