Auntie Jill's Risotto
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 14 cup onion, finely chopped
- 14 cup carrot, finely chopped
- 1 cup arborio or vialone nano rice (I used Unico brand "Italian Rice")
- 6 cups chicken broth (or more)
- 14 cup dry white wine
- 12 cup reduced-fat parmesan cheese
- fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
- Keep broth in a saucepan over low-medium heat.
- On another burner, heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat and saute onion and carrot for about 3 minutes.
- Add rice and stir.
- Pour in 2 cups of chicken broth and stir.
- And stir.
- And stir!
- You should never stop stirring for more than a minute at a time.
- When you are stirring and you notice that the rice doesn't cover the bottom of the pot right away, it is time to add another cup of hot broth.
- Keep repeating this procedure; taste the rice after about 30 minutes and see if the "crunch" is gone.
- The rice should be tender and the consistency of the dish should be creamy.
- I found that I used the full amount of broth by the time it was at the right consistency.
- You may need more.
- When you are happy with the consistency, stir in wine.
- Remove from heat and stir in Parmesan.
