Creamy Parmesan and Mascarpone Risotto

Recipe by Philippe Etchebest

A classic Italian risotto, quick and economical, prepared in a single pot. Arborio rice becomes creamy thanks to the gradual addition of broth, a splash of white wine and a touch of mascarpone, then is lifted with parmesan and a drizzle of lime juice for an unexpected freshness. Ideal for a convivial weekday dinner.

  • Handle the knife carefully when mincing
  • The broth is very hot, use a ladle with an insulated handle
