Crab, saffron and clotted cream risotto

Method

1. Put the stock and saffron in a large pan, bring to the boil, then keep hot over a low heat. Put the white crabmeat in a medium bowl, then stir in the lemon juice and a little seasoning. Cover.
2. Heat the oil and butter in a large pan. Add the shallots and stir over a medium heat for 5-6 minutes until soft but not browned. Add the rice and stir to coat. Add the wine and simmer gently, stirring, until absorbed by the rice. Add a ladleful of the hot stock and stir until absorbed before adding another. Continue like this for 20-25 minutes, stirring constantly, until the rice is creamy and tender but still has bite. (You may not need to use all the stock.) Remove from the heat.
3. Stir the basil into the white meat. Stir all the brown meat into the risotto with the cream and cheese. Stir in half the white mixture, then heat through for a minute. Spoon into warmed dishes. Pile the remaining white crabmeat on top.
