Equipment

  • 1 large pan or skillet

Ingredients
 
 

  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small onion minced
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • cup Japanese rice or any short grain rice, unwashed
  • ½ cup dry white wine
  • 5 cups vegetable broth or increase up to 6 cups
  • 1 tablespoon vegan butter
  • 2 teaspoons tamari soy sauce or more
  • 4 ounces smoked salmon cut into bite size pieces if necessary

Toppings (optional)

  • Thinly sliced scallions
  • Roasted white sesame
  • Ground black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Heat up the vegetable broth in a saucepan.
  • Heat up the olive oil in a large pan. Cook the onion and garlic together until lightly browned.
  • Add in the rice and cook for 1 minute to coat the grains with oil.
  • Pour in the wine and scrape off any burned bits at the bottom (deglaze).
  • Add one cup of heated broth to the rice and stir frequently but not constantly. Once the liquid is absorbed, add one more cup of broth. Keep adding broth one cup at a time until the rice is al dente soft, slightly firm but not mushy. This will take around 20 minutes.
  • Mix in the vegan butter and tamari soy sauce.
  • Add in the smoked salmon and mix into the risotto gently.
  • Optional: garnish with scallions, white sesame and ground black pepper.

Notes

For any leftovers, store in an airtight container and keep refrigerated for up to 3 days. Microwave to heat up, or cook on the stovetop with a bit of broth to loosen.
