Dairy Free Parmesan and Saffron Risotto

This is as simple as it gets – lovely dairy free risotto with just a few ingredients. In some ways it’s more an ‘ode to Violife’. Dairy and soya free cheese has revolutionised recipes for us. This is a classic risotto dish – but made with dairy free margarine and dairy free Violife Parmesan cheese.  It’s a great supper when you’re after a vegan or vegetarian option.

Dairy Free Parmesan and Saffron Risotto Allergy Mums
Ingredients
  • 1 small onion finely chopped
  • 4 tablespoons Pure Sunflower margarine
  • 1 cup grated Violife Dairy Free Parmesan
  • 2 cups Risotto Rice
  • 7 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 tsp saffron threads
  • ½ cup Marsala wine (or any strong white wine)
Directions
Step 1
Chop up the onion finely and grate your Parmesan so it’s ready to go when you need it.
Step 2
Put a good 7 cups of vegetable broth in a pot and bring to a low simmer. Crumble up the saffron threads and add them to the stock.
Step 3
Grab a large, heavy bottomed pan and add 2 tablespoons of Pure. Melt the margarine on a medium to low heat and add the onions. Cook for 5 minutes until translucent but not coloured.
Step 4
Throw in the rice – it should sizzle. Stir the rice so it doesn’t burn. You are toasting the rice at this stage and it only takes a minute or two.
Step 5
Toasting the rice
Step 6
Now add the wine – I like Marsala but really any white wine will do as long as it’s got a decent flavour. The wine will sizzle. Give it all a good stir.
Step 7
It’s time to add the stock a ladle or ½ cup at a time. The stock needs to be absorbed before you put the next ladle in. This is where the stirring comes in. I don’t care what anyone else says, I say it needs constant attention or it doesn’t cook evenly. So commit to the task at hand and stay by your risotto. It shouldn’t be boiling away madly…but simmering away nicely. If it’s too hot then the outside gets mushy before the middle of the grains of rice are cooked.
Step 8
How much stock you use depends on whether you like your risotto slightly runny, or a bit more solid. I like this risotto runny so tend to use all the stock, and sometimes a bit more! This process takes a good 25 minutes or so. The rice should be cooked nicely but still have a bit of a bit – you don’t want mush!
Step 9
When the rice is cooked stir in 1 cup of Violife Parmesan and 2 tablespoons of Pure Sunflower margarine. Adjust seasoning and serve with the block of Parmesan so folk can put some more on top if they wish.

If you fancy another idea – here is our Pea and Mint Risotto. Naturally, also dairy free.

Easy Bean Salad

Easy Bean Salad

We love Bean Salad, its just a nice change from a green salad. Packed with protein and simple to do – a lot of opening of tins involved! A simple salad that’s great with a BBQ   If you’ve got a BBQ going and want something nice on it – do try these Duck Skewers.

Duck Skewers

BBQ Duck Skewers

The weather is fine, the BBQ is out and it’s time to pop something other than a sausage on the BBQ.  Skewers are always popular – I like to cut the meat into strips rather than chunks as it cooks more evenly. Duck is amazing on a BBQ – full of flavour and quick to […]

Coconut Chicken

Coconut Chicken and Pineapple

This is a lovely meal on the BBQ or under the grill. Cooking time is pretty short, about 15 minutes but you do need to marinate them for at least 3 hours, or even prepare them the night before.  Pineapple is a good fruit for these, as it’s solid enough to take the heat from […]
