Pepper and Gorgonzola Cheese Risotto

Ingredients for four
- 300 gm. “Veronese Nano Vialone Rice”
- 400 gm. Vegetable broth
- 1 red pepper
- 1 yellow pepper
- ½ onion
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 shallot
- 150 gm. Gorgonzola cheese
- ½ glass milk
- Nutmeg
- Salt & Pepper
- Powdered ginger
- Grated Parmesan Cheese


Preparation
Cut peppers into 3-4 mm strips removing core and seeds and all white fibres. Finely cut onion and shallot. Soften in a pan with 3 spoonfuls of olive oil and peeled garlic clove (whole). Add peppers and cook for a few minutes. Lower heat, add salt, add a few leaves of thyme and marjoram (fresh if possible) and cover until peppers are cooked in their own water (15 minutes). If peppers are too wet after cooking, cook on a high gas for a few minutes to dry them out. Turn off heat and add a pinch of powdered ginger. Bring broth to boil and add rice. In the meantime blend gorgonzola cheese with mile, a pinch of salt and a pinch of nutmeg. The cream should be slightly fluid. After 14 minutes add the rice to the pepper sauce, cover and leave on heat for a few more minutes. Remove rice from heat and cream with a knob of butter, the gorgonzola cheese cream and some grated Parmesan cheese.
