You will need the following ingredients, about 25 minutes of dedicated cooking, and a hungry belly :)
1 qt. stock (veggie or chicken)
1 cup arborrio rice
1 small onion
1 clove garlic (chopped is fine...adjust to taste)
olive or grapeseed oil
*In a medium pot, bring stock up to a boil. Add salt and pepper. Reduce to simmer.
*In a saute pan with deep sides, heat oil and sweat minced onion.
*Add in rice and stir to coat with oil, toasting the rice a bit. This opens the rice and helps build that creaminess plus adds a light, nutty flavor.
* Turn heat to medium. Slowly add a ladle of stock, constantly stirring until it's almost absorbed completely. Continue this process until the stock is gone. DO NOT STOP STIRRING!! Remove from heat.
At this point, you can add parmesan cheese and any sauteed veggies, chicken, salmon, whatever you like. The combinations are endless.
Very frugal, impressive meal. Serves 2 with big portions. This is naturally gluten free. If you hold off on the cheese, it is GFCF :)
