Preparation
Start the risotto
- Small-dice the celery.
- In a medium pot, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high.
- Add the sausage meat and celery. Cook, breaking up the meat, 3 to 4 min., until partially cooked.
- Add the garlic and tomato paste. Cook, stirring often, 1 to 2 min., until fragrant and dark red and the sausage meat* is cooked through.
Continue the risotto
- To the pot, add the rice and cook, stirring constantly, 1 to 2 min., until the rice is slightly toasted.
- Add the demi-glace, 4 cups water (double for 4 portions), the spices and S&P; bring to a boil.
- Reduce the heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, 13 to 16 min., until partially cooked.
- Add the kale and cook stirring occasionally, 4 to 8 min., until most of the liquid has been absorbed and the rice is al dente.
Finish the risotto
- To the pot, add the peas and 2 tbsp butter (double for 4 portions). Simmer, 1 to 2 min., until combined.
- If the sauce seems dry, gradually add ¼ cup water until you achieve your desired consistency.
Plate your dish
- Divide the risotto between your bowls. Bon appétit!
