We all loved the Spring Green Risotto I had made awhile ago. What I didn’t like was that there was not a lot of fibre in the dish. I had read about making risotto using barley. It sounded interesting and I always have barley around for making Haleem. So I gave it a try and it turned out great! I changed the method for this using a bouillon cube instead of stock. I found this method at Aurora Importing. Also, I didn’t have all the ingredients so made some substitutions. Either way it will turn out well.
Barley Risotto with Peas and Asparagus
Heat olive oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the shallots, garlic and leeks. Saute 5-7 minutes until tender. Add the bouillon cube and stir. Add barley and stir for 1 minute so that everything is well coated. Add 1 cup water and stir until most of it has been absorbed. Continue to add 1/2 cup water at a time, stirring until it has been absorbed before adding the next 1/2 cup of water.
