Spaghetti Carbonara Recipe


Definitely my favorite pasta dish. This Spaghetti Carbonara Recipe is full of flavour -the best version I ever made was with alsace lardon. Heavily smoked it releases its flavour wonderfully. This version uses pancetta and a little chilli to give it a bit of a lift. If you like pasta recipes try this Lobster Ravioli Recipe

Prawn and Samphire Risotto Recipe

Prawn and Samphire Risotto


Prawn and Samphire Risotto Recipe


A taste of the sea in this recipe. In this Prawn and Samphire Risotto Recipe the Samphire lifts this dish wonderfully contrasting perfectly the creaminess of the risotto with the fresh saltiness of the Samphire. If you ever see it buy it when you can. it is only available from May to August and not a lot of it gets exported from the county of Norfolk where it grown along the marshy coast.

For this Prawn and Samphire Risotto Recipe – You will need:

Ingredients (Serves 4/6)

  • 750gm large cooked prawns in their shells
  • 100gm washed and trimmed Samphire
  • 100gm butter
  • 3 banana shallots finely chopped
  • 1250ml l litre fish stock
  • 125ml white wine
  • v2 garlic cloves crushed
  • 250gm of Arborio Rice
  • 30gm freshly grated parmesan
  • 50ml single cream
  • 1 Star Anise
  • 8 spring onions chopped

Method

  1. Peel the Prawns
  2. Add 25gm of the butter to a pan and heat gently
  3. Add the shallots, garlic, star anise and prawn shells and cook very gently for about ten minutes
  4. Add the stock and bring to the boil
  5. Simmer for 20 minutes
  6. Strain the stock
  7. Melt the 50gm remaining butter in a large pan and cook gently for two minutes
  8. Add the rice and stir until all the grains are coated
  9. Pour in the wine and stir until it has all been absorbed
  10. Add a ladle of stock and continue stirring until the stock has been absorbed
  11. Repeat until all the stock is used up
  12. Add the prawns and samphire and stir for one minute
  13. Finish with the remaining butter, cream and parmesan
  14. Serve immediately

The risotto should be slightly runny not stodgy. If you lift the serving bowl up at an angle the risotto should move slowly across the plate. The above picture shows  a heaped risotto.  If your risotto looks like this it will probably be too heavy. A heaped risotto makes for better photographs but not better eating.

Enjoy!

Honey and Cumin Roasted Baby Carrots

Honey and Cumin Roasted Baby Carrots


Honey and Cumin Roasted Baby Carrots Recipe


A wonderful Honey and Cumin Roasted Baby Carrots Recipe. A recipe ideal for a traditional roast dinner or a more sophisticated dish such as baked red mullet or sea bream. The natural sweetness of the roasted carrot enhanced by a brushing of honey and spiced mildly with cumin. One important tip. Your Carrots must be fresh, if they are not you are better buying good quality freshly dug carrots and don’t fall for the leaves still being left on – if they aren’t fresh then neither are the carrots! The fresher they are the sweeter they will be! If you like Vegetarian recipes could try this with our Sardinian Artichoke Pie Recipe
