Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 250 °C.
  2. Heat the broth in a pot.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a wok-style pan.
  4. Once the olive oil is hot, add the rice and stir slowly (in a way that creates a swirling motion, but slowly, ensuring that the rice doesn’t stick). ≈ 4 min
  5. Continue to stir until the rice is “crisp” or lightly golden (avoid burning it). ≈ 4 min
  6. After that, the broth is added to the wok, ensuring that it completely covers the rice.
  7. Cover the wok and place it in the oven.
  8. After 15 minutes of baking, remove the wok from the oven, add the oil, season with salt, and check if the pasta is “al dente”.
