Serves:

Ingredients

1 cup Arborio rice
2 ½ cups vegetable broth
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp black pepper
2 tbsp butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 small onion, diced
Salt, to taste

Instructions

In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and diced onion, and sauté until onions are translucent.
Add the Arborio rice to the saucepan and stir to coat the grains with the butter mixture.
Stir in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
