Step 1Heat a large frying pan over high heat and fry the lardons until golden, about
5min. Using a slotted spoon, lift on to
a plate. Turn down the heat to low-medium,
add butter to the pan and fry
the onion for 5min, until softened.
Step 2Stir in the garlic and fry for 1min, then
stir in the rice and cook, stirring, for
1min. Add the wine and bubble until
absorbed. Gradually add the stock
1 ladleful at a time, stirring constantly,
only adding the next ladleful when the
previous one has been absorbed – this
should take about 20min. Remove from
heat, cover and set aside to rest for 5min.
Step 3Meanwhile, in a small bowl whisk the
egg yolks and cream to combine. Mix
into the rested rice, along with the
bacon and Parmesan. Check seasoning.
Divide between 4 bowls and garnish
with parsley, freshly ground black
pepper and Parmesan, if you like. Serve.
