Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh tomatoes, halved and seeded
- Drizzle of olive oil
- Salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 4 medium portobello mushrooms, stemmed and cleaned
- 1 pound fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced 1/2-inch thick
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup chopped onions
- 6 cups water
- 1 teaspoon chopped garlic
- 1 pound Arborio rice
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
- 3 tablespoons chopped green onions (scallions), green parts only
Directions
Preheat the grill to 400 degrees. In a mixing bowl, toss the tomatoes with the olive oil, salt and pepper. Place on the grill and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Remove from the grill and set aside. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Place the portobello mushroom on a parchment - lined baking sheet, cavity up. Drizzle both sides of the mushrooms with the olive oil. Season both sides with salt and pepper. Fan a quarter of the cheese over each cavity of the mushroom. Place in the oven and cook until the mushrooms are tender and the cheese is bubbly, about 10 minutes. Heat the olive oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the onions. Season with salt and pepper. Saute until the onions are slightly soft, about 3 minutes. Add the water and garlic. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce the heat to medium, and simmer for about 6 minutes. Add the rice and simmer, stirring constantly until the mixture is creamy and bubbly, about 18 minutes. Stir in the butter, cream, cheese, and green onions. Simmer for about 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat and stir in the tomatoes. To serve, slice each portobello into quarters. Spoon the risotto into each serving dish. Lay 2 slices of the portobello on top of the risotto. Garnish with parsley.

My first time making an Emeril recepy! From reading the ingridients it was obious that it will have no taste, so I added chicken stock and wine in order to get some flavour in the rise. Replace the water with chicken stock, and add about a cup of wine also.

I've never made one of Emeril's recipes before, and I found the risotto surprisingly flavorless. I tasted it a bit after it had cooked in the water for a while, and had to add more salt. I ended up also adding chicken bouillon and white wine for more flavor. The mushrooms & tomatoes were good, however, and the risotto was really easy to make so I think next time I'll just use chicken broth and white wine to add a bit more umph.

This was a fabulous meal!! The recipe was easy and it ended up perfect! I added some spinach to the end product but overall I will make this a part of my risotto recipe staple!
