Description

A French-inspired risotto with the ease of the slow cooker. A great vegetarian main dish.

Ingredients

  • 1 Tablespoon Butter
  • 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 3 whole Leeks, Washed And Sliced
  • 2 cloves Garlic, Finely Minced
  • 12 ounces, weight Arborio Rice
  • ⅓ cups White Wine
  • 5 cups Stock, Ideally Half Mushroom And Half Chicken
  • 1 sprig Tarragon
  • Salt And Pepper, to taste

Preparation

Fry the leeks in the olive oil and the dab of butter for about 5 minutes until the start to become translucent. Add the garlic and fry for another minute. Add the rice to the frying pan and stir in. Tip in the white wine and then the stock and allow the rice to absorb the liquid. Put everything into the slow cooker pot and add the rest of the seasonings and herbs. Cook on High setting for 2 hours, checking for doneness towards the end.

Sounds good, but it wouldn’t be considered vegetarian with the chicken stock. In this case someone could use vegetable stock. My daughter is a vegetarian and has taught be well!

Great idea–love risotto but it is time cosuming. Does it turn out creamy like regular risotto?

The risotto was overcooked using the crock pot. It certainly didn’t have the same texture as when made the traditional way.
