Risotto Milanese
Mike ReidIngredients:
Serves: 4
- 2 Tbsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil, plus extra
- 1 brown onion, finely grated
- 2 cloves garlic, finely grated
- 1g saffron threads
- 400g Arborio Rice
- ½ cup dry white wine
- 1.5 Litres Vegetable stock
- 50g unsalted butter
- 125g parmesan, finely grated
Method:
- Place a heavy based pan over a medium heat and warm the oil. Add the onion and garlic, stirring continuously to avoid colouring, approximately 5-7 minutes.
- Add the saffron threads and stir through for 1-2 minutes. Add the rice to the pan and stir to coat the rice in the oil and onion mixture, approximately 2 minutes.
- Deglaze the pan with white wine and allow to simmer, stirring until alcohol has evaporated and the liquid has been mostly absorbed by the rice.
- Gradually add in the stock, one ladle at a time and allow the rice to absorb the liquid after each addition, stir through often. Repeat this process until all the stock has been used. Cook the rice for a further 5 minutes, or until it reaches a creamy consistency and the rice is cooked through. Add a little more water if further cooking is required.
- Before serving, add the butter and half of the parmesan cheese, stir through to combine well. Taste and adjust seasoning if required. Divide amongst 4 plates and garnish with extra parmesan cheese and a drizzle of olive oil.
