Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons of a plant-based spread like Earth Balance®
- 3 basil leaves, finely minced
- 2 bunches of freshly chopped chives
- Approximately 6 cups of vegetable broth, with the option to add more if necessary
- 1 diced onion
- 1 diced tomato
- 3 Yukon gold potatoes, cubed
- 2 tablespoons of garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons of onion powder
- A tablespoon each of cayenne pepper, ground cumin, and paprika
- Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to your preference
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 1 can (16 ounces) of chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 2 cups of Arborio rice
Step 1
In a pot set over medium heat, melt the margarine until it sizzles gently. Stir in the aromatic basil and chives, allowing their scents to bloom for about 1 to 2 minutes. Meanwhile, in another saucepan, gently warm the vegetable stock to maintain its temperature while cooking.
Step 2
Next, infuse the chive mixture with a medley of flavors by sautéing onion, tomato, potatoes, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Let the ingredients mingle and soften for approximately 6 minutes. Introduce garlic and chickpeas into the mix, cooking until the garlic's aroma fills the air, which should take about 1 to 2 minutes. Toss in the rice, ensuring it is thoroughly coated and slightly toasted for 2 to 3 minutes.
Step 3
Gradually ladle the warm vegetable stock, one cup at a time, into the rice mixture. Allow each cup to be completely absorbed before incorporating the next, stirring continuously. Repeat this process until the rice reaches a delightful tenderness, which should take around 20 minutes of attentive cooking.
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Embrace the beauty of glass jars for storing your flavorful vegan broth. Their transparency allows you to easily see the rich colors and ingredients that make up the base of your risotto.
- 2. Utilize eco-friendly reusable silicone bags to store your assortment of fresh vegetables. Not only are they great for the environment, but they also keep your veggies crisp and ready to be added to your risotto creation.
