Ingredients

For the Risotto

1.1 litres/2 pints chicken or vegetable stock

2 tbsp olive oil

1 knob of butter

1 leek, finely sliced

½ - 1 tsp chilli flakes

150g/6 oz mixed mushrooms, roughly chopped

400g/14 oz risotto rice

2 glasses of dry white wine

150g/6 oz spinach, roughly chopped

Freshly ground salt & pepper

70g/2 ½ oz butter

115g/4oz freshly grated parmesan cheese

Method

1.    To make the risotto, heat the stock in a pan.  Put the olive oil and butter into another pan and leek and chilli flakes, fry on a low heat until softened.

2.    Add the mushrooms and cook for a further 2-3 minutes and then add the rice and turn up the heat.

3.    When the rice is slightly translucent add the wine and keep stirring until it has cooked into the rice.

4.    Add the first ladle of stock and reduce the heat to a simmer.  Keep adding the ladlefuls of stock gradually allowing each ladleful to be absorbed before adding the next.  This should take around 15 minutes.  Season to taste.

5.    Remove from the heat and add the spinach, butter and parmesan, stir well.  Place the lid on the pan and allow to rest for 2 minutes.

6.    Serve the risotto in a serving bowl, enjoy!
