Crab and parsley risotto

This simple dish is deliciously creamy and comforting.

Ingredients

  • 20g unsalted butter
  • 1 large shallot, finely chopped
  • 160g risotto rice
  • 250g fish stock, made from a cube
  • 1 dressed crab
  • 50g mascarpone cheese
  • 30g Parmesan, grated
  • 4 tbsp whipped cream
  • ½ lemon, juice only
  • 1 tbsp flat leaf parsley, chopped

Method

  1. Melt the butter in a saucepan and cook the shallots gently until they are soft but without any colour on them. Add the rice and stir for minute to coat with the butter. Season to taste.
  2. Add the fish stock a ladle at a time, allowing all the liquid to be absorbed by the rice before adding more. The rice is cooked when a grain of rice pressed between your thumb and index finger breaks into three pieces. If you prefer softer rice, add more stock.
  3. Add the crab meat and stir together until blended, then add the mascarpone and Parmesan, stirring until well mixed. Finally, add the cream, a good squeeze of lemon juice and the parsley.
  4. Stir everything together and season to taste. The finished risotto should have the consistency of creamy rice pudding; if not, just add a little more stock or water. Serve with a chilled glass of Morrisons Sauvignon Blanc Touraine.
