Risotto with Sun-Dried Tomatoes and Mozzarella

Risotto with Sun-Dried Tomatoes and Mozzarella
  • 5 1/2 cups vegetable stock
  • 1/3 cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cups Arborio rice
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
  • salt and pepper to taste


  1. In a large saucepan, bring the vegetable stock to a simmer. While the stock is heating, drain the sun-dried tomatoes and reserve the oil. Chop the tomatoes coarsely and set them aside.
  2. In a large frying pan, warm 2 tablespoons of oil from the tomatoes, add onion and saute until translucent; about 6 minutes.
  3. Add rice to the frying pan and stir until white spots appear in the center of the grains; about 1 minute. Spoon a ladleful of vegetable stock into the frying pan and cook the mixture on low until all the stock is absorbed; about 2 minutes. Continue adding the stock, a ladleful at a time until the rice is tender and the mixture is creamy, approximately 20 to 25 minutes.
  4. Add the mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, 2 tablespoons of the remaining oil from the tomatoes, chopped basil, and salt and pepper. Mix well and serve.
