    Risotto all’accetosella

    Risotto with sorrel from Passione: Simple, Seductive Recipes for Lovers of Italian Food (page 61) by Gennaro Contaldo EVOO, Onion, celery risotto rice, vegetable stockParmesan cheese, Kerrygold butter, and Red Sorrell I suspect that the French sorrell has a more lemony flavour, so I added lemon juice.

    Asparagus Risotto

    Thermomix/ Cookidoo Recipe It was very good.  Basically followed the recipe, except: I don’t see the point of grating the cheese in the Thermomix and then having to clean the machine to proceed to the next stage. It is much easier to just grate the cheese when needed. The final…

    *Fettuccine with Mutti Pizzutello Tomatoes & Calabrian Chilli Pepper Pasta Sauce

    The Fettuccine was made using leftover dough from the Ravioli. The Multi Pasta Sauce is now the best “sauce in a bottle” that I have so far come across. (Both the flour and pasta sauce were purchased at Woolworths) Highly recommended.
