Strawberry Risotto


Do you know how to cook risotto?
Try with strawberry, delicious!!

 My ingredients for 4 persons are:

-120 grams cannarolo or vialone nano rice.
(using this rice is essential)
- 15 strawberries (more or less)
- 1 onion
- 3 tbl. sp. grated parmigiano.
- vegetable stock/broth.
- 1 tbl. sp. butter
- 3 tbl. sp. extra virgin olive oil
- salt / pepper
Simmer the onion in olive oil for 3 minutes, add the strawberries
(cut in pieces) simmer 3 more minutes, then add the rice.
Let it simmer for 2 more minutes before adding stock.
Add just enough stock to cover everything, use high flame
and stir.
After almost all the liquid has evaporated, add some more
a little bit at the time and keep stirring, for about
10/15 minutes on a lower flame. ( the outcome will depend on the stirring,
specially towards the end !)
When finished add cheese and butter, a little salt and pepper,
stir 2 more minutes and let it rest 3 more minutes, then serve
