Sun-dried Cranberry Mango Risotto Recipe


Sun-dried Cranberry Mango Risotto Recipe
I ran across this recipe some time ago. I can't remember where, but I know it's from the Waring House restaurant in Canada. The combination of sun-dried fruit, mango, and risotto is irresistible. I make this fairly often and it's always a hit. Obviou... More

Ingredients
  • ¾ cup water
  • ½ cup sugar
  • ¼ cup rice wine vinegar
  • 1 star anise
  • 1 mango, peeled, pitted, and diced
  • 4 cups hot vegetable or chicken stock
  • 1 shallot, finely chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 cup Arborio rice
  • ½ cup Riesling
  • 1 tbsp chives, finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp grated Romano cheese (optional)
  • 2 tbsp sun-dried cranberries

Directions
  1. Place water, sugar, vinegar, and star anise in a saucepan and bring to a boil; making sure the sugar is fully dissolved.
  2. Cook at medium heat until it reduces slightly.
  3. Strain and let cool.
  4. Add mango and refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
  5. In a large sauté pan over medium heat, sauté shallot and garlic for a couple of minutes until softened.
  6. Add rice and cook, stirring, 2 minutes, until the rice becomes translucent.
  7. Add white wine, stir, and continue to cook until the liquid has reduced to about three or four tablespoons.
  8. Add about ½ cup stock; reduce heat, and cook, stirring until almost all of it has been absorbed.
  9. Continue cooking, stirring, and adding stock (½ cup at a time), when previous addition has been absorbed, until rice is al dente and the risotto is creamy (about 15–20 minutes).
  10. When the rice is done, remove it from the heat.
  11. Drain the mango and add it to the rice, along with the chives, the Romano cheese (if using), and the sun-dried cranberries.
  12. Season risotto with salt and pepper and serve immediately.

Two things -

1. You gotta add this recipe to my company's website. It's perfect. (www.nutsonline.com)

2. If you like sun dried cranberries you're not going to believe the fruit we sell. Okay, I'm biased, I work here, but seriously, our cranberries taste like cranberries, not the sugared garbage you buy at the grocery store. Ours are tart and plump and slightly puckered - totally perfect in texture and tangy explosive flavor. When I have a bag of these I can barely keep them out of my mouth. Seriously.

Hi Dond! Yes, this one is from the Waring House Inn (P.E.I.), and I make this one too. Never thought about trying marscapone...yep, that would be VERY rich! Great post!


Looks great will be trying tomorrow thanks


Love this, and will be making soon! Thanks for sharing.


This sounds wonderful! I love risotto of all kinds and the addition of the mango and cranberries sounds incredible. Thank you for a great post!
