Serves 4 (8 for starter)

Preparation time:  10 minutes

Cooking time: 20 minutes

Ingredients

1.5 litres of chicken or vegetable stock

2 tbsp olive oil

75g butter

2 shallots, peeled & chopped

350g risotto rice

200ml red wine (full-bodied works best)

Salt & freshly ground black pepper

2 oranges, zest only

200g Gorgonzola

100g Parmesan cheese, grated plus extra to serve

100g crushed walnuts

Preparation method

1.  In a large pan bring the stock to the boil.

2.  Place a large frying pan over a medium heat; add the oil and half of the butter.  When the butter has melted gently cook the shallots for 3 minutes or until softened.  Now add the rice and stir through until fully coated with oil and butter.

3.  Increase the heat to full and add the red wine.  Stir continuously until the wine has been fully absorbed.  Now gradually add the stock a ladleful at a time.  When a ladleful has been absorbed add the next, don’t stop stirring the risotto.

4.  After 14 minutes of stirring add the orange zest, another ladleful of stock and crumble in the Gorgonzola and stir through. Season to taste!

5.  When the rice is cooked add the remaining butter and the Parmesan cheese.  Stir through and serve with extra Parmesan and crushed walnuts.  Enjoy!
