I adore making risotto and have made quite a few on here for example pancetta, leek and pea, maitake and crab risotto I got the Maitake once when my parents were visiting as I thought what a cool looking mushroom my Dad was game my Mum not so much.
Another one I love is Heirloom tomato and squash this one had a great color. I made something similar to this with zucchini and eggplant from the garden the other day and since I would be standing at the stove for a while and I had hubby on kid watching duty :-) I thought I would have fun and make a sweet one.
I used blueberries and strawberries and white chocolate with vanilla in it. This made a lovely dessert and no sugar was needed with the berries.
Ingredients:
- one cup of arborio rice
- about 2-3 cups of water
- one cup of chopped strawberries
- 1/2 a cup of blueberries
- 1/2 a pack of Green and Blacks white vanilla chocolate with a little left for garnish
Method:
- add the rice with the berries on a low heat then slowly add water little by little
- stir as the water reduces and add as it sticks keep stirring it will take a good 20-25 minutes to cook, near the end slowly mix in the white chocolate it will melt nicely
- garnish with berries and grated chocolate
- enjoy
Doesn't it look pretty :-)
