ELABORATION:
For the minced meat:
- 300 grams of minced beef
- 1.5 liters of water
- The hard parts of the asparagus
- The leaves that are pulled from two artichokes
- A carrot
- The green part of a leek
- ½ onion
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- Salt
- 2 medium onions
- 2 tomatoes
- 1 clove garlic
- 320 g of round rice
- 2 artichokes
- 8 or 12 green asparagus (depending on size)
- 1.1 liters of the broth
- Olive oil
- Salt
- Pepper
- parsley (optional)
ELABORATION:
- Remove the outer leaves of the artichokes and break the stem of the asparagus by hand, as low as possible but without forcing it. Reserve the artichokes and the tender part of the asparagus while we prepare the broth with the leaves of the former and the toughest part of the stem of the latter.
- Brown the chopped carrots, onion and green leek in a pot, it doesn't have to be very fine. When they are colored and smell good, add the asparagus stalks and artichoke leaves, cover with the water and bring to a boil over low heat for 45 minutes. Blend well with the blender and pass through a chinoise or a very clean cotton cloth.
- Peel and chop the onions, and fry them in a saucepan over medium heat with a jet of oil, until they have completely dehydrated and are light brown in color (it is advisable to watch and stir the frying often).
- Add the finely chopped garlic when the onions are almost ready so it doesn't burn. Add the grated tomato and cook over medium heat until the sauce is brown and very dry (if it is not very dry, the remaining water will end up in the rice and soften it).
- Add the artichokes, cleaned and cut into 12 pieces lengthwise (with the stem). Brown them for about three minutes. Add the asparagus cut into three or four pieces, depending on the size, and stir for another three minutes.
- Remove the tips of the asparagus. Add the rice and stir it a few times until it is semi-transparent -pearl-like-, distribute well over the casserole and add 1.1 l of the broth, seasoning with salt if necessary at that very moment.
- Let cook without stirring for about 15 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley to taste and serve. If you are not on a diet, you can put a little aioli on top just before turning it off and let it rest for three minutes
- Fry the minced meat seasoned to taste and add to the rice dish
- Accompany with a salad and so delicious!!
