Prosciutto and Green Pea Risotto Preparation
Cook green onions in butter 2 or 3 minutes or until soft in large skillet over medium heat. Add prosciutto; cook 1 to 2 minutes more. Add rice and cook 2 to 3 minutes, or until rice is lightly browned. Add wine; stir until absorbed. Increase heat to medium high; stir in 1 cup broth. Continue stirring and adding remaining broth and water, 1 cup at a time, allowing each cup to be absorbed before adding another, until rice is tender and mixture has a creamy consistency. It will take approximately 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in peas, cream, cheese, basil and pepper. Stir until mixture is creamy. Serve immediately.
