    Add remaining stock and chicken. Cook for 15 minutes at 100 degrees on reverse speed soft.

     

  4. Add pumpkin and mix for 2 minutes at 100 degrees on reverse speed 2.

    Add half the spinach to the ThermoServe and the other half to the bowl and mix for 1 minute on reverse speed 3.

    Dish dwas delicious, method was terrible.
    After reading the comments about the pumpkin turning to puree I decided to skip step 1, roast the pumpkin in the oven and add it after the final step.
    Also 15 minutes was no where near long enough to cook the aborio rice, it took 30 minutes. Otherwise, the ingredients were perfect and it tasted amazing.

    This recipe has a nice flavour however the method is terrible. Also ended up with a very burnt bowl and the 10 second mix on speed 5 at the end purée's it, I would have had a very nice risotto if it weren't for this step.

    YUM! this was huge hit in our family. question: is the pumpkin meant to be like a puree once cooked? or should it be chunky?

     

    I agree with Prattles, I found the last 10 sec stir was a bit to much and next time was going to try just stiring it by hand instead.

    Which part of step 3 did the burning happen? The rice and wine or rice and stock? The directions in part 3 are based on the risotto in the EDC. You can use the butterfly in step 3 to help stir. Just remember that you shouldn't go above speed 4 when the butterfly is in the machine.

    A happy and healthy 2013 with Thermomix

    I found that last stir on speed 5 reverse for 10 seconds was way too much.  I had this beautiful risotto that turned into mush after that tmrc_emoticons.( I think the recipe is great and it still tasted nice but texture wise it wasn't good at all after that last 10 seconds,  I think next time I'd just stir with the spoon when I tip it out into the thermoserve.  I will definitely make it again though, because other than that it was great.

    OMG! This is so going to be my TM signature dish  tmrc_emoticons.) I loved this risotto recipe but found that I didn't need to add the whole litre of stock. Definitely going to be on the menu in our household again and again! Thanks for sharing Big Smile
