Organic Barley Orzotto
Orzotto - a different take on risotto
Orzotto is an italian dish similar to risotto where pearled barley is used instead of rice. Orzotti are a speciality of the Friuli Venezia Giulia region of northeastern Italy. This orzotto recipe features an aromatic herb mix along with the rich flavour of goat cheese.
Ingredients
200 g of boiled barley
1-2 shallots
50 g of olive oil
5 g of thyme
5 g of garlic
70 g of dry white wine
100 g of veggie soup stock
20 g of mashed herbs (mix of parsley, dill, chervil and coriander)
50 g of fresh goat cheese
Romaine lettuce for decorating
Step 1
Rinse the barley thoroughly. Place a pot of water on the Electrolux induction hob and set it to Powerboost mode (maximum heat). When just in a few minutes the water starts to boil reduce the heat to 12.
Step 2
Place all the greens in the boiling water and blanch for about 30 seconds. Then take out the greens and put into the ice-cold water. Spread the greens on a towel and drain.
Step 3
Put the greens and a little water into the Electrolux MasterPiece blender bowl and puree at a maximum speed until smooth. Pour olive oil in a deep frying pan or a saucepan. Place it on the Electrolux induction hob and set it to the heating level 12-13. Add a few twigs of thyme and garlic. Once the garlic is slightly golden, remove it and the thyme and add the shallots instead.
