Nice recipe ......... think I could have done with a lot more bacon or possibly chicken next time 🤗
Thanks for a beautiful recipe, needed something to serve with roasted duck legs. Beautiful, could have added butter but decided to be good. Definitely my favourite risotto recipe for my thermo to date X
so good! i added some diced chicken breast, some spring onion and extra garlic and it was perfect, definitely needs the 5mins rest to thicken up!
Really tasty meal that's easy to make. Super rich. Definitely leave it to rest at the end so that it thickens up.
This recipe was so easy and delicious. I halved the amount too and it made the perfect amount for lunch today and tomorrow - can't wait to eat it again!
My hubby and I loved this (kids not so much but they're not a fan of hot wet rice normally). Made quickly on a whim. Discovered I only had half the rice at that point in recipe so I just halved the liquid ingredients and stock. Luckily it was perfect amount of risotto. Being pregnant, I didn't want to open a bottle of wine if I couldn't drink it so I sloshed a little apple cider vinegar and it was a good sub, gave a nice kick.
Such an easy meal to put together quickly and tasty too
Great recipe, very tasty
Absolutely delicious! The kids love it! I find this recipe makes enough to feed the 5 kids and both of us adults too which is even better
I cooked this this evening and it was yummy. Only got my thermo yesterday and was so impressed how easy it was to make.
