Carbonara Risotto 👨‍🍳😊

 Carbonara Risotto

This carbonara risotto is a creamy and comforting recipe that combines golden bacon and Parmesan cheese for a rich and flavorful result. Ideal for a special meal.

Ingredients

½ onion

2 cloves garlic

1 tsp olive oil

150g diced bacon

200g risotto rice

100ml white wine

750ml vegetable broth

3 egg yolks

80g grated Parmesan cheese

Black pepper to taste

Oregano to taste

Preparation

Finely chop the onion and garlic cloves.

In a pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil and sauté the onion and garlic until translucent.

Add the diced bacon and cook until golden brown and crispy.

Add the risotto rice and fry for about 1 to 2 minutes, stirring constantly.

Add the white wine and let it evaporate completely, stirring the rice.

Gradually add the hot vegetable stock, one ladleful at a time, stirring constantly. Wait for the stock to be absorbed before adding more. Cook for about 18-20 minutes or until the rice is "al dente".

In a bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the grated Parmesan cheese and season with freshly ground black pepper.

Remove the risotto from the heat and incorporate the egg yolk and cheese mixture, stirring vigorously to create a creamy sauce and prevent the eggs from cooking.

Serve immediately, if desired with a little more freshly ground black pepper on top.
