Croatian Black Risotto

cuttlefish

🥗Healthier: squid

💰Cheaper: pollock

Squid is often easier to find and less expensive than cuttlefish.

Parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated cheese blend

Nutritional yeast provides a cheesy flavor with fewer calories.

Heat olive oil in a pot over low heat.

Add diced onion and sweat for about 10 minutes until translucent, covering with a lid.

Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until aromatic.

Add cuttlefish and stir to start cooking, cooking for about 10 minutes until it releases water.

Season with salt and black pepper.

Add 2 cups of arborio rice and stir.

Pour in just over 1 cup of fish stock, ensuring it covers the rice and pushing any rice on the sides down into the liquid.

Leave the rice to cook without stirring, keeping an eye on the liquid level.
