3 Start the Risotto
Place another medium pot over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.
Add rice, white portions of green onions, and onion salt to hot pot. Stir occasionally until rice is toasted and opaque, 1-2 minutes.Add 1 cup boiling water from other medium pot to pot with rice. Rice should just be covered by water. Stir often until nearly all water is absorbed. -

Add 1/2 cup boiling water from other medium pot and stir often again until nearly all water is absorbed. Repeat this process, stirring often, 18-20 minutes.
Taste risotto as you cook, checking for tenderness. When rice has no more “bite” or crunch, it's done. There may be water left.Remove from burner. Stir in butter, peas, and green portions of green onions. -
