Risotto is one of the youngest dishes in Italian cuisine. Reference books say that it was only prepared in the 19th century. The main ingredient is rice. But not all types of rice are suitable for risotto. Only round rice with a lot of starch. The most common and affordable is the Arborio variety.

Step 1

Prepare the risotto. Pour olive oil into a saucepan. Heat it up. Add chopped onion and cook until translucent over medium heat. Then add rice and fry without adding liquid for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Pour in white wine and leave the alcohol to evaporate for 3 minutes. Gradually start adding fish broth as the liquid evaporates. Place the shrimp in the saucepan. Simmer the risotto for about 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Add salt, add cream and stir. Leave for 2 minutes. Sprinkle with cheese and stir.
