Golden coins
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. Heat a pan, pour in olive oil. Sauté finely chopped onion and grated garlic, then add basmati rice and stir. After a couple of minutes, add saffron, white wine, and broth. Cook the rice over low heat until done. After cooking, let the rice cool down. Steam the asparagus (about 7–10 minutes). Mix grated Parmesan cheese with the rice. Heat a small pan, melt a piece of butter in it. Shape the cooked rice and cheese mixture into round, coin-like patties. Fry the rice cakes until golden brown on both sides. Drizzle the cooked asparagus with truffle oil and sprinkle with fresh lemon juice. Arrange the rice coins, asparagus, and ham slices attractively on a plate. The dish is now ready to be served.
