Truffle-Scented Risotto in Phyllo

"Unlike classic risotto, this one is stirred only once. We loved the subtle flavor imparted by the white truffle oil. If you don't have truffle oil, add a little extra Parmesan. Look for phyllo cups in the freezer section of your grocery store, if you'd rather not make your own. Cooking Light, SEPTEMBER 2002"
