- 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.

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.
