Ingredients

2 servings

150gchorizo

1 Tbspnduja

200gcherry tomatoes

1chicken stock cube

1 tspsweet smoked paprika

1 pinchsea salt flakes

2 Tbspparmesan grated

2 Tbspcottage cheese

Instructions

Step 1

Place a non-stick frying pan on medium heat and add in a drizzle of olive oil.

Step 2

Add in your chopped garlic, onions, and chorizo. Fry and stir for 5 minutes until the onion begins to soften and turn a golden red colour.

Step 3

Pour in your arborio rice and fry for a few minutes, stirring frequently.

Step 4

Add in your 'nduja, stock cube, and cherry tomatoes.

Step 5

Then add hot water to your rice in 100ml increments, stirring constantly and allowing liquid to absorb fully before adding more, until rice is al dente and surrounded by fluid, not-too-thick creamy, it should take around 25–30 minutes. It should take 2–3 minutes for each addition to be absorbed; if things are moving faster than this, reduce heat to medium-low.

Step 6

Once your risotto is cooked, sprinkle in your paprika, pepper, and salt if needed! Season to taste!

Step 7

Lastly, add in your parmesan and cottage cheese. Stir until well combined and then serve up with more parmesan and enjoy!
