    1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan
    Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Add wine and bring to boil, stirring until most of wine is absorbed. Add 1/2 cup broth and cook, stirring, at gentle simmer. When most of liquid is absorbed, add another 1/2 cup hot broth.

Remove pan from heat and stir in cheese, salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
