This simple risotto recipe makes a great family meal. In this video, I flavour it with chorizo and vegetables including leek, spinach and peas but there are endless variations. Other ingredients that work well include mushroom, butternut squash, green beans and asparagus. Meat is only optional – vegetarian risotto is just as delicious.

See below for the ingredients used in this video. Happy cooking!
