Risotto from the Thermomix® — how much does it cost?

Risotto from the Thermomix® step by step

1. Put the onion in the mixing bowl and chop it for 3 seconds on level 5.
2. Add the olive oil and sauté the onion on level 1 and at 100 degrees for three minutes.
3. In the next step you add the rice. Steam for another three minutes.
