Steps
  1. In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until softened.
  2. Add the rice and stir to coat with the oil. Cook for 1 minute.
  3. Add the white wine (if using) and cook until it is absorbed.
  4. Add 1 cup of broth at a time, stirring constantly until all of the liquid is absorbed before adding more.
  5. Continue to add broth until the rice is cooked through but still slightly al dente (about 20 minutes). You may not need to use all of the broth.
  6. Stir in the Parmesan cheese and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Serve immediately.
