Created by Guinness Storehouse Head Chef of Visitor Catering, Oran Colhoun, to be recreated and enjoyed at home.
Ingredients;
- 500 g. cooked risotto rice
- 500 g. cooked prawn meat
- 250 g. cooked salmon
- 2 shallots
- 100 g. capers
- 3 spring onions
- 2 padron peppers or green chillies
- Zest and juice of 2 limes
- Zest and juice of 2 lemons
- 50 g. flat leaf parsley
- 50 g. dill
- 3 cloves of garlic
- 2 bay leaves
- 50 g. thyme
- 1 litre of stock, (fish, chicken or vegetable will work)
Method;
- Add the oil, diced shallots, garlic, bay leaf, and thyme to a pan and sweat off without colouring.
- Add the rice and stir until all the grains are coated in oil.
- Quickly add the white wine so the rice does not stick to the pot, turn the heat down to med-low and gradually add the stock, a cupful every 5 mins. The rice will soak up the liquid and double in size.
- Once the process is finished check if the rice is soft to eat. Then leave to cool.
- To cook the prawns and salmon, simply boil or steam and allow to cool.
- Once cool, add the finely chopped dill, parsley, chillies, spring onion, capers, lemon and lime. Season with salt and pepper.
- Mix all ingredients together.
- Once combined, take some mix in your hand (about 40 grams – you can weigh each one to get them the exact same size) and roll into a ball.
- Set out a small bowl of flour, a small bowl of 3 eggs whisked with some milk, and a small bowl of breadcrumbs.
- Roll the balls in the flour and gently roll around your hand to shake off any excess flour, then coat it in the egg and then in the breadcrumbs.
- Repeat until all are covered in breadcrumbs.
- To finish, deep fry in oil or colour in a frying pan with oil.
- Serve with some chilli and lime mayonnaise and a light salad.
