  2. Add 120 g Shiitake mushrooms. Stir and cook for a further 4-5 minutes.
  3. Add 150 g Risotto (arborio) rice. Mix it in and cook until it becomes translucent, about 1-2 minutes.
  4. Add 4 sprig Fresh thyme. Add the stock, a little at a time. Mixing it in and waiting for it to absorb. Once it has been absorbed, add a little more stock. Continue to add stock until all of the 700 ml Chicken stock has been absorbed.
  5. Add 115 g Leftover turkey, 1 pinch Sea salt, 1 pinch Ground black pepper, juice of 0.5 Lemon and 30 g Parmesan. Mix it all together and cook for a further 2-3 minutes.

Notes

  • Never rinse the rice for risotto, as it rinses off the starch and that's what makes it nice and creamy.
  • We stirred Parmesan in to our risotto, but feel free to sprinkle loads more on top before serving too.
  • You can also stir through a bit of butter before serving to make it even creamier.
