Ingredients

How to Make Fennel Risotto

  1. Start by cutting the leafy base of the fennel bulbs off and remove the core from the base as well by cutting a conical shape in it. Then, vertically slice the fennel into ¼ inch thick slices
  2. In a heavy-bottomed stockpot, melt butter on medium heat. Let the fennel and onions cook in the butter for 2 minutes. Add the rice in it as well and cook for an additional 2 minutes, make sure you are constantly stirring. At this point, the rice should be light toasted and then you can add 1 cup of the vegetable broth. Keep stirring until the liquid has been absorbed properly. Keep repeating the process until the broth is finished. Adding the broth in 1-cup intervals should take 15 to 20 minutes.
  3. After the liquid has been absorbed properly, you can add the heavy cream, 3 tablespoons of grated parmesan cheese and parsley. Cook it until the rice has thoroughly cooked and it turns into a creamy and thick consistency. Add black pepper and salt to taste. Divide into bowls and add the remaining cheese.
