Risotto

[chazza]

Can anyone give me an easy recipe that they use for a risotto? I can google for them but I'd rather have a recipe that someone can recommend

I have the usual ingredients, rice, stock, wine, also have chicken, mushrooms, onion and all different herbs and spices

[thugulike]

I gently saute some onion and mushroom in olive oil, add herbs and rice. Add stock slowly, not too much at a time. Is the chicken cooked? If not pop it in the pan with the onion. If it is cooked add it towards the end of cooking or it'll go too dry. Keep adding some stock/wine. Add grated parmesan or gruyere as you go along as this adds richness. Make sure you season well. I like fresh asparagus or peas in my risotto too, but you can put almost anything in.

The key to a good risotto: keep stirring!

i use this one and it never fails ( i often replace half the soup with stock as i don`t like things too rich) i have varied it to use different soups and meat/fish and still works every time :-)

Make sure the rice is coated with the oil so as to achieve an al-dente effect. Same goes for paella.
