Parmesan, Parsley and Pea Risotto


Serves 4

Ingredients

  • 8 cups chicken stock
  • 3 onions peeled and chopped
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic peeled and minced
  • 2 cups arborio rice
  • 1 cup white wine
  • 1 cup frozen pea
  • 1 bunch chopped parsley
  • 1 cup grated grana padano
  • salt & pepper

Method

  1. Heat chicken stock in a saucepan.
  2. In another medium saucepan, sauté the onions with the olive oil over medium high heat until softened.
  3. Add garlic and Arborio rice and stir until the grains are well coated with oil and slightly toasted, about 3 minutes.
  4. Add wine.
  5. Stir until the wine has been absorbed by the rice.
  6. Begin adding the heated stock, one ladle-full at a time, allowing it to be absorbed by the rice, before adding more.

    I made risotto for the very first time this past New Year's Eve. It was a success!! Thumbs up... My husband loved it as did our guests. I substituted vegetable broth for the chicken broth. Really, I couldn't believe how simple it was to make, except for the use of muscle power necessary for the constant stirring. I made use of my friend's arm. I will definitely make this dish again.

    This is so simple and yet so good! Approx one third of these quantities did a starter for 4. Also I found this when searching for pea and asparagus risotto and it adapts very easily - yummy!
