2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil | |
30g butter | |
1 white onion, finely diced | |
500g risotto rice | |
1 cup white wine | |
2 litres vegetable stock | |
100g pecorino or parmesan cheese, finely grated | |
1 tablespoon cracked black pepper | |
100g mozzarella, cut into small cubes | |
flour, for coating | |
2 eggs, lightly beaten | |
3 cups fine breadcrumbs | |
neutral oil (we used peanut), for frying | |
zest of one lemon, to serve | |
FOR THE ONION KETCHUP | |
2 red onions, quartered | |
2 brown onions, quartered | |
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil | |
2 sprigs rosemary | |
2 cloves garlic | |
1 teaspoon smoked paprika | |
2 tablespoons malt vinegar | |
1 tablespoon raw sugar | |
1 tablespoon tamari |
Instructions
1. | Heat the olive oil and butter in a large pan over a medium heat. |
2. | Add the onion and fry until soft, then add the risotto rice and cook until slightly toasted. |
3. | Add the wine and stir until evaporated. |
4. | Gradually add the stock to the rice using a ladle or cup, stirring continuously and giving time between additions until the rice is al dente and all the liquid absorbed – about 20 minutes. |
5. | Once the rice is al dente, remove from the heat and stir in the pecorino and black pepper. |
6. | Leave to cool for an hour. |
7. | Meanwhile, to make the onion ketchup, place the onions in a large roasting dish with the olive oil, rosemary and garlic. |
8. | Season and toss to combine, then bake for 25-30 minutes at 170°C fan bake until the onions are soft. |
9. | Remove from the oven, discard the rosemary and leave to cool for a few minutes, then whizz with a stick blender or food processor with the paprika, vinegar, sugar and tamari. |
10. | Blend until smooth. You may need to add a teaspoon of hot water to loosen the mixture, and depending on the sweetness of your onions, you might like to add a bit more vinegar or tamari at this point. |
11. | Strain through a sieve and set aside. |
12. | Once the rice is cool enough to handle, shape into elongated balls, pressing a piece of mozzarella into the centre. |
13. | Place on a tray lined with baking paper. |
14. | Put the flour, egg and breadcrumbs in separate bowls. |
15. | Dip the rice balls in the flour, then the beaten egg and then into the breadcrumb mix, patting them on if necessary. |
16. | Working in batches of 3 or 4, fry the supplì for 2 minutes, then lift out to rest for 30 seconds, before returning to the oil for another 30-40 seconds. |
17. | Drain on a paper towel, sprinkle with lemon zest and season with sea salt and cracked pepper. |
18. | Serve hot with the onion ketchup. |
