Leftover Turkey Risotto recipe
Ingredients
– 2 tablespoon Butter
– 1 Leek, sliced
– 2 Shallots, diced
– 4oz (115g) Leftover turkey
– 0.5 cup (120g) Mushrooms, chopped
– 0.75 cup (150g) Risotto (arborio) rice
– 3 cup (700ml) Chicken stock
– 1 pinch Sea salt
– 1 pinch Ground black pepper
– 0.5 Lemon, juice only
– 2 Garlic cloves, crushed
– 4 sprig Fresh thyme, leaves only
0.33 cup (30g) Parmesan, grated

Instructions
1) Heat theutter in a large pan and add the shallots, leek and garlic. Cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
2) Add the mushrooms. Stir and cook for a further 4-5 minutes.
3) Add the rice. Mix it in and cook until it becomes translucent, about 1-2 minutes.
4) Add the thyme.
5) Add the stock, a little at a time. Mixing it in and waiting for it to absorb. Once it has been absorbed, add a little more stock. Continue to add stock until all of the stock has been absorbed.
6) Add the leftover turkey, sea salt, pepper, lemon juice and Parmesan. Mix it all together and cook for a further 2-3 minutes.

Notes
– Never rinse the rice for risotto, as it rinses off the starch and that’s what makes it nice and creamy.
– We stirred Parmesan in to our risotto, but feel free to sprinkle loads more on top before serving too.
– You can also stir through a bit of butter before serving to make it even creamier.
