This technique is so much easier than making other risottos. It is really great tasting, and will be made again and again for my family!

    We enjoyed this dish. I found I didn't need too much of the extra broth. Found it made closer to 6 servings for us but it will be good for leftovers. Thanks for sharing.

    This turned out great! I made mine using vegetable stock. The only difference for me was in step 10. All the liquid was absorbed and the rice was cooked through after about 7 minutes, which was fine because the asparagus was nice and bright green, and still had a slight crunch to it! Just the way I like it.

    The texture of this is amazingly rich and perfect. Being vegetarian I used veg stock and added a bit of crushed red pepper with the nutmeg (we like everything spicy!). I left out the spinach as we had none, but I can't wait to make this again with other veggies. Oh, and I added a clove of garlic with the onions and baked this in my corningware casserole (after starting it in a saucepan). Thanks for a great recipe that is going into my permanent files!
