Baked risotto with cod by @lerutticooking
INGREDIENTS
2 tbsp olive oil
1 onion, diced
1 leek, finely chopped
5 rashers of back bacon, visible fat removed, cut into 1cm strips
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
200g chestnut mushrooms, sliced
1 tbsp tomato purée
2 tsp smoked sweet paprika
250g arborio or similar risotto rice
750ml chicken stock
6 x 150g skinless cod fillets
salt and pepper
16 cherry tomatoes, on the vine if possible
TO SERVE
bunch of parsley, roughly chopped
lemon wedges
.
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 180C (fan 160C/gas 4).
Heat half the olive oil in a large, hob-proof casserole dish or ovenproof saucepan over a medium-to-high heat. Slide in the onion, leek and sliced bacon and fry, stirring occasionally, for 4 minutes, or until the onions and leek are starting to soften. Add the chopped garlic and mushrooms and continue to stir-fry for 2 minutes.
Squeeze in the tomato purée and stir through the mixture. Add the paprika and rice and continue stir-frying for 30 seconds. Pour in the stock and bring to the boil, before clamping on a tight lid and transferring to the preheated oven. Bake the rice for 12 minutes.
While the rice is cooking, heat up half the remaining oil in a large frying pan over a high heat. Season the cod with salt and pepper and when the oil is hot, carefully lay in three fillets. Brown on both sides – you are not trying to cook the fish through here, just to brown it. Remove the browned cod to a plate and repeat the process with the remaining oil and fish.
After 12 minutes, take the risotto from the oven, remove the lid and give the rice a good stir. Lay the fish and tomatoes on top of the rice and then slide the dish back into the oven, uncovered. Roast the whole lot for 10 minutes, until the fish is perfectly cooked through and the tomatoes are softening but still holding their shape.
Remove the risotto from the oven, sprinkle with parsley and serve with the lemon wedges.
