The main secret of risotto is the right rice. The perfect rice for risotto — Arborio. Its unusual rounded form large grains, creamy taste and the highest krahmalnom ensure the success of your risotto. I chose the variety "Arborio" from "Mistral". This is the most proper Fig. Well, that is, - related products.

First of all, the rice, wash thoroughly under running water until the washed out residues of rice flour and water is clear.

In a saucepan of heated olive oil and fry for 1 minute the garlic, sliced. After this procedure, the garlic is thrown. Its purpose is flavoring the oil, not more. This is the second secret to a tasty risotto.

In a fragrant oil fry the onion and carrots. Until soft. You can even put out under the lid.

Add salt and herbs.

Add washed rice and simmer, stirring, for 2-3 minutes.

Pour into the pot liquid. Any broth or just hot water. Delicious just - chicken broth. Mix thoroughly, bring to a boil, diminish the heat to minimum and cover the saucepan with a lid. On 15 minutes.

This should be enough to let the rice fully absorb the liquid and cooked. If our Arborio moist - add a little water and cook until ready.

Now it is the turn of shrimp. Add them and another secret of our risotto - cream. The heavier, the better. They emphasize the creamy Arborio. Close lid and heat 10 minutes. During this time the liquid should be fully absorbed.

And - another secret risotto - Parmesan, so far without him in Italian cuisine! Finely grated Parmesan added to risotto...

... and stir. Serve immediately! This is the last secret of our risotto! Try! Really good?
