Beefy Aparagus risotto

today after school from canada college, i whipped up a delicious Risotto, i adapted it from rachael ray show and it was suzanne somers recipe, a very good friend and fellow actress to John Ritter who reminded me of my godfather randy who currently lives in idaho, but the actor John died several years and still think of him everytime i see suzanne somers on tv, so this recipe uses not chicken stock, beef broth, i also added 1 cup of water to cut the salt off, but no jalapeno. so here it is and i hope you enjoy!!

Beefy Asparagus risotto

2 tbl extra virgin olive oil (EVOO)
1/2 Red onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic minced
1 cup arborio Rice( i get it at Trader Joe's and it comes in color ruby red)
4 cups beef broth plus 1 cup water
1 bunch asparagus, ends off and chopped into 1/2 inch pieces

place a large skillet over medium-high heat. add EVOO and Red onion and saute until the onion is translucent about 3-5 minutes. add garlic and cook for 2 minutes then add the Rice and toss with oil onion and garlic mixture unti coated and the rice begins to be toasted
add 1 cup of broth stir until absorbed. add the next cup of broth and continue until aborsbed. add the third cup of broth and the chopped asparagus. the asparagus will cook as the broth is aborsbed. add the fourth cup of broth cup making sure to test rice for doneness, if it is al dente "not cooked:, i would add 1 cup of water. serve with parmesan cheese
