today I am going to be sharing this budget friendly delicious risoto recipe with you it is meatless but I am telling you this now it is absolutely delicious and I definite must [Music] try right so the first thing we are going to do is get a pan and bring it up to heat and then we just going to add in some olive oil you want to be quite generous with this because you’re going to sauté off some onions and garlic and just moment so in my onion dicer I have got one white onion in here and I’ve also got three garlic cloves I absolutely love an onion dicer because it means you just do not cry when you need to disp an onion and it is so quick and easy I’ll link this down below because it’s a good one add your onions into your pan and then just sauté those off for a few minutes once your onions and garlic has sauteed for a few minutes you then want to go in with your Roto rice so for four people I don’t cook 100 G per person or I do just a bit less because I do find risoto quite filling so I’ve got 300 G of risotto rice in here I’m going to pour that in there and then I’m just going to let that cook for a few minutes until your rice kind of goes a little bit translucent and then I’m going to add an ingredient that you cannot miss out something that I think is pretty essential when you’re making a roto is to add some white wine so I’ve just got a really cheap bottle of white wine here and you can just keep this in your fridge and it can be your cooking wine so you just want to add a generous glug of that and don’t worry about thinking it’s going to be alcoholic because it will just all burn off through the cooking process but it’s going to give it such flavor so that has basically absorbed now so what I’m going to do is start adding in my stock so what I’ve got here is one stock Cube so far and then I’ve got 500 Ms of veg stock so I’m just going to slowly add that in don’t want to add it all in at once because you just want your risoto rice to start absorbing the stock and then you add a little bit more so bit by bit by bit so you can actually turn your hob down a little bit now so it’s more on a high simmer um so it Cooks slowly because if you cook it too quickly then you’ll find your Roto rice just is a little bit raw in the middle and then what I also like to do is just pop a lid on as well to keep all that heat in your pot so this has been cooking for a little while now but what I’m going to do it’s not finished yet because I’m still adding in water you basically want to add double the amount of water that you have well I did 700 Ms of water that I’ve got here which I will add all of it into so double in a tiny bit more um and then that’s going to enable your rice to Puff out really nicely so before it finishes cooking I’m going to add in some chopped sundried tomatoes I have got some of their juices is here as well and then I’m also going to season it with a little bit of salt and pepper and then what I feel makes this dish the best is by adding some bouran cheese so this is the garlic and herb bouran cheese so it’s packed full of flavor already and it’s just going to add so much to this dish so what I’ve got here is half of bourand kind of round and I’m going to add all of the half into it this is going to make it super creamy super cheesy this is kind of to replace any cheeses that you want to put on this as well like any parmesan you don’t need to add it because you’ve got it in your sauce already adding my last bit of boiling water oh you always want to have boiling water by the way because otherwise you’re going to kind of take the cooking process down every time you add in some new water you’re going to kind of stop almost the whole cooking process by adding cold water so always boiling water right last little bit of cooking and then we’re going to add in the final ingredient guys we’re nearing the end now there’s lots of different ways you can have your Roto I quite like it when it’s a little bit Saucy but I know lots of people like it quite dry so you can just basically cook this for as long as you like to get the right consistency for you last thing we’re going to do is get a generous handful of spinach and just stick it in there let it Wilt down and then you’re ready to [Music] serve and there you have it your super simple budget friendly meatless but deliciously creamy cheesy risoto that is so good oh that is absolutely delicious some days I think I could be veggie other days I think not that’s good oh that’s delicious
