Leek and broccoli spelt risotto - vegan
I love using spelt to make a risotto - mainly for the nutty taste but also because it is low maintenance!
On a cold rainy day, i made it with some leeks and broccoli for a steaming bowl of healthy comfort food 😋
I cooked the leeks separately to give them some extra love and it felt like a spring dish.
The risotto part can be used as a base for any vegetables.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
For the risotto: in a pan, heat the oil and then sauté the onion and garlic and thyme on a low heat for about 10 mins until translucent. Add the spelt and stir for about 1 minute. Start adding the stock about 100ml at a time. The spelt takes about 25mins to cook - it should be tender but still with a bite. You don’t need to stir all the time.

For the leeks: In another pan, heat the oil on a low- medium heat. Add the leeks. Put a lid on the pan and cook the leeks for about 10 mins until soft. Stir occasionally. When they are ready, squeeze the lemon juice over them.

Meanwhile, steam the broccoli.

Season the risotto and fold the leeks and broccoli through. Taste for seasoning and lemon - add more if needed. Stir some (veggie/ vegan) parmesan through if you have any. Enjoy 😋

Mushroom and Shrimp Risotto Mushroom and Shrimp Risotto
When I think of mushrooms, I think of risotto... it's one of my favorite dishes! My version uses brown rice and skips butter and cheese. To make it creamy, I stir it vigorously the whole time it cooks. Freshly picked mushrooms have a special flavor, and when combined with shrimp, they make this risotto truly delicious.

King Oyster Mushroom Risotto (Vegan Friendly) King Oyster Mushroom Risotto (Vegan Friendly)
I was craving some risotto so here's what I made with the king oyster mushrooms that was in the fridge.It's delicious even without adding any cheese. Give it a try!-No need to rinse the rice.-I used Maggy-brand dairy-free soup stock.-If you leave the heat at low, the rice will be al dente.-I only needed a single shake of pepper for the seasoning. It was already delicious from the soup and the mushroom flavor. For 2 servings. Recipe by Yukoai_yukoi

Brown Rice Risotto with Leek Cream and Shrimp Tails Brown Rice Risotto with Leek Cream and Shrimp Tails
Hi everyone! Today I’m sharing a creamy shrimp risotto. I decided to use brown rice, which isn’t the most traditional choice for risotto—it’s a bit like parboiled rice and doesn’t create the creamy texture you get with classic arborio rice. But that’s exactly why I like it! I love risotto with rice that stays firm and whole. I hope this idea piques your interest. This dish is also great for anyone on a diet, especially served with a nice salad.
