Cook Time: 30 minutes
Ingredients:
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons minced shallots
- 1 medium sweet potato, cut in small dice, about 8 ounces or 2 cups
- 1/3 cup chopped pecans
- 2 to 3 cups vegetable broth
- 1 cup Arborio rice (about 6 to 7 ounces)
- salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 1/2 cup fresh grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped green onion tops or fresh parsley
Preparation:
In a medium saucepan, melt butter; add minced shallot and pecans; cook until shallot is tender. Add rice and cook, stirring, until well blended. Stir in sweet potato.
Stir about 3/4 cup of the hot broth into the rice mixture. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until liquid is absorbed. Continue adding liquid, about 1/4 to 1/3 cup at a time, stirring frequently, until the rice and sweet potato are tender (not overly soft). The texture should be creamy a little loose. This will take about 25 minutes and about 2 to 3 cups of broth.
Stir in Parmesan cheese and green onion or parsley, then taste and add salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Serves 3 to 4.
