One thing i always have when i go out to restaurants is risotto. I know its quite a simple dish but i can never make is as good as you get it in an Italian restaurant! Though this is the case, i do make it now and again. I have a mass of sweet potatoes so here we are… sweet potato risotto with my home made pesto!
Ingredients:
150/200g Risotto rice
3 medium sweet potatoes
1 stock cube
1 large onion
1 corrugate
3 garlic cloves
salt and pepper for seasoning
Step 1:
Chop up all the veggies and fry in a little oil.
Step 2:
Add the risotto rice, just cover with boiling water and add the stock cube. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 3:
Bring to a light boil and keep adding a small amount of water… until the rice is plumped and cooked.
Once cooked add a table spoon of the homemade pesto!
Mmmm love risotto! I sometimes make a butternut squash and chilli one but have never made sweet potato…must try this!
Lovely! Just had risotto for lunch, so yum!
