Step 1

Crisp the pancetta. Cook the diced pancetta over low heat until crispy and the fat has rendered out. Remove and set aside.

Cook the tomatoes. Cook the tomatoes down in the leftover pancetta fat and season with salt, pepper, and some red pepper flakes. 

Step 3

Saute the shallots. Saute the shallots in a bit of butter, then add the tomato paste and risotto rice. 

Step 4

Add the tomatoes. Add the tomatoes back to the skillet and add the white wine. Cook until the wine has been absorbed. 

Step 5

Add broth in stages. Add the broth one ladleful at a time. Stir well between additions and wait until the liquid is absorbed before adding more.

Finish. Once the rice is cooked, add in the butter, mascarpone, cheese, basil, and pancetta. Season to taste and serve!
