Risotto with Prosecco DOC Grana Padano PDO and lemon
Cuisine Italian

Ingredients
  

  • 320 g of rice
  • 1 bottle of Prosecco DOC
  • 1 litre of vegetable stock
  • 1 onion
  • 2 lemons
  • 50 g of butter
  • 50 g of Grana Padano PDO
  • Olive oil
  • Salt & Pepper

Instructions
 

  • Squeeze the two lemons and set aside the juice. Next, grate the rind of the lemons, taking care not to reach the pulp.
  • Chop the onion very finely and place it in a large saucepan and then add a drizzle of olive oil. Turn the heat on a low flame and fry the onion. Once browned, add the rice and toast for a couple of minutes, mixing with the oil and onion.
  • Pour a glass of Prosecco DOC into the pan and simmer until it has evaporated. Now start adding the vegetable stock (pre-mixed with warm water). The liquid stock should be added one ladle at a time. Once the rice has absorbed all the liquid, you can add the second ladle and so on until the rice is cooked. Don't forget to keep stirring.
  • Halfway through cooking the rice, add the lemon juice and another glass of Prosecco D.O.C. and continue to mix.
  • Once the rice is cooked, add the butter and Grana Padano PDO, adjust with pepper and salt according to your taste and keep mixing for a creamy consistency.
  • Your risotto is ready to plate and serve.
