It’s cold outside. Let’s just make a bowl of pasta and be done with it. This recipe is pretty easy and super tasty, you could use cheddar if you don’t have parmesan and I can use any mushrooms you like.

Cheddar and Leek Risotto
Risotto is a lovely, comforting dish to cook in colder months. This one is a little bit ‘Nigel Slater’ inspired, using mostly traditionally British ingredients such as onions, leeks, cheddar and chives for a lovely creamy risotto.

You can use your favourite type of cheese, favourite bread and favourite sauce, this meal is about making something delicious that you love. The cayenne pepper adds a hitContinue reading “The Ultimate Cheese Toastie with Sweet Chilli Sauce”
