Risotto with Vidalia Green Onions and Blue Cheese

Bring broth to a simmer in a medium saucepan (do not boil). Keep warm over low heat.

Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and carrot; sauté 5 minutes or until tender, stirring frequently. Add rice, garlic and bay leaf; cook 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Stir in 1 cup broth; cook 5 minutes or until the liquid is nearly absorbed, stirring frequently. Stir in 1/2 cup broth, vermouth, salt, and oregano. Add remaining broth, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring frequently until each portion of broth is absorbed before adding the next (about 25 minutes). Stir in cheese and remaining ingredients. Serve with roast chicken, ham, or pork.
