Recipe time: Chicken & Chorizo Risotto

glitch · 11 Mar 2007 at 21:50

Following on from a request made by SiruisB in the ‘Can you cook’ thread, here’s one of the recipes I’ve been writing up and photographing for inclusion in a charity cookbook. There are three more to come (one breakfast dish, one dessert and one cake) and hopefully people will get some use out of them and enjoy cooking something a bit different.

If you right-click on the photo below you can download a PDF of the recipe to print out and use in the kitchen.

Thoughts/comments/criticism gratefully received.

Sounds delicious! I love Chorizo, that portion needs to be multiplied by about 6 though for a decent sized meal

It isn't my opinion, and I mean parmesan.

You are seriously missing out on onion, have to caramelise it and it tastes sweet and yummy!

Parmesan I can understand to a certain degree, as it can taste like feet. Though in small amounts in risotto imparts a different dimension to it.

/takes off pretentious foody hat.

OP: Where's the garlic?!?!!?

I wasn't joking about it not being opinion btw, they both have butyric acid in. The smell and taste is that of vomit

Looks good, might have to try it out sometime.. I only ever seem to cook myself the same meals and I'm bored of them!

Personal taste. I find that garlic gets lost amongst the flavours in this dish, but I'd use a little in seafood risotto.

Lies.

Pasta, pesto, garlic and mozzarella tbh.

Or Roquefort.

Parmesan mings every which way. I don't like eating dessicated sick

Looks great, will try it this week. Serves 2 though? Serves about a quarter of me

Needs Garlic though!

And good Parmesan is one of the nicest cheeses you can get, don't buy the crap from Tescos, go to a proper cheese shop! (The same for all cheeses, but especially the speciality ones).
