Ingredients
400 g risotto rice
2 onions, finely chopped
5 cloves of garlic, finely grated
4 tbsp tomato concentrate
1 tbsp chopped tomatoes (preferably plum tomatoes)
400 ml white wine
800 mlvegetable bouillon (2 bouillon cubes)
100 ml olive oil
160 g parmesan, finely grated
1 cup fresh thyme, approx. 5-6 tbsp
thyme leaves
Salt and pepper
Grated parmesan and a little thyme for the top
Prep:
- Mix the bouillon with chopped tomatoes, – feel free to give it a spin with the stick blender to make the liquid completely smooth. This can be avoided if polpa tomatoes are used.
- Heat the oil in a pan and fry the onion and garlic over a low heat until the onions are clear.
- Add the risotto rice and fry for 3-5 minutes, – stir regularly.
- Add tomato concentrate and heat through, stirring, for a few minutes.
- Pour the white wine over and let it cook into the rice, still warm, and add the thyme leaves at the same time.
- Pour the bouillon over the rice several times, – let the liquid boil before adding more. Continue until all is used and the rice is al dente, – approx. 20 min.
- Stir in the Parmesan and season with salt and pepper. The risotto should be slightly runny and creamy in consistency, so add a little more water if it seems too firm.
- Serve immediately with a little parmesan and fresh thyme on top.
