Vine leaves risotto
Cooking Time
30 minutes
Yields
4
Ingredients
- 1 large onion;
- 200-300 g of vine leaves (or 2-3 bunches);
- 1-2 bunches of dill;
- 250 g of rice;
- 4-5 tbsp. olive oil;
- half a head of dry garlic;
- salt and pepper to taste.
Directions
- Finely chop the onion and stew it with some water and olive oil;
- Wash and cut the leaves into strips;
- Add them to the onion and continue to simmer. The more they soften, the better;
- Add 1 liter of water and bring to a boil;
- Add the rice and salt and bring to a boil;
- Reduce to moderate and leave until rice is ready;
- Finely chop the garlic and dill;
- Add the spices just before removing from the heat;
- Serve with yogurt hot or cold.
Notes
If you like experimenting, I suggest you try adding:
- Medium peeled tomato, grated or even blended, added 5-7 minutes before removing the rice from heat;
- A handful of golden raisins for a more funny taste, added along with the rice;
- Crushed walnuts on serving.
