For the risotto:
Toast the rice in a frying pan with a bit of extra virgin olive oil. Sprinkle with white wine and drizzle the rice with Grana Padano infusion. After about 10 minutes, season the rice with salt and pepper to taste and keep cooking with vegetable stock, if necessary. Stir until cooked; add extra virgin olive oil (or butter, if preferred) and salt, if needed.

Wash and clean the vegetables. Blanch them separately in salted water and drain. Cut Brussels sprouts in quarters; divide broccoli and cauliflowers into small florets. Marinate the cauliflowers and other vegetables with white Balsamic vinegar, extra virgin olive oil and salt.
Place the risotto on the bottom of each plate, garnish with cauliflowers and complete with slices of Prosciutto di San Daniele.
