A proper dish, or just a fancy way of saying 'I've overcooked the rice'? Discuss.

I love risotto. Especially mushroom. In fact that's what I had yesterday.

Marks do a lovely cherry tomato risotto in their low fat range, but you can hardly ever find it

I have never tried it but I will be tomorrow. I am cooking a prawn and butternut squash risotto. Wish me luck

Risotto is yummy... always best to use arborio rice for the best results. Has that nice sticky texture.

Good luck Choccy Chick. It's easy - just add the liquid a couple of spoonfulls at a time and keep stirring!

I agree with you, love wild mushroom or sun dried tomato, favourite four cheese... yummy now I feel hungry...

I love mushroom risotto too. Can't stand sun dried tomatoes though.
