Note
Tips: For best results, use room temperature stock and stir the risotto occasionally during cooking.
Don't skip the wine as it adds depth to the flavour. If the risotto becomes too thick, add a splash of hot stock.
The finished texture should be creamy and flowing, not stiff. Let the risotto rest for 2 minutes before serving to achieve the perfect consistency.
