Heat oil in a pot, sauté the garlic, shallot, and rice for 1-2 minutes, then deglaze with white wine. Briefly bring to a boil, add two ladles of broth, and cook while stirring over medium heat. Gradually add more broth until the risotto is al dente (firm to the bite). If broth runs low, add hot water. Season with salt and pepper.
