Brie and Bacon Risotto (Recipe 8)

Ingredients

150g bacon

1 onion (finely chopped)

180g risotto rice

1 chicken or vegetable stock cube, dissolved in 500ml boiled water

60g brie

Cranberry sauce (optional)

Method

1. Chop the bacon into small pieces.
2. Fry the bacon in a pan. Add the chopped onion and leave to soften. Add the rice and stir well.
3. When the rice starts to go clear, add half the stock. Leave the rice to cook and absorb the liquid. Then keep adding the remaining stock a little at a time until it reaches the desired texture.
4. Chop the brie and stir through until it is mostly melted.
5. Add a dollop of cranberry sauce on top if you’d like, and serve!
