Ingredients

Servings: 4
  • 1 Onion
  • 2 Garlic cloves
  • 25 g Butter
  • 250 g Risotto Rice
  • 600 ml Vegetable broth
  • 200 ml dry white wine
  • 125 g Parmesan cheese
  • 200 g cooked chestnuts (chestnuts, vacuum packed)
  • 1 collar Sage
  • 7-10 Tbsp Salt
  • 7-10 Tbsp Pepper
  • 7-10 Tbsp Sugar

Directions

  1. 1

    Peel and finely dice the onion and garlic. Heat butter in a pot. Fry onion and garlic over low heat until translucent. Add rice and sauté briefly. Add broth and wine bit by bit, stirring from time to time.

  2. 2

    Always add the next portion of liquid only after the rice has absorbed the liquid. Cook for a total of 30-35 minutes. Grate the parmesan. Halve the chestnuts, fold them into the risotto 5-7 minutes before the end of the cooking time and simmer.

  3. 3

    Wash the sage, shake dry, remove leaves except for something to garnish, pluck from the stems and cut into fine strips. Mix 75 g parmesan and sage into the risotto. Season to taste with salt, pepper and a little sugar.

  4. 4

    Serve the risotto, garnish with sage and sprinkle some Parmesan cheese on each.
