Basic Risotto Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Prepare all veggies -- dice onion, cook any veggie add-ins that aren't already.
  • In a large pot or dutch oven, melt the butter. Saute the onion in butter until soft.
  • In a saucepan, heat vegetable broth to a low simmer. Keep hot.
  • Add rice to the pot. Toss until coated with butter and cook for 1-2 minutes to slightly toast.
  • Add white wine, stir well until mostly absorbed by rice.
  • Add hot vegetable broth about a cup at a time, stirring frequently until each addition is mostly absorbed. As the risotto cooks, it will take longer and longer to absorb each cup of broth.
  • Begin tasting risotto after the first few cups of broth. Rice is ready when it is tender and doesn't stick to your teeth when you chew.
  • Add cooked vegetables and stir to combine. Add a handful (more or less, to your taste) of grated parmesan cheese for flavor and serve immediately.
