How to make Saffron Risotto in Milanese
Risotto occupies an important place in Italian cuisine. We will prepare a saffron risotto, also called «Milanese style».
Step-by-step recipe
1. |
Minced garlic and onion passer in a frying pan in vegetable oil. As soon as the pieces become soft and transparent, add the rice. With continuous stirring, fry the rice for no more than a minute. Pour in a couple of spoons of wine (take dry white). |
2. |
We use hot broth, so warm it up in a saucepan in advance. As soon as the alcohol evaporates, add the broth 3-4 tablespoons of broth. Continuously stirring, we are waiting for the absorption of the broth. Add a few more spoons and repeat the procedure. Important — you can’t add it all at once, but only in parts! |
3. |
Once you have poured half of the broth, then sprinkle the rice with saffron. We continue to gradually add the broth. |
4. |
Together with the last portion, we send butter and grated cheese to the frying pan. Mix quickly and remove from the heat — the risotto should have a slightly liquid consistency. |
