Ingredients
- 320 gms arborio rice Carnaroli or Vialone nano, 11.5 oz
- 2 tbsp spring onions green part only
- 1 ½ tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 vegetable stock or hot water, 4 cups
- lemon juice and zest from 1 1/2 lemons
- salt to taste
- 4 tbsp Parmigiano Reggiano cheese finely grated
Notes
- Do not wash the rice before cooking it. You want to keep the starch in it, as that is what makes risotto naturally creamy.
- If you are not following the Low Fodmap diet, use ½ a chopped onion instead of the green onion and add 1 tablespoon of butter with the grated Parmigiano Reggiano.
