Riso arrosto

Riso arrosto is a traditional dish originating from Liguria. It consists of baked rice and meat. The dish is made with a combination of Arborio rice, veal, onions, parsley, stock, butter, grated cheese, and meat sauce known as sugo di carne. In order to prepare it, the meat is chopped and cooked with browned onions and parsley.

The rice is cooked in sugo di carne that's thinned with a bit of stock, if necessary. The onion and meat mixture is added to the rice with grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese. Once cooked, the combination is placed into a buttered baking dish, and it's then baked until a nice crust forms on the exterior.
