This is a very simple risotto-style side dish that I make in an on-off rice cooker. I use Knorr chicken broth powder if I don't have chicken stock handy. If your broth is unsalted, you will need to add salt to taste.

Time 45m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
2 carrots, diced
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 cup arborio rice (risotto-style (Arborio, Italian rice or even Calrose)
3 cups chicken stock (or vegetable stock)

Steps:

  • Put oil and butter in rice cooker pot, switch on.
  • When butter is melted, add carrots and onions. Cook until softened, 3-5 minutes.
  • Add rice, stir until it is coated with oil.
  • Add chicken stock and switch to cook.
  • Check consistency when rice cooker switches to warm. If it is too chewy, add 1/4 cup water and switch on again. This is very altitude dependent.
