  • 4 tablespoons olive oil

Step 1

Peel the lower third of the green asparagus stalks. Trim the ends and slice into bite-size pieces.

In a pan, preheat 3 tablespoons of olive oil. Add chopped garlic and sauté briefly. Add asparagus and sauté briefly. Add a little water and continue cooking for 4-5 minutes. Cover pan and set aside.

Step 3

Bring the broth to a simmer in a small pan.

In a large pan, fry the rice in the remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Gradually add the vegetable broth, stirring occasionally, over the next 20 minutes (add more vegetable broth as it evaporates).

Step 5

Just 5 minutes before risotto is done, add asparagus and warm through. Stir ham, flaked butter and freshly grated Parmesan cheese into the rice. Add seasoning to taste. Garnish with the parsley.
