Instructions

  1. Clean the vegetables. Roughly grate the carrots and finely dice the onion and zucchini.
  2. Fry the onion cubes and grated carrots together with the rice in olive oil in a non-stick pan. When the rice is lightly browned, deglaze with the white wine. Reduce the temperature and briefly put the lid on so that the wine is absorbed by the rice and does not simply evaporate. Then gradually add the vegetable stock and let it soak over low heat for about 20 minutes.
  3. Add the zucchini cubes 10 minutes before the end of the cooking time and stir in - not earlier, otherwise they will be mushy. At the very end, mix in the grated cheese and season with salt, pepper and a pinch of sugar.
  4. You can of course vary the amount of vegetables depending on your taste.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
