Steps

• Prepare the Risotto
• Heat the vegetable broth in a saucepan and keep it warm on low heat.
• In a separate large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
• Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the saucepan and sauté until they become translucent.
• Add the Arborio rice to the saucepan and stir it for a couple of minutes until it becomes slightly toasted.
• Pour in the white wine and stir until it is absorbed by the rice.
• Begin adding the warm vegetable broth to the rice, one ladle at a time, stirring continuously until each ladle is absorbed before adding the next one.
• Continue this process until the rice is cooked al dente, which should take about 20 minutes.
