Chickpea Risoni with shrimp, potatoes and courgettes

Time of preparation: n.d. | Difficulty:

Gluten Free

Ingredients for 4 people

  • 250 g Organic Risoni made with chickpeas and whole grain Carnaroli rice of Pastificio Fiorentino
  • 250 g potatoes
  • 200 g prawns, shelled
  • 4 courgettes
  • 40 ml dry white wine
  • 1 tbsp. chopped onion
  • 1 clove of garlic
  • Parsley

Preparation:
In a frying pan, quickly cook the prawns with the garlic, stirring frequently. Add the chopped parsley and deglaze with half of the wine. Add a little salt and pepper and turn off the heat. Pour some oil into a saucepan with half of the chopped onion and sauté over a low heat. Peel and wash the potatoes, cut into small cubes and add to the onion. Wash and chop the courgettes into small pieces, then add to the potatoes and pour hot water until everything is covered. Simmer the courgettes and potatoes with the lid on for about 10 minutes, until they are fully cooked, then blend. The result should be a fairly liquid cream which will be used to cook the risoni. Gently braise the remaining onion, add the risoni and deglaze with the remaining wine. Cook, adding the creamed potato and courgette a little at a time. At the end of the cooking time, after about 10 minutes, add the prawns, leaving some aside for serving. Add salt if necessary. Serve the risoni and garnish with the prawns you set aside and sprinkle with chopped parsley.
