Vegetarian Risotto


This is a warming and totally simple dish for a cold night.

Heat some olive oil in a saucepan add a generous portion of butter and melt
Add your aborio rice ( 1 cup for 2 people) and coat until translucent

Meanwhile heat your stock (about 2 litres) in a separate pan, I used vegetable stock obviously

Now ladle a couple of spoonfuls at a time into the rice
Enough just to cover and then repeat once absorbed

The rice is done when just a hint of bite is left although I prefer mine soft.

Now stir through a good cup of grated parmesan

For this dish I had previously cooked some portobello mushrooms and asparagus which I also stirred through at the end.

For the teenager a salmon fillet was added.
