Preparation
Cut onion into small cubes and sauté in a pot with some sesame oil, add the rice and sauté for about 2 minutes, then deglaze with white wine. Gradually pour in the stock and stir well every now and then. The cooking time depends on the type of rice. After about 20 minutes, add the garlic, bay leaf and cinnamon stick and continue to simmer. The risotto should have a nice, sloppy consistency at the end.
Before serving, place the Parmesan, basil, a little salt and olive oil in a stand mixer and blend to a pesto. Stir the pesto into the risotto and sprinkle with a little ground pepper to serve.
Preheat oven to 200 °C top/bottom heat. Cut off the ends of the asparagus, peel the white asparagus and cut diagonally into thin slices. Place the asparagus slices on baking paper, salt, sprinkle with rosemary and sage, drizzle with olive oil and tie a parcel with the baking paper. Cook in the oven for 15 minutes.
Put rapeseed oil, olive oil, hemp oil, cinnamon and cloves in a pan and heat to 60 °C. Confit the char fillets in the warm fat for 10 minutes.
To serve, scatter cornflower and red clover petals over the dish.
