Risotto Alla Milanese


Ingredients:
2 tablespoons butter
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 cups uncooked long grain rice
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon crushed saffron
1 can (14 to 14-1/2 ounces) ready-to-serve beef broth
4-1/2 to 5 cups water
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons butter
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 cups uncooked long grain rice
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon crushed saffron
1 can (13-3/4 to 14-1/2 ounces) ready-to-serve beef broth
4-1/2 to 5 cups water
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
Instructions:
1. Melt butter in large skillet over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir 2 minutes or until tender. Add rice; cook and stir 2 to 3 minutes. Add wine, salt and saffron; cook and stir until all liquid is absorbed.
2. Gradually add broth and water, 1/2 cup at a time, and continue cooking 55 minutes or until all liquid is absorbed and rice is tender, but still firm, stirring frequently. Risotto should be creamy, not dry or runny. Remove from heat; stir in cheese and parsley.
