One of my favourite rice dishes. Lovely with seafood.
Ingredients:
4 cups vegetable stock
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small onion, diced
12 ounces arborio rice
3/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
3 tablespoons white wine
1 lemon, juice and zest of
1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint
Directions:
1. Bring the stock to a boil in a medium saucepan, cover, and keep warm over low heat.
2. Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter and 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large saucepan.
3. Sauté the onion over medium high heat, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 5 minutes.
4. (If you mean translucent- it's 7 minutes.) Add the rice to the onion mixture and sauté, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes.
5. Reduce the heat to medium low, add 1 cup of the hot stock and stir frequently until absorbed.
6. Continue adding 1 cup of stock at a time, stirring, and waiting for it to be absorbed before adding the next measure.
7. This will take 25-30 minutes .
8. Remove from heat and stir in 1/3 of the Parmesan, the white wine, lemon juice and zest, mint, and the remaining tablespoon of both butter and oil.
9. Cover and allow to stand for 3 minutes.
10. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese and serve.
