A comforting risotto without butter or cheese!

Roast shallots, thyme and S & P.

• Roast shallots, thyme and S & P.
• Then add mushrooms (the recipe uses chestnut mushrooms, I substituted portobello mushrooms. You want mushrooms full of flavour), and white balsamic, and roast further.
• Then stir in risotto rice to coat with the pan juices, and then add hot chicken stock.
• Roast until stock is absorbed stirring once every 15min.
• Serve with a good dash of chilli oil and S&P to taste.

It was delicious!
