The risotto was something of a success with a delicious combination of savoury Arborio rice and caramelised onions. |
That cooks for four minutes and then we add 2 cups of Arborio rice. |
We also went to the picturesque local shops and stocked up on tinned olive oil, dried porcini mushrooms, Lavazza coffee, Arborio rice and bottles of wine and Amaretto. |
Add 2 cups of rice. Arborio rice or paella rice is best, but any rice will work. |
Unless the frankenfood scientists have already developed a strain of rice that grows on trees, I'm pretty sure she meant arborio rice, the kind used to make risotto. |
I think the idea is to be consistent...and gentle with the arborio. |
