1

Finely chop the onion.

2

Heat the stock in a medium-sized pot and have a ladle ready.

3

Melt the butter and olive oil together in a medium-sized pot.

4

Sauté the onion for 5 minutes over a medium-low heat, or until softened.

5

Stir in the rice and cook for a few minutes, or until it begins to toast.

6

Stir in a ladle of stock to deglaze the pan.

7

Add the saffron and begin to add the stock, a ladle at a time, stirring continually.

8

Ladle in more stock, stirring until each addition has reduced. Continue this process until all the stock has been used.

9

After 25-30 minutes, all the stock should be absorbed and the rice should be creamy and al dente.

10

Finely grate 50g of the Parmesan and stir into the rice.

11

Meanwhile bring a large pan of water to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and carefully crack in the eggs (in batches if necessary).

12

Poach for 3 minutes until the whites have set.

13

Remove with a slotted spoon onto kitchen paper towels to drain.

14

Divide the risotto between four bowls and top with Parmesan shavings, olive oil and the poached.
