Ingredients

  • 800 g white asparagus
  • 3 shallots
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 160 g Arborio rice
  • 800 ml vegetable broth (instant)
  • 200 ml dry white wine
  • 600 g salmon trout fillet (4 fillets; skinless)
  • Salt
  • Pepper (freshly ground)
  • juice of one lemon
  • 4 tsp breadcrumbs
  • 80 g Butter
  • 80 g freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • herbs for garnish

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Wash, peel, trim the ends of the asparagus and cook in boiling salted water for about 15 minutes until just tender. Remove, shock in cold water and drain.

  2. 2.

    Peel and chop the shallots. Heat oil in a pot, sauté the shallots until translucent. Add the rice and stir for 1-2 minutes. Stir in one-quarter of the broth and wine. Cook the risotto over low heat for about 25 minutes until al dente, gradually adding the remaining broth and wine.

  3. 3.

    Meanwhile slice the fish fillets into thin pieces, lightly season with salt and pepper, place them in a baking dish, drizzle with 3 tbsp lemon juice and sprinkle with breadcrumbs. Dot half the butter on top. Cut the asparagus into bite-sized pieces. Five minutes before the end of cooking, stir in the remaining butter and Parmesan into the risotto, season with about 2 tbsp lemon juice, salt and pepper, and fold in the asparagus. Grill the fish slices under a hot oven grill on the second rack from above for 2-3 minutes. Serve the asparagus risotto with the grilled trout and garnish with herbs.
