Riviera Style Risotto - Braised Rice image

This recipe has been submitted for play in ZWT8 - France, from the CUISINE-FRANCE website. This risotto recipe is from the Riviera region and is also known as pilaf. Although Risotto is a traditional Italian recipe, this is a delicious French recipe for braised rice, with a combination of rice and onions. It is wonderful paired with Burgundy white wine or dry white wine as suggested by the French Wine Guide.

I made this risotto for a dinner party and it was a huge hit! Everyone loved the creamy texture and the flavorful broth. I added some sautéed shrimp to the risotto and it was even more delicious. I will definitely be making this again.

This risotto was delicious! I used carnaroli rice and it turned out perfectly creamy. The flavors were so rich and savory, and the peas added a nice pop of color and sweetness. I will definitely be making this again.
