Directions
Rinse and peel the shrimp; set aside. Rinse the shrimp shells, then put
them in a saucepan along with the bay leaf, celery leaves, peppercorns,
salt, saffron, and water. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 20 minutes.
Strain and reserve the stock.
In a heavy large saucepan or skillet, melt 3 tablespoons of the butter; add
the onion and garlic. Cook for about 5 minutes or until softened but not
colored. Add the rice and stir to coat all the grains with butter. Add 1/3
of the reserved stock and bring to a boil, then simmer, uncovered, until
the stock is absorbed. Stirring, gradually add more stock and the wine
until it has all been absorbed and the rice is cooked; this will take about
20 minutes.
In a separate pan, melt the remaining butter, add the shrimp, zucchini, and
mushrooms; cook for 3 or 4 minutes. Fold the mixture into the rice along
with the rice and half of the cheese. Taste and add salt, if needed.
Serve piping hot, sprinkled with the remaining cheese.
Makes 4 servings.
