Ingredients
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 3/4 cup Arborio rice*
- 2 cups chicken or vegetable broth**
- 6-8 large tail-on raw prawns (peeled or unpeeled is fine)
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
Notes
- * arborio rice is specific to make risotto. Regular long grain or short grain rices won't provide the same texture nor release the same amount of starch to make the texture we expect from risotto.
- ** this makes for a bit of a saucy risotto if served immediately. If it's not the rice will absorb the broth and some water or additional broth might be needed to loosen the rice up upon serving.
- *** see post above for suggested topping variations.
