Broccoli Risotto Torte

Posted 2018-03-18 by finyfollow

This is a great stand-by when you do not have much to make for dinner, and served with a salad is a nice, all round meal which incorporated some greens in it.

Preparation Time: 15 minutes
Cooking Time: 1 hour 5 minutes
Serves: 2 as a main

Ingredients
About 200 g brocolli
½ onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed
½ red or yellow pepper, sliced
1 tbsp olive oil
25 g butter
125 g risotto rice
60 ml dry white wine
2 cups stock of choice
About 75 g Parmesan cheese, grated
2 eggs, separated
Sliced tomato and chopped parsley to garnish - optional

Method
  • Blanch the broccoli for about 2 minutes, then drain and keep aside.

  • Gently fry the onion, garlic and pepper in the oil and butter, for about 5 minutes or until soft.

  • Stir in the rice, cook for a minute, then pour in the wine.


  • Cook, stirring continuously, until the liquid is absorbed.

  • Pour in the stock and season well with salt and pepper.

  • Bring the rice to the boil and then lower the heat and simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, and taking care that it does not stick near the end.

  • Line a deep tin with baking paper, or just the base, and preheat the oven to 180°/160° fan forced.

  • Stir in the cheese, and allow the mixture to cool for about 5 minutes, and then beat in the egg yolk.

  • Add the broccoli and stir to mix.

  • Beat the egg whites until they form peaks, and then fold into the rice.

  • Put it into the prepared tin.


  • Bake for about 50 minutes to 1 hour or until it is golden brown but still slightly "wobbly" in the centre.

  • Allow the torte to cool a bit in the tin, then chill if serving cold.

  • Garnish with sliced tomato and chopped parsley, if desired, and serve.
  • I served it with my kale salad
