Nutritional values

Wild garlic has its peak season in spring and provides lots of flavor as well as vitamins A and C, as well as calcium for healthy teeth.

If it's not wild garlic season, leeks are a great substitute!

Preparation steps

1.

Peel the shallot and cut into small dice. Heat the oil in a pot. Add diced shallots and fry over medium heat for 2 minutes. Add rice and fry for 2 minutes over medium heat.

2.

Add some wine and let it evaporate. Then add the rest of the wine and let it absorb into the rice, stirring occasionally. Continue to add broth in portions and cook the rice for 40 minutes, adding the peas to the risotto in the last 10 minutes.

3.

In the meantime clean the wild garlic, wash thoroughly and chop into small pieces. Grate the parmesan. Mix wild garlic and parmesan into the risotto, season with salt, pepper and lemon juice.

4.

Sprinkle each goat's cheese with a little honey and let it caramelize in a preheated oven at 400°F for about 5 minutes. Place goat cheese on the risotto and sprinkle with pine nuts.
