Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2 servings)

  • Firefly Squid 200g
  • Rice 160g
  • Butter 60g
  • Onion 2 tbsp
  • Bamboo Shoots 100g
  • Arugula (handful)
  • Garlic 1/2 tsp

Seasonings

  • Dry White Wine 50-60cc
  • Broth 1L
  • Olive Oil (to taste)
  • Salt (to taste)

Steps

  1. Remove the eyes, beaks, and cartilage from the firefly squid.
  2. Slice the bamboo shoots to a medium thickness, not too thin.
  3. Prepare the arugula. (Pro Tip: Leafy vegetables with a slight bitterness like Mizuna or Garland Chrysanthemum also pair well for color.)
  4. Melt butter in a frying pan and lightly sauté the minced onion.
  5. Once fragrant, add the uncooked rice and sauté briefly.
  6. Add the dry white wine and cook until the alcohol evaporates.
  7. When the alcohol has evaporated, add a generous amount of warmed broth, stir once, and cook for a while.
  8. In a separate pan, heat olive oil and roast the sliced bamboo shoots until browned.
  9. Lightly sprinkle salt on both sides of the bamboo shoots once browned.
  10. Add more oil, and sauté the minced garlic on the side of the pan. (Pro Tip: Garlic burns easily, so remove from heat and cook with residual heat to prevent burning.)
  11. Once the garlic is fragrant, add the cleaned firefly squid and stir-fry with the garlic. (Pro Tip: This removes any fishy smell from the firefly squid and enhances its aroma.)
  12. Once the firefly squid and bamboo shoots are partially cooked, add them to the risotto.
  13. While adding broth, gently crush the firefly squid to release the flavor of their innards into the sauce.
  14. Add salt for seasoning and simmer for another 5-6 minutes.
  15. When the risotto reaches a slightly al dente texture (rice grains still have a slight bite), add olive oil and a small amount of butter.
  16. Add the arugula, turn off the heat, and stir to combine with the residual heat.
