Method
0 of 6 done- Put the vegetable stock in a small pan and keep it at a low simmer. Warm the Olive Oil and 10 g of the butter in a medium saucepan over a medium heat.
- Add the onion with a pinch of salt and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring now and then, until soft and translucent but not browned. Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
- Add the risotto rice and stir for 1 to 2 minutes until the grains look glossy around the edges. Pour in the white wine and stir until it has nearly all been absorbed.
- Add the hot stock a ladleful at a time, stirring often and waiting until each addition is mostly absorbed before adding more. Keep the risotto at a gentle simmer for about 18 to 20 minutes, until the rice is tender with a slight bite and the mixture is loose and creamy.
- Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes for the last 2 minutes of cooking so they soften slightly. Take the pan off the heat, then add the remaining butter, Parmesan, black pepper, and a little more salt if needed.
- Stir well, cover the pan, and leave the risotto to sit for 1 minute. Spoon into a warm bowl and serve straight away.
