Roasted Chestnut Risotto

by Ooooby Crew

Ingredients

4 or 5 C broth, either chicken or vegetable and preferably your own homemade
2 T olive oil
1 medium onion, diced
1 C Arborio or Carnaroli rice
1 C roasted chestnuts
1 T fresh thyme
1 C parmesan

Directions

In a saucepan, gently heat broth and keep warm. In a separate saucepan, heat olive oil and add onion and cook until getting soft. Add rice and stir around to coat with oil. After about a half a minute begin to add broth, one ladle-full at a time. Stir completely and then let simmer until that liquid is nearly absorbed. Continue adding broth by the ladle-full until rice is cooked. Stir in the chestnuts and thyme. Remove pan from heat and gently stir in parmesan cheese. Put a lid on and allow to rest a few minutes before serving.

We've been getting our veg box for a while now and the quality of it is so superior to anything you get anywhere else. It's led us to massively reduce our meat intake and organic farming and ethical and sustainable practices are crucial.
