2 Onions, finely chopped 
- 
            
2 Garlic Cloves, finely chopped 
- 
            
1l Stock (simply boil your leftover carcass with 2l water for 5 hours)

400g Risotto Rice

Directions

Add half of your stock and simmer until most of the stock has been absorbed. Add roughly a cupful more and continue cooking until the rice is creamy but is still slightly al dente (you may not need all of the stock).
