Method

  1. 1

    Blend or finely mash the beetroot to a smooth purée.

  2. 2

    Melt the butter in a large pan and soften the onion for 6 minutes, then stir in the rice and cook for 1 minute.

  3. 3

    Pour in the white wine and let it bubble for 1 minute, then add the vegetable stock a ladleful at a time, stirring often, for about 15 minutes.

  4. 4

    Stir in the beetroot purée and continue cooking for a further 3-5 minutes until the rice is tender but still has a little bite.

  5. 5

    Remove from the heat and stir in the taleggio, cut into small pieces, until melted. Season and serve straight away.
