2 cloves of garlic, finely minced

3 tbsp olive oil

  5. As soon as the rice reaches the point of cooking (it is always good to taste), turn off the heat, adjust the broth (it should be slightly broth), add the cheese in cubes and mix very well to help the cheese to break down and melt. .
  6. Serve immediately in shallow dishes to spread evenly. Sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper and grate the frozen cheese over the risotto.
