Ingredients
- 2 cups rice
- 4 tbsp Horio extra virgin olive oil
- 1 onion
- 1 carrot
- 1 red pepper
- 1 green pepper
- handful of parsley chopped
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 medium size zucchini
- 1 tuna pack
Directions
Dice the vegetables into small cubes.
After we've finished chopping the vegetables, we heat a pan and sauté them until they develop a nice color.
Stir in the rice and sauté for 2-3 minutes.
Gradually pour the hot water into the risotto, stirring continuously, until the rice reaches a firm, yet tender, texture known as "al dente."
Allow the rice to absorb all the water before adding more.
Add the salt, spices, and butter. Stir until the risotto thickens, then remove from heat.
Finally, select your favorite serving dish for the risotto, and add the tuna over the top. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of freshness and color.
