FRAGRANT RISOTTO
Boil the kettle. Dilute the stock with 400ml of boiling water. Place a large pot for the risotto over a low-medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Sweat the diced Onion for 3-4 minutes until soft and translucent, shifting occasionally. Stir in the grated garlic and rice. Pour in the wine and allow to bubble. When it has evaporated, stir through a ladle of stock. Allow it to be absorbed by the rice by gently simmering, stirring regularly. Only add the next ladle of stock when the previous one has been fully absorbed. Repeat for 20-25 minutes until the rice is cooked al dente.
SEEDS & CRÈME
Place a nonstick pan (large enough to fry the basa) over a medium heat. When hot, toast the sunflower seeds for 2-4 minutes until lightly browned, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside to cool. Combine the crème fraîche and basil pesto in a bowl. Season to taste and set aside for serving.
WILT THE Kale
When the risotto is about halfway, return the pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Add in the shredded Kale and 1 tbsp of water. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until wilted. On completion, season to taste and remove from the pan. Cover to keep warm and set aside for serving.
GOLDEN BASA
Wipe down the pan if necessary and return to a medium-high heat with another drizzle of oil. Pat the basa dry with some paper towel and season. When the pan is hot, fry the basa for 2-3 minutes per side until cooked through and golden. Remove from the pan on completion.
TIE IT ALL UP
When the risotto is cooked, stir through a knob of butter, the chopped sun-dried tomatoes, and the reserved sun-dried tomato oil. Remove from the heat.
