Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients you use, the better your risotto will be. Look for fresh, seasonal asparagus and lobster, and use a good quality Arborio rice.
  • Cook the rice properly: Arborio rice is a short-grain rice that absorbs a lot of liquid, so it's important to cook it slowly and carefully. Add the rice to the pot a little at a time, and stir constantly so that it doesn't stick to the bottom of the pot.
  • Use a flavorful broth: The broth you use to cook the risotto will add a lot of flavor to the dish. Use a good quality seafood broth or chicken broth, or make your own broth using lobster shells or asparagus trimmings.
  • Add the lobster and asparagus at the end: The lobster and asparagus should be cooked just before serving, so that they don't overcook and become tough. Add them to the risotto in the last few minutes of cooking.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like chives, parsley, or basil add a nice finishing touch to risotto. Sprinkle them over the top of the dish just before serving.
