Ingredients

For 4 people

Carnaroli Rice 320g

Vegetable stock cubes 2

Water 750ml

Smoked Salmon 200g

Shallot 1

White wine 30ml

Olive oil 4 spoons

Butter 40g

Salt A sprinkle

Parsley A sprinkle

Method

1. In a pan, add some oil and a chopped-up split in half shallot and let it cook/fry slightly for a few minutes.

2. Meanwhile, boil up the water in another pan, add the stock cubes and keep it warm. This is the broth we need to add to the rice to cook.

3. Cut the salmon in small pieces and add them to the pan with the oil. Let them cook for 5/10 minutes.

4. Now add the rice to the pan with the oil and stir with a wooden spoon. We call this “toasting the rice”.

5. After a couple minutes, add the wine and put the flame high, to let the wine evaporate.

6. Lower the flame and remove the pieces of shallot.

7. The rice should take about 15-20 minutes to cook. Regularly add some spoons of broth when needed during the cooking when the rice looks dry, and taste to know it is done. Make sure it has dried properly before you turn the pan off. When the risotto is almost cooked, add a generous sprinkle of parsley and a bit of salt, and taste it to make sure you have added enough condiments.

8. When you have turned off the pan, add the butter. Stir with a spoon and cover for a minute. Your risotto is done!
