A tasty tomato risotto recipe with green asparagus and onion. The risotto becomes extra full of flavour by adding raw ham and gorgonzola. This is how to turn a simple risotto into a festive dish.

Preparation method

Peel and chop the onion. Cut the asparagus into diagonal pieces. Heat the Bertolli olive oil in a pan and fry the onion and asparagus for 3 minutes on low heat. Add the risotto and fry for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. The rice must not brown!
Pour in the stock and the Bertolli pasta sauce basil and let the rice absorb the moisture and cook for about 20 minutes. Stir the risotto regularly.
Meanwhile, cut the raw ham into strips and crumble the gorgonzola. Stir the ham and gorgonzola into the risotto. If necessary, season the dish further with some salt, freshly ground black pepper and an extra dash of olive oil.
Spoon the tomato risotto into 2 preheated, deep plates and sprinkle the basil on top.
