1 packet
tomato paste
1 packet
portabello mushrooms
1 bag
baby spinach leaves
1 sachet
Nan's Special Seasoning
1 packet
Grated Parmesan Cheese
(Contains: Milk; )
olive oil
2 cup
boiling water
40 g
butter
(Contains: Milk; )

• Preheat oven to 220ºC/200ºC fan-forced. • Roughly chop mild chorizo and tomato. Thinly slice portabello mushrooms. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook chorizo, mushrooms and tomato, stirring, until starting to brown, 3-4 minutes. • Meanwhile, boil the kettle.

• Add arborio rice, garlic paste, tomato paste and Nan's special seasoning to the pan with chorizo and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 minute. • Remove from heat, then add the boiling water (2 cups for 2 people / 4 cups for 4 people). Stir to combine. • Transfer risotto mixture to a baking dish. Cover tightly with foil, then bake until liquid is absorbed and rice is 'al dente', 24-28 minutes.
TIP: 'Al dente' rice is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.

• When the risotto is done, stir through the butter, baby spinach leaves and 1/2 the grated Parmesan cheese. Season to taste.
TIP: If the risotto looks dry, stir through a splash of water.

• Divide chorizo and mushroom risotto between bowls. • Top with remaining Parmesan cheese to serve. Enjoy!
