Ingredients

How to make it

  • Place first four ingredients in pot and bring to a boil; making sure sugar is fully dissolved. Strain and let cool. Add mango and refrigerate for 3 hours.
  • Heat non-stick spray in a large, heavy saucepan over medium heat.
  • Add shallot and garlic and sauté for a couple of minutes until softened.
  • Add rice and cook, stirring, 2 minutes.
  • Add white wine, stir, and continue to cook until it has mostly evaporated.
  • Add about ½ cup stock; reduce heat, and cook, stirring until almost all of it has been absorbed.
  • Continue cooking, stirring, and adding stock (½ cup at a time), when previous addition has been absorbed, until rice is al dente and the risotto is creamy (usually 15 – 20 minutes).
  • Once done, remove from heat, drain mango from syrup, and stir into the risotto, along with chives, Romano cheese (if using), and sun-dried cranberries.
  • Season risotto with salt and pepper and serve immediately.

    I've made this recipe more than a few times, and it's always a hit. The nice thing about it is that you can substitute other dried fruits and it works just as well. That's the beauty of risotto. Do you ever substitute other kinds of cheese?
