How to prepare it step by step?
Preparation
- Melt the butter in a heavy-based frying pan over medium heat and gently cook the onion until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes, without browning.
- Add the rice and stir to coat all the grains with the butter until they become slightly translucent, about 2 minutes.
- Pour in the white wine and cook, stirring gently, until fully absorbed, approximately 2-3 minutes.
- Gradually add the hot broth, one ladle at a time, stirring continuously until each addition is absorbed before adding more. Continue until the rice is al dente, about 18 minutes.
- Stir in the lemon juice and zest, then add the prawns, salmon, and asparagus tips. Cook until the seafood is just cooked through, about 3-4 minutes, until the prawns are pink and the salmon is opaque.
- Season with ground black pepper to taste and sprinkle with parmesan shavings just before serving to maintain their texture and flavor.
