Chicken and Chorizo Risotto
Another winner with the kids. Risotto is so versatile you can literally use what ever left overs you have to change up the flavours.
Ideally you want your rice to be aldente. It should stick together but not be soupy or mushy.
Using wine will add a nice richness but i tend not to cook with wine when cooking for the children. Using stock instead is just as nice.

Stir frequently but not continuously. Repeat this process until you have used all of your stock. It should take around 20 mins.

Once cooked, mix through your Parmesan and serve.
Sprinkle your favourite fresh herb on top if you wish.

Basic Risotto Basic Risotto
Risotto is one of those basic dishes that is great to have in your back pocket for quick dinners, and using up leftovers. Once you have the basic technique mastered, you can make it as fancy or as casual as you like.TIPS: The basic ratio for risotto is 1 part uncooked rice to 3.5 parts liquid. This will include your stock, wine and any additional liquid you are using. Keep an additional 0.5 parts liquid in reserve, as various rices absorb slightly different amounts of liquid.Most risotto recipes call for wine and stock as the liquid, but you can also make "stock" on the fly with dried mushrooms and aromatics such as carrots and celery, added at the beginning of the process with the onions.A little fat added at the end in the form of butter and/or a bit of grated hard cheese will really help give a creamy finish to your risotto.

Mushroom Risotto Instant Pot IP Mushroom Risotto Instant Pot IP
I like risotto, but do not like making it. But with the IP, I thought it might be worth giving it a try. And it was! So I looked up the technique, some recipes, shuffled them to what I thought might be good, and came up with this one. First go, dang good! I used button mushrooms, because that's what I had (and they were on sale), some cheap wine, just for this recipe (I'm not a wine drinker), and away I went. The wife loved it! Serving number depends on if you are using this as a side, or main course.

Radicchio and Mushroom Risotto Radicchio and Mushroom Risotto
This is an Italian staple dish made with radicchio. I learned a recipe from my Italian friend, and rearranged it into easy-to-make amounts and simpler steps.I used white wine in the picture, but if you use red wine, it will give a deeper colour. When the rice becomes al dente, you don't need to use up the chicken stock. If you used it up before the rice becomes al dente, please add some water. For 3 servings. Recipe by dreamy-kitten
