Cook Time

Cooking the risotto takes approximately 30 minutes.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup black rice
  • 3 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1 garlic clove, minced

  • Large saucepan
  • Wooden spoon
  • Ladle

Method

  1. Heat the vegetable broth in a large saucepan over medium heat until it simmers.
  2. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until softened.
  3. Add the black rice to the onion and garlic mixture and stir for 1-2 minutes until the rice is coated in the oil.
