Risotto Done a Different Way

All'onda translated as on the wave 


Andrea guarantee that you can have a risotto that you don't have to stir the entire time

Risotto pepe verde taleggio e rucola
Risotto with green pepper corn Taleggio cheese and rocket salad
Ingredients
Serve 4:
 
Carnaroli rice 200 gr
½ lt vegetable stock ( for a richer taste , use a fresh chicken stock )
Taleggio cheese 150 gr
Parmesan cheese 50gr
Butter 50 gr
Olive Oil 1 table spoon
Green pepper corn 1 tbl spoon
Rocket salad 1 cup
Onion 1 small
 
Method :
Preparation of risotto:
In a sauce pan , toast gently the chopped onion and then the rice with olive oil . Mix in one shot the vegetable stock calculating the double amount of the rice. 
( 1 cup rice- 2 cups stock ) .
Cover the pot and let it cook with low fire for 13 min. When ready switch off the fire and mix  taleggio cheese , green pepper corn , rocket salad  , Parmesan cheese and butter. Stir it fast and serve.

It was very creamy but the trick is the Rice it has to be Fresh, OK, so not from a store or the markets, you need to be in contact with your supplier and grower will that be a bit of a problem in Australia?? yes for rice I'm sure. Here in Italy good Chef they know where and when all the produce come from and are in constant contact with the supplier / farmer on a daily basis and do demand freshness.
Thanks for that Andrea I will look out for Fresh Rice in Aus then!!!!
