How to cook a sweet saffron risotto? By adding prawns and orange.

Peel the garlic and brown it in a frying pan with 2 tablespoons of oil, add the prawn tails and leave to gain flavor for 5 minutes over high heat. Discard the garlic.

Toast the rice

In a casserole, sauté the peeled and chopped onion with the butter and a little bit of oil. Toast the rice, pour in 1/2 glass of wine and add 1 ladle of hot broth in which you have dissolved the saffron and tomato paste.
