- 1 brown onion, finely chopped
- 1L salt-reduced chicken stock
- 3/4 cup parmesan (finely grated)
- 1 1/2 cup arborio rice
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 1 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves

Method
Step 1 of 5
Heat stock in a medium saucepan over high heat until simmering. Remove from heat. Stand, covered, until required.
Step 2 of 5
Heat 1 tbs of the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic and stir for 3 minutes or until softened. Add rice and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes or until rice is translucent at edges. Stir in tomatoes.
Step 3 of 5
Add 1/2 cup stock to pan. Cook, stirring, until absorbed. Repeat with remaining stock, 1/2 cup at a time, until liquid has absorbed and rice is tender (about 20 minutes).
Step 4 of 5
Meanwhile, reserve some small basil leaves for garnish. Combine remaining basil and remaining oil in a blender or small food processor and process until smooth.
Step 5 of 5
Stir half the parmesan into risotto. Serve risotto topped with remaining parmesan, basil oil and reserved leaves (see tip).
