- 6 1/2 cups (about) vegetable broth shopping list
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided shopping list
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil shopping list
- 1 medium leek (white part only), sliced crosswise into thin rings shopping list
- 1 garlic clove, minced shopping list

How to make it
- Bring broth to simmer in medium saucepan. Cover; keep warm over low heat. Melt 1 tablespoon butter with oil in heavy large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add leek, and garlic. Sauté until wilted and almost tender, about 6 minutes. Add rice; stir until rice is translucent at edges but still opaque in center, about 3 minutes. Add wine; simmer until almost all liquid is absorbed, stirring often, about 1 minute. Add broth 1 cup at a time until rice is about half cooked, allowing each addition to be absorbed before adding next and stirring often, about 9 minutes. Stir in zucchini, and parsley. Continue adding broth by cupfuls and stirring until rice is almost tender, about 6 minutes longer. Cook until rice is tender but still firm to bite and mixture is creamy, about 2 minutes longer. Remove from heat. Add 3/4 cup cheese and 2 tablespoons butter. Stir until cheese and butter melt. Season with salt and pepper. Serve, passing additional cheese alongside.

I've now made this a few times and I like to add some red or orange bell pepper to this dish, just for some added colour and flavour. I add it with the leeks. Delish! :)
