Instructions

1

Start the base

Sauté the onion in chili oil until soft. Add Boostcous and stir to coat and lightly toast the grains.

Build the risotto

Pour in the white wine and cook until mostly evaporated. Gradually add broth, letting it absorb before adding more, for about 8 to 10 minutes.

3

Finish the texture

Stir in parmesan, crème fraîche, and lemon zest, then season to taste.

4

Make the drizzle

Mix parsley, finely chopped chili, and chili oil, then spoon over the risotto with optional roasted tomatoes.
