🍲 Classic Risotto alla Milanese

580 kcal · 30 min · 4 servings

Ingredients

• 320 g Risotto rice (Arborio)
• 1000 ml Beef broth (liquid)
• 60 g Butter
• 2 Stk Onions (finely diced)
• 150 ml White wine (dry)
• 1 g Saffron threads
• 80 g Parmesan (grated)
• 10 g Salt
• 2 g Black pepper

Instructions

1. 1. Heat the beef broth in a pot and keep it warm (not boiling).
2. 2. Dissolve the saffron in 2 tablespoons of warm broth and set aside.
3. 3. Melt 30 g of butter in a large pot. Sauté the onions until translucent over medium heat, about 5 minutes.
4. 4. Add the rice and stir for 2 minutes until the grains are slightly toasted.
5. 5. Deglaze with the white wine and stir until the liquid has almost completely evaporated.
6. 6. Add the saffron broth. Stir frequently and add more warm broth gradually as soon as the liquid is absorbed.
7. 7. Check the consistency: The rice should be 'al dente' (firm to the bite) and flow creamy.
8. 8. Remove the pot from the heat. Vigorously stir in the remaining 30 g of butter and the Parmesan (this is called 'mantecare').
9. 9. Season with salt and pepper. Serve the risotto immediately.
