It’s no secret that I love risotto (Exhibit A, Exhibit B). It can be a time-intensive dish, so my tendency has always been to make risotto in bulk.

But after a few delicious risotto meals recently, I realized I didn’t have enough ingredients left to make any of my favorite risotto recipes without buying more supplies. The idea of risotto for one was born.

I scoured several risotto recipes for larger groups and tweaked them to fit my ingredient supply. This risotto is deliciously simple and just the right size for one. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

• 1 tablespoon butter
• A few tablespoons chopped onion
• 1/4 cup dry white wine
• 1 1/2 cups chicken or vegetable stock
• 1/2 cup Arborio rice
• A few tablespoons grated Parmesan or Romano cheese
• Salt and pepper
• Olive oil
