Indian Risotto Recipe

 

 Its time to have to serve Indian rice in completely new taste and different style.

Ingredients:-

1 bunch fresh palak (spinach)

1 cup mint leaves

1 cup fresh coriander leaves

1 cup kasuri methi

2 green chilies

6 cloves garlic

1 inch ginger

1 small onion

1/2 tsp honey

2 tbsp Fresh cream

1/2 cup milk

1/2 tsp turmeric powder

1/2 tsp coriander powder

1/4 tsp garam masala powder

1/2 tsp fresh lemon juice

Salt to taste

1 tbsp clarified butter

How to make Indian Risotto:-

·        Wash the palak and boil in its own water for few minutes.

·        Put the boiled palak into the blender and add mint leaves, coriander leaves and kasuri methi.

·        Blend together to make a smooth puree. Keep aside.

·        Put the onion, ginger, garlic and green chilies in a chopper.

·        Chop finely and keep aside.

·        If chopper is not available then you can chop the onion and green chilies with your hands and make the paste of ginger and garlic.

·        Wash the rice in normal running water, boil by adding little bit of salt.

·        Drain the boiled rice through the sieve and keep aside.

·        Melt 1 tbsp of butter in a pan and add chopped onions along with ginger, garlic and green chilies.

·        Sauté for few seconds and then add prepared green puree.

·        Sauté on low flame and stir in milk, honey, salt and spices.

·        Cover the pan and leave to cook for about 6 minutes until it thickens.

·        Finally stir in lemon juice and fresh cream.

·        Now heat 1/2 tsp oil / butter in a saucepan and add cumin seeds and curry leaves.

·        Allow the seeds to splutter and pour directly over the boiled rice.

·        Mix very well.

·        Mix the prepared rice into the green risotto gravy and cook on medium flame for 2-3 more minutes until rice blends very well with green puree.

·        Take a round shaped bowl or cutter, fill with the prepared risotto and flip upside down on a serving plate.

·        Garnish the delicious Indian risotto with some freshly chopped coriander, place some fried potatoes on the top and sprinkle little bit of chaat masala.

·        Serve immediately to enjoy.
