Signing UpStep 1: What you'll need
- 2 x 500g(1 lb.) packages of bacon (I chose an applewood smoked bacon, but any type would work)
- 3 tbsp. oil
- 1 medium onion, finely diced
- 1 1/2 c. sushi rice
- 3/4 c. white wine (replace with chicken stock for a version without alcohol)
- 4 1/2 c. chicken stock
- 2 tbsp. butter
- 3/4 c. grated Parmesan cheese
This is the basic risotto recipe, but it allows for a multitude of variations. Risotto is a customizable dish so feel free to choose your own add ins. In this Instructable, I show both a classic green peas and ham risotto, with the bacon standing in for the ham, as well as an asian mushroom risotto, playing off the origin of the sushi itself. (See step 4 for ingredients)
Special tools:
- bamboo sushi rolling mat
- roasting pan with drip tray to cook the bacon (can be replaced by a cooling rack placed on a baking sheet)
- thick-bottomed cast iron pot, which cooks the risotto more evenly (not necessary - just make sure to watch for rice sticking to the bottom of the pot)
