Truffle Risotto
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 cup Arborio rice
- 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons truffle oil
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 shallot, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, heat the chicken or vegetable broth over low heat. Keep it warm but not boiling.
- In a separate large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped shallot and minced garlic, and sauté until softened, about 2 minutes.
- Add the Arborio rice to the saucepan and stir to coat the grains with the butter, shallot, and garlic mixture. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the rice becomes translucent around the edges.
- Pour in the white wine and stir constantly until the liquid is absorbed by the rice.
- Ladle in 1 cup of the warm broth into the rice and stir constantly until the liquid is absorbed. Repeat this process, adding 1 cup of broth at a time and stirring constantly, until the rice is creamy and al dente, about 20-25 minutes.
- Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and truffle oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Remove the risotto from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes. The texture should be creamy and slightly runny.
- Divide the risotto among serving plates, garnish with fresh parsley, and drizzle with a little extra truffle oil if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
