    This is an amazing base risotto recipe to do a veggie bin clean out. Swapped out spinach and pumpkin for literally anything. Have pinned this bad boy for frequent, weeknight use.

    Was lazy and didn't clean the bowl after grating the cheese. I also threw bacon and other veggies in with onion and garlic.

    Swapped out wine for chicken stock and inserted the butterfly when adding the rice.

    Submitted by potterybear on 9. September 2021 - 19:05.

    Really tasty, I forgot how much risotto the TM can make! I substituted water for wine, and used leftover roast veg (carrot and pumpkin) and leftover mushroom/bacon, which I lightly fried both in the saucepan before adding.

    Super tasty, the whole family loved it, it made a good amount, my big girl asked if she could take the leftovers to school for lunch!! A bit too much spinach for the toddlers liking so I think I'll halve that next time and we would prefer it less runny, for reference I put in 800g of water which put me a the suggested level, so next time I'll try 700g or even 600g.
    I didn't use the butterfly and had no issues.

    I made this last night for 4 adults and a toddler (and there's leftovers) and we all loved it.
    I added the butterfly when I added the rice.
    I baked the bacon with the pumpkin and grated the spinach with the parmesan which made the risotto a green colour but was absolutely delicious!
    Highly recommend.

    Submitted by Dadougo on 13. August 2019 - 12:05.

    Absolutely delicious. Thanks. I threw in the spinach with the Parmesan and grated it all together then set aside, and I didnt wash the bowl. The butterfly was added just after the sautéing of the rice and wine. The chicken was diced, not sliced. I then boiled up the diced pumpkin and added this as well as the spinach and Parmesan at the end. I then just stared all this through for a few minutes at the end with the butterfly still in. Absolutely yummy and easy! What a hit!

    Yummy, quick and easy.
    I leave out the onion so its tummy friendly for my daughter and steam the pumpkin because it's quicker. I also chop the chicken into bite size pieces as i find it cooks better and is easier to eat. I rarely add the bacon too as the family prefer it without.
    It's a definite family favourite.
