Cooking Steps

Get prepped
1
  • Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. 
  • Finely chop garlic and celery. 
  • Thinly slice onion (see ingredients). 
  • Roughly chop brie. 
Start the risotto
2
  • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook diced bacon and celery, until starting to brown, 4-5 minutes. 
  • Add garlic, herb & mushroom seasoning and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. 
  • Add risotto-style rice and stir to coat. Add the water. 
  • Bring to the boil, then remove from heat.
Bake the risotto
3
  • Transfer risotto to a baking dish. 
  • Cover tightly with foil and bake until liquid is absorbed and rice is ‘al dente’, 24-28 minutes.
Caramelise the onion
4
  • When risotto has 10 minutes remaining, wash out frying pan and return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. 
  • Cook sliced onion, stirring regularly until softened, 5-6 minutes. 
  • Reduce heat to medium-low. Add the balsamic vinegar, brown sugar and a good splash of water and mix well. Cook until dark and sticky, 3-5 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and allow to cool slightly. 
Bring it all together
5
  • Remove risotto from oven and stir through the brie until melted. 
  • Stir through a splash of water to loosen risotto if needed.
Finish & serve
6
  • Divide brie and bacon risotto between bowls. Top with caramelised onion and rocket leaves. Drizzle balsamic vinegar over the rocket. 
  • Sprinkle parmesan cheese. Enjoy!
