- Begin by heating 4 cups vegetable stock and keeping it warm.
- Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter to a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the 1/2 medium onion (diced) and cook until just tender, then add the 4 cloves minced garlic. Cook 1 minute longer.
- Add 1 cup arborio rice and toss to coat, (making sure oil gets onto every grain of rice if you can).
- Add 1/4 cup dry white wine and stir until it is absorbed. (If you are not using wine, just add a little extra stock here)
- Add 1 ladle full of the stock and stir until it absorbs.
- Repeat this until you have used almost all of the stock - it should take about 17-25 minutes.
- When you add the last ladle of stock, also add the parsley, but only let the stock absorb halfway and then add your 1 cup parmesan cheese.
- Let it absorb until it is creamy and thick, but not soupy.
- Serve, adding extra parmesan if desired.
- Garnish with 3 tablespoons parsley (optional)
