Recipe Notes
Adding the parmesan cheese is an optional ingredient and will make your risotto a lot stickier than a typical risotto. It will also make your risotto a lot creamier than a typical risotto as well. This dish is great without the parmesan, if that is your preference, however it is also great with the parmesan for a nice variation. perhaps try is either way and see which you prefer.
