Cooking Time: 25 minutes
Ingredients for 4 portions:
- 400 grams of rise (preferably ‘Vialone Nano’ risotto type rice)
- 1 sachet of saffron
- 100 grams of grated Parmesan
- 120 grams of butter
- 1 onion
- 1 litre of meat broth / alternatively, 2 stock cubes dissolved in one litre of boiling water
Fry the finely-chopped onion together with 60 grams of butter. Once the onion is browned, add the rice and the hot broth a little at a time or the litre of hot water, in which the two stock cubes have been dissolved in advance. The cooking time depends on the quality of the rice but does not generally take more than 20 minutes. Towards the end, add the saffron to the rice and mix, adding the other 60 grams of butter and the grated Parmesan. Leave to rest for about one minute. Your Risotto alla Milanese is now ready to be served and enjoyed.
