Preparation
Finely chop the onions and cook gently in the oil until soft but not coloured.
Add the rice and let it sweat gently for 1 minute.
Add the white wine. Let it evaporate then slowly add the vegetable stock a ladleful at a time. Make sure the rice is always just covered with stock.
Cook the risotto on a low heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the mascarpone and some lavender blossoms. Add a little more vegetable stock, depending on the consistency.
Chop the apricots into small pieces and add them to the risotto just before serving.
