Minestra di riso e indivia

Minestra di riso e indivia is a traditional soup. This simple soup is made with a combination of chicken stock, Arborio rice, curly endive, and grated cheese such as Parmigiano-Reggiano. The stock is brought to a boil over medium heat, and when it starts boiling, rice is added to the pot. A few minutes before the rice becomes al dente, endive is added to the pot and cooked shortly. The soup is served in individual bowls and topped with freshly grated cheese.
