Exotic Fusion Delight: Mango Curry Risotto

Seasonal Fusion Recipe: Mango Curry Risotto

Today, I am excited to share a recipe that combines the creamy comfort of risotto with the exotic flavors of mango curry. This unique dish is perfect for a cozy night in with loved ones or a special occasion when you want to impress your guests with a creative and delicious meal.

Ingredients:

• Arborio rice (300g)
• Ripe mango, peeled and diced (1 large mango)
• Coconut milk (400ml)
• Vegetable broth (1 liter)
• Onion, finely chopped (1 medium)
• Garlic, minced (3 cloves)
• Curry powder (2 tbsp)
• Fresh cilantro, chopped (1/4 cup)
• Lime, juiced (1)
• Salt and pepper to taste

Kitchen Tools:

• Saucepan
• Wooden spoon
• Chef’s knife
• Cutting board

To begin, heat the vegetable broth in a saucepan over medium heat. In another saucepan, sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic until fragrant. Add the Arborio rice to the onion and garlic mixture, stirring constantly until the rice is coated in the oil.

Next, add the curry powder to the rice and cook for a minute to toast the spices. Slowly begin adding the warm vegetable broth, one ladleful at a time, stirring continuously until the liquid is absorbed before adding more.

Once the rice is cooked al dente, stir in the diced mango and coconut milk. Cook for a few more minutes until the mango is heated through and the risotto has a creamy consistency. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Finally, remove the risotto from the heat and stir in the fresh lime juice and chopped cilantro. Serve the mango curry risotto hot, garnished with additional cilantro leaves for a burst of freshness.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 1200 grams, with 4 servings at 300 grams each. Each serving has an estimated calorie count of 400 calories.

One clever tip for this dish is to sprinkle a pinch of toasted coconut flakes on top of each serving for an extra crunch and a hint of sweetness.

I hope you give this Mango Curry Risotto recipe a try and enjoy the unique flavors it brings to your table. Feel free to experiment with different fruits and spices to make it your own masterpiece. Happy cooking!
