📝 Ingredients (for 4 people)

  • 250 g of fresh raspberries (plus a handful for decoration)
  • 320 g of risotto rice (e.g. Carnaroli or Arborio)
  • 1 pat of butter
  • Vegetable broth to taste
  • 1 tablespoon of cooking cream
  • Grated Grana to taste
  • Salt and pepper to taste

👩‍🍳 Step-by-step preparation

1. Prepare the raspberries and toast the rice:

  • In a pan, melt a small pat of butter.
  • Add the raspberries and sauté in the hot butter for 1-2 minutes.
  • Combine the rice directly in the pan and toast it with the raspberries for a couple of minutes, stirring.

2. Cook the risotto:

  • Continue cooking in the classic way: add one ladle of hot broth at a time, allowing it to absorb before adding another.
  • Continue for about 15-20 minutes, stirring often.
  • During cooking, if the raspberries do not break down, gently mash them with a fork to obtain a homogeneous and brightly colored risotto.

3. Final creaminess:

  • Once cooking is complete, turn off the heat.
  • Add a tablespoon of cooking cream, a handful of grated Grana, salt and pepper to taste.
  • Mix well to cream the risotto until it becomes creamy and fragrant.

4. Serve:

  • Immediately plate the risotto and decorate each portion with some whole raspberries set aside.
