Made this for dinner tonight, delicious! Added leftover roast chicken at the end which topped it off nicely. Such a quick meal to make but lots of flavour.
If I could give it 6 stars I would. I just happened to have bought all of these ingredients at the supermarket so it seem to be destiny that I cook it. I loved the lemony, garlicky flavours. It was super easy to make with it's simple ingredients, but the flavours worked a miracle together. And, best of all, everyone in the family loved it. I had them all coming out asking what was for dinner when the smells were wafting through the house. Winner!! Definitely going into the family favs. Thank you so much.
Too much lemon for my liking.
Added 2 Zucchini’s -
I cooked this last week and enjoyed it hot, also cold for lunch. Love the lemony flavour and the lightness of the leek in it! I didn't have any spinach, but I stirred in some fresh asparagus pieces when I put the risotto in the thermoserver. They turned out beautifully - slightly crunchy but cooked enough by the heat of the risotto.
WOW - just discovered this!
We just loved it and it's such a quick and easy recipe too.
Instead of butter, I substituted the same quantity of Nuttelex "Buttery" for dairy allergic hubby, and it turned out great!
I took your advice and served with grilled lamb (YUM!) and I'm looking forward to experimenting with different versions. This'll definitely be a regular from now on - thanks!
Delicious - thank you for sharing the recipe😁
Delicious! I add chicken at the same time as the zucchini and it is a perfect speedy dinner.
So so so good!
I use this recipe for demos! Always a 5stars!
Made it for the first time for guests last night and everyone really enjoyed it. Super easy to make and interesting that you don't have to use the butterfly attachment. Thanks!
