Risotto with salmon and broccoli. A salmon risotto made with cauliflower rice and broccoli rice is a healthier and grain free dish. Cauliflower and broccoli are blitzed in a food processor for the rice and cooked with stock and Parmesan cheese. I have a cauliflower rice with broccoli risotto which we both love. One lunch time I was defrosting some salmon for the Chief Taster. Heat the olive oil and butter in a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat.
Check that the salmon is cooked through and the buckwheat is tender, but still has a bit of bite.
Drain and add to the buckwheat, along with the dill, lemon zest and yogurt.
Cut the broccoli into small bits.

Sometimes I get bored with broccoli — but then I use it in a risotto, and it's like a completely new vegetable. The diced stems retain a nice texture that contrasts with the tender flowers.
