We can never thank the Italian people enough for inventing pizza and pasta. And you can enjoy these anytime with these easy-to-follow Italian recipes, while you take a sip of your wine! Bon Apetit!
Serves:
Ingredients
- 1 cup of Arborio rice
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup of white wine
- 4 cups of vegetable broth
- 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
-
Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until translucent.
-
Add the Arborio rice to the pan and stir well to coat the rice with the oil. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the rice becomes slightly translucent.
-
Pour in the white wine and cook until the liquid has been absorbed by the rice.
-
Gradually add the vegetable broth, one cup at a time, stirring constantly. Allow each cup of broth to be absorbed before adding the next.
-
Continue to cook the rice, stirring occasionally, until it reaches an al dente texture (around 20-25 minutes).
-
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the cheese has melted and the rice is creamy.
-
Remove from heat and let the rice rest for a few minutes before serving.
-
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
