absorbed. Continue the process, adding broth one ladleful at a time. After 20 minutes,
add peas, mushrooms and onions. Continue to add broth and cook until the rice is tender.
Remove the pan from the heat. Stir in mascarpone, grated Parmigiano Reggiano and
prosciutto. Add parsley and salt and pepper to taste.
