INSTRUCTIONS

FOR THE RISOTTO
FOR THE FLAVOURINGS
If you are using medium scallops either slice in half for use as garnish or
dice them so that they can be incorporated into the risotto. Set aside.
To make the risotto, put the fish stock into a saucepan and bring to the
boil. Set aside. In a medium saucepan, gently saut. the shallots in 3 tbsp
of oil for about 2 minutes or until softened. Stir in the rice and cook for
a further 2 minutes to seal the rice. Stir in the wine and deglaze the pan.
Cook until the liquid has reduced to a syrupy consistency.
Meanwhile reheat the fish stock and bring to a gentle simmer. Add to the
rice one ladleful at a time, stirring well and adding more stock only when
each addition has been absorbed. Cook until just soft, usually about 10
minutes. Strain the rice through a sieve set over a bowl, reserving the
liquid for later use. Spread the rice out on a tray. When it is cool, cover
and set aside until ready to reheat and serve.
Heat a pan with little oil then saut. whole or sliced scallops for 1 minute
each side, diced scallops for no more than 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
Set aside.
When ready to serve, return the rice to the saucepan with 2 tbsp of it's
reserved cooking liquid, stirring well. Cook for about 3 minutes, adding
extra liquid if the rice looks a little thick. Quickly mix in the
mascarpone and the parmesan, stirring until light and creamy. Check the
seasoning. Mix in the the whipped cream and the fresh herbs. Check the
seasoning. If using diced scallops stir them in at this stage. If using
whole or sliced scallops use as a garnish. Serve the risotto on warmed
plates. Drizzle round a little olive oil followed by the balsamic vinegar
and serve straight away.
