Always thinking of the next meal...
Older readers know by now I love butternut. I have posted recipes where it is used in two soups, a vegan meal, roasted and even in pâté. It was only a matter of time that I was going to use in classic risotto. The original recipe I found in olive magazine but adapted it slightly to make it healthier. Enjoy.
The way I became skilled at cooking was to follow tonnes of recipes. Most of the time I made a little discovery while preparing a meal; whether it was how to use an exotic ingredient, a new method of cooking an ingredient or simply finding a match made in flavour heaven. Cooking is an exciting journey with no destination because it is impossible to know everything. Bottom line? Just enjoy the ride.
