    Submitted by khm_55 on 6. June 2019 - 16:25.

    Used only 200mls liquid, but still too much. Next time maybe I will add more cauliflower, & mushrooms. Only added a touch of cream as there was already too much liquid. I did add more parmesan cheese, because I can!!

  • Was delicious and smelt wonderful! Definitely too...

    Submitted by DDoktor on 2. May 2019 - 19:41.

    Was delicious and smelt wonderful! Definitely too much liquid so from the other comments I tweaked it to 280ml liquid stock and 130ml cream, doubled the onion, added bacon and peas. I reduced the speed to Counter-clockwise operation 1.5 it managed to maintain a risotto texture. Will be making it again as it was a winner with the family thankyou.

    I made half and it tasted lovely. I also used veggie stock and added water, then added spinach in the thermoserver before pouring risotto. Will definitely make again! Thanks for sharing

    Lovely flavour. I should have read the comments first as mine was a bit watery too. With a little less liquid next time I'm sure it will be perfect tmrc_emoticons.)

    This was really good, I didn't have shallot so used 2 spring onions, only 40g cheese as dieting & no cream.  Added 1 Tbs of veggie stock & 100g of water that's it, so was thick & rissoto like tmrc_emoticons.-)

  • Delicious! Had to add

    Submitted by Babblingapril on 4. November 2014 - 10:51.

    Delicious! Had to add cornflower as mine had the consistency of soup, so next time will use stock with 300-350 mls of water. Absolutely lovely!

    Submitted by irenav93 on 26. August 2014 - 13:59.

    Made this yesterday, one of the easiest and tastiest meals i've made in the thermomix so far! Didn't use the butter, use half of the parmesan and half of the cream also added spinach at the very end. Turned out DELICIOUS! As others have suggested would probably turned the speed down when adding the mushrooms and would even add zucchinis next time. Definitely going to make again. Thanks for sharing!

    The flavour is good, I added prawns in the last 3 minutes as suggested. However very soupy. Nothing like the picture at all. Even a different colour!

    Submitted by Adelle Cimo on 20. August 2014 - 21:13.

    I made half a batch...was very tasty but was still quite runny. Next time wont process cauli as long. Also only cooked on slow speed as I found it was dicing mushy too much on Sp2 rev.  Added a big handful of baby spinach during the 5 min resting to bulk it up. Yum. Definitely will make again.

  • This was a nice meal, as

    Submitted by stickstitchmix on 20. August 2014 - 20:58.

    This was a nice meal, as Cauliflower Carbonara ( we added bacon),  but I wouldnt say it dealt with my mushroom risotto needs ... but it did satisfy needs arising from a cold winter's night well tmrc_emoticons.)  . Mine was a lot soupier than the photo here. Would have been nice with prawns too actually. Was that a non-thermomix version in the photo ...have seen it elsewhere? I might try and reduce spd ir time when doing the rice to make bigger grains. Thanks - tummies full and happy tonight.
