This week's recipe:
Dressy Pasta 'Risotto'
thought the bag of pasta was elbow ones but turned out to be spiral!
used fish stock instead of chicken
served with prawns with yellow capsicum, mushrooms with spinach
in mustard sauce (own concoction!)
my 'risotto' had excess liquid which I had to dump some
but had enough to 'slurp' when the pasta was gone!
(cos it was so darn good!)
I bet none of the other members got to slurp this risotto!
but then again I could have done something wrong with this recipe.
Dorie said this was supposed to be a
dressy macaroni and cheese;
I guess the dressy part being mascarpone ~ 3.5 tablespoons of it!

Nice tweaks, Emily! Perfect side for your shrimp dish :)
ReplyDeleteHappy new year Emily! This risotto looks great!
ReplyDeleteGreat post! Happy new year!
ReplyDeleteI never have enough fish stock on hand! good for you! we should decide on a couple catch-up recipes to tackle this month Emily!
ReplyDeleteMine was almost slurpable! I had to leave it simmering for a little longer with the cream and it thickened up nicely.
ReplyDeleteNice idea to use fish sauce - I bet some shell fish would have been a nice finishing touch inside of this dish, as well!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea with fish stock… now you got my wheels turning. I might make mine with scallops or shrimp on top next time.
ReplyDeleteI agree, great with a fish stock. We loved the whole easy way of cooking this recipe, very similar to cooking risotto, which we love. Happy New Y.ear
ReplyDeleteSlurping cheesy creamy sauce is good! Your shell fish creation sounds great also -
ReplyDeleteNice job, Emily! Perfect to serve with your shrimp! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteInteresting idea to make it with fish stock! Sounds like it would go great with the shrimp entree. Very nice!
ReplyDeleteMy pasta was a little runny but good. Your risotto looks delicious. Great job:) Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fabulous meal, Emily! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteLOL - I didn't get to slurp my pasta but it sounds delish. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteI had excess moisture too! I drained a little and it was all good. Like what you did with yours Emily.
ReplyDeleteReally interesting interpretation! I love Shrimp!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, Emily!
Wow, delicious! Slurp on the gravy sounds good!
ReplyDeleteI had extra liquid leftover as well which I just drained off and carried on. I assumed that it was because my pasta was a different shape and size from Dorie's.
ReplyDeleteOh, I like your idea of the fish stock, that would be tasty!! Looks delicious! Happy New Year
ReplyDeleteWow- it looks amazing Emily ! I wish I had enough of the liquid to slurp. Thankfully mine was more creamy than it showed up as in the picture but I will still add a bit more cream next time. Great pairing with the prawns- YUM !
ReplyDeleteHi Emily! Happy New Year! It looks really nice and what about your side dish? Are you going to post a recipe for that? It sounds delicious!!
ReplyDeleteI would have liked some 'slurp' in mine. Was a little dry, but very tasty.
ReplyDeleteI like your tweaks. I bet it was good with the fish stock. I never would have thought of that.
