Risotto with Turnips and Taleggio Recipe

 

Ingredients

 

Serve 4

  • 1 small onion, finely chopped

  • 7 oz/200 g turnips, peeled and finely chopped

  • 2 tbsp butter

  • 1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil

  • 1 1/2 cups/300 g Italian risotto rice

  • 4 tbsp dry white wine

  • 3 cups/750 ml Vegetable Stock (refer recipe)

  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

  1. Sauté the onion and turnip in the butter and oil in a large frying pan for 10 minutes, or until softened.
