Celery Risotto alla Waldorf
Adaptions to the original recipe: Prepare any store-bought risotto Fold in a little celery root pureé(vegetable stock and diced celery root cooked until tender, then blended smooth with a little butter added) at the end of cooking would be great. Then omit the more difficult things to make like the distilled apple juice.
Amaranth "Risotto" With Mushrooms
No offense to traditional risotto lovers, but risotto made with amaranth is so much easier because it doesn't require 20 minutes of near-constant stirring. Just leave your amaranth to bubble slowly on the back of the stove, while you sauté our mushrooms for the buttery topping.
Dried porcini mushrooms bump up the woodsy flavor of the topping, while their soaking liquid becomes a deep, mushroomy stock in which to cook the amaranth. This risotto is ideal for Meatless Mondays and will please all your vegan friends to boot, but if you are craving some cheese, 1/4 to 1/3 cup of Parmesan stirred into the risotto at the end will give it that extra boost that only Parmesan can deliver. Or keep it vegan and pass a bowl of grated cheese separately for those who want it.
