Cabernet Risotto

Cabernet Risotto


1. Heat the butter and olive oil together in a large saucepan over low heat.

2. When the butter is melted, add the onion and garlic, and saute until transparent, 7-8 minutes.

3. Add the rice, and stir with a wooden spoon until each grain begins to turn a milky white, about 2 minutes.

4. Add the wine, and continue to stir until it is completely absorbed by the rice.

5. Keeping the stock hot over low heat, add the stock, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring after each addition until nearly all the liquid is absorbed.

6. Continue to add stock and stir until the rice is tender but not mushy, a total of 18-20 minutes.

7. Stir in the tomatoes and cheese, taste again, and season with salt, pepper, and if you like, more cheese.

8. Serve immediately.
