I created this recipe to explore new contrasting flavors, combining the sweetness of fruit with savory elements. I love experimenting in the kitchen, and since the weather is still a bit chilly, this dish is perfect. This risotto is truly inviting, and I recommend you try it.

Steps

1

Cut the apples into cubes. Place them in a bowl with water and lemon juice. In a non-stick pan, add a drizzle of oil and sauté the bacon.
2

Add the cubed apples soaked in lemon water to the crispy bacon and cook on low heat. Stir and, if needed, add a little vegetable broth to soften the apples.
3

In another pan for risotto, add the finely chopped onion, heat, and let it soften.
4

Add the rice and toast it, then deglaze with white wine.
5

Once the wine evaporates, add a ladle of hot vegetable broth.
6

Stir and gradually add more broth as it is absorbed. Towards the end of cooking, add the apples and bacon.
7

Finish with butter, grated Parmesan cheese, pepper, and chopped rosemary needles. Serve hot.
