I love a good old risotto, me and this one is a corker. It need nothing more with it, except, maybe a glass of fruity red wine. Ingredients:
25 g butter |
1 small onion, finely chopped |
1 large garlic clove, finely chopped |
200 g smoked streaky bacon, cut widthways into strips |
300 g risotto rice |
750 ml hot chicken stock |
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley |
150 g dolcelatte |
salt & freshly ground black pepper |
Directions:
1. Heat the butter in a saute pan and cook the onion, garlic and bacon for 5 minutes until softened and golden. Stir in the rice and cook for 1 minute.
2. Gradually stir in the stock, cooking for about 20 minutes until the grains are tender and all the liquid has been absorbed. Stir in the parsley and season with a tiny pinch of salt and some black pepper.
3. Roughly dice the cheese and stir into the risotto. Quickly divide the risotto into 4 bowl, before the cheese has completely melted, and finish with a good grind of black pepper.
