Servings: persons

1 1/2 cups arborio rice
5 cups vegetable broth or water and vegetable bouillon cubes, 1 cube per cup of water
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 onion medium, chopped
2 medium carrots skinned and chopped
1 tablespoon margarine
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons sharp cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons mozzarella cheese

1
In a large saucepan or pot, melt the margarine over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil. Add chopped carrots and onion, and cook until carrots are tender and onion is translucent, about 5 to 7 minutes.
2
Meanwhile, heat the vegetable broth in a large pot. It should be just below boiling or at a rolling boil when added to the rice.
3
Add arborio rice to the pot.
4
Add the white wine to the rice, carrots, and onion. Stir until it has been absorbed by the rice.
5
Add the vegetable broth a half-cup at a time to the rice. You will need to stir the rice until each half-cup of broth is absorbed before you add the next half-cup.
6
Keep adding the liquid until rice is tender. This will take about 20 minutes. I can usually set a timer on this.
7
Remove from heat and stir in cheeses. Serve hot and enjoy!
