Heat the stock in a pan over a moderate heat.

Heat the olive oil in a pan. Add the onions, garlic and celery, and fry gently for about 5 minutes until softened. Add the rice to the pan and turn up the heat. Cook for a minute or so, stirring constantly, until the rice looks slightly translucent.

Add the wine and keep stirring - any alcohol flavours will evaporate. Once the wine has been absorbed by the rice, add your first ladle of hot stock and a good pinch of salt and pepper.

Turn the heat down to a simmer so the rice doesn't cook too quickly on the outside.

Add the stock, a ladleful at a time, stirring constantly and allowing each ladleful to be absorbed before adding the next, until the rice is cooked but still holds its shape - this takes about 15 minutes.

Stir in the Appenzeller and taleggio. Remove the pan from the heat and season to taste, then beat in the butter and Parmesan.

Place a lid on the pan and leave to rest for 2 to 3 minutes - your risotto will get nice and oozy. Enjoy!
