  Risotto: The rice is first cooked briefly in butter or olive oil until evenly coated and the rice starts to turn translucent, before broth is added, one ladle at a time.

  You can get cheaper (and somewhat inferior) risotto at Pastamania and Miss Clarity Cafe.

  The one at Pastamania is fried rice, not risotto.

  I can cook it exactly like those you get in Australia top restaurants . Once i taste it, i will know how to recreate the taste.
  
  This is how to cook it.
  
  1) heat up the wok, melt the butter or use olive oil - depend on what favour you like.
  2) add in the rice - uncook rice, wash and nicely dry. The real type of rice to use is Italian Arborio (a fat, starchy, medium grain rice. But usually cheaper to use japanese rice - cheap on from austrlia will be just as good.
  3) Well fry the rice with butter or olive oil, fry till the rice is super hot, they get transparent a little and hopping on the wok.
  4) Then add in stock - a little by little while you carry on frying the rice. As the rice by now is so dry and hot , they will absorb the stock into them fully. The stock will depend on what favour risotto you like - chicken, mushroom or seafood.
  5) adding more stock, to cover the rice, then slow fire to cook it.
  6) when the risotto is almost cook, add in cheese + ingredent ( chicken + mushroom or seafood) .
  7) risotto is served !!!
