This is unctuous, creamy, naughty risotto goodness at its best. Eat in small quantities and make the full recipe to enjoy risotto cakes the next day :)
For 2 portions of risotto plus about 6 risotto cakes you need:
400g risotto rice
300ml white wine
1 litre hot veggie stock
80g parmesan
50g butter
1 large onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 cup peas
salt and pepper
pinch saffron strands
Begin by sauteeing the onion and garlic in a tsp of the butter and a little oil for about 10 mins till lightly golden. Add the rice and toast for 2-3 mins. Add the wine and let it boil furiously and reduce. Place the saffron in the hot stock and add the stock once the wine has reduced (I am lazy and do it all in one go...) and reduce the heat. Cook for about 10-15 mins till the rice is al dente. Season and stir through the remaining butter and 90% of the cheese. Cover with a lid and allow to rest for 2 mins. Serve sprinkled with the extra cheese. Belissimo :)
