Method

9 steps
  1. Finely chop the onion and garlic.

  2. Heat the oil in a deep pan or pot over medium heat. Add the onion and fry until translucent, about 5 minutes.

  3. Add the garlic and fry for another 1 minute until fragrant.

  4. Add the rice and stir for 1-2 minutes so that each grain is coated with oil.

  5. Gradually add hot water (approximately 750 ml, or until the rice is almost covered), one ladle at a time, stirring constantly. Add each subsequent ladle only after the previous liquid has been almost completely absorbed.

  6. Continue the process for about 18-20 minutes until the rice is al dente.

  7. Add the shrimp, cream, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring, for another 3-5 minutes until the shrimp turn pink and are cooked, and the sauce thickens.

  8. Remove from heat, add chopped herbs, and stir.

  9. Serve the risotto hot.
