Let's find out together how to prepare this dish step by step.

Ingredients

320 g Rice
200 g Radicchio
100 g Speck
200 ml Dry white wine
50 g White onions
20 g Parmigiano Reggiano
2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
1 pinch Black pepper
1 l Vegetable broth
20 g Butter

Preparation

Take the radicchio, wash and dry it thoroughly and cut it into thin strips, finely chop the onion. In a pot with high edges pour 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, fry the onion lightly and add the radicchio and speck cut into strips. Stir and cook over low heat until the speck is lightly toasted. Add the rice and let it toast 2 minutes with the ingredients, stirring often to prevent it from sticking to the bottom. Pour the white wine, raise the heat slightly and let it evaporate while stirring. When the wine has almost completely evaporated, add a ladle of broth, stir and let it be absorbed. Continue like this until the rice has softened and is al dente, stir often. Turn off the heat, add a pinch of black pepper, grated cheese and butter. Mix everything and let stir for 5 minutes in the closed pot with the lid. Remove the lid and serve your Risotto with radicchio and speck still hot.
