  7. Put finished risotto into your thermoserver, add parmesan and stir through, salt and pepper to taste. Leave sit for 10 minutes in thermoserver with lid on.

    I like to add alot of spinach to my risotto's. So either put your desired amount into the Thermoserver and stir it through the risotto, or add it to the individual bowls.

Tip

Remember to read the labels if you have food restrictions to find the product that best suits your needs.

If using a block of parmesan, be sure to blitz this at the beginning and then wash/dry the bowl. If you cook the risotto with parmesan it will stick to the bowl.

I use to grate my Zucchini by hand, but now I just roughly chop and then put into Thermomix bowl on speed 4.5 for a few seconds until I get the desired consistency. If chopping the zucchini with the Thermomix do this at Step 1, either before or after the tomato step.

DAIRY FREE OPTION - Omit parmesan and replace with 2 tablespoons savoury yeast flakes. Use a dairy free butter alternative eg Nuttelex, Bio Butter, or you can opt for olive oil.

CHORIZO - I like to do a thick slice cut in half. But feel free to leave the slices whole.

Thermomix Model

  • Appliance TM 6 image
    Recipe is created for
    TM 6
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
  • Appliance TM 5 image
    Recipe is created for
    TM 5
    If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
    Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

    Easy to make and tasted delicious. I'm lazy so I blitz the Parmesan first, then set aside. Then I grated the zucchini and put aside. I do not wash the bowl.
