What must a risotto have to conquer your heart? A particular ingredient? Must it be “al dente”? Or prepared with a slowly cooked broth?
I don’t know about you, but I have my answer: it must be super – extra creamy!
Sure, otherwise it’s just rice, not a real risotto!

Add ground meat and peas and cook for 5-10 minutes.
STEP 2: COOK THE RICE
Add the rice and toast it.
Add the white wine, and stir continually over medium heat until it is absorbed.
Add a ladle of broth at a time and cook over medium heat (it must boil)
for 15-20 minutes, occasionally adding a ladle of broth (or whenever the rice tends to dry) and vegetable buoillon cube.
Before turning the fire off taste the risotto to check the flavor and if necessary add salt.
