Creamy Leek Risotto with Rosemary Gremolata
Risotto is such a win win. You can get it on the go while you literally go and do something (anything) else as long as it takes 15 mins or less.
Risotto in less than an hour! Easy enough for weeknight supper; elegant enough to serve guests. The earthy aromatic rosemary pairs well with the mild onion flavour of the leeks. Think rustic, serve it with a lamb roast or baked pumpkin or as pictured with Butternut Pumpkin Puree.
