rustic version of the Italian classic

Peel the potatoes, dice them very finely, and mix them with the chopped rosemary. Finely dice the onion. Heat the stock in a separate saucepan. Heat the butter and oil and fry the rosemary potatoes with the bacon and diced onion. Add the rice and cook until translucent, stirring constantly. Deglaze with a splash of white wine and stir until it has evaporated. Then gradually add the hot stock, ensuring the rice is always just covered. The risotto should have a creamy consistency and the rice grains should still have a bit of bite. Finally, stir the freshly grated Parmesan cheese into the risotto and season with black pepper.
