Pea & Mushroom Risotto
This, my friends, is the risotto that converted me from a 'can-take-or-leave-risotto' girl to a 'can-eat-risotto-for-breakfast-lunch-and-dinner' girl.
The mighty mushrooms mean you don't really miss the meat (although, this would be amazing with a roast chicken), while the hit of sweet peas and zesty lemon cut through the rich creaminess of the dish. I call it ”mushotto”!
If you want to make it a vegan risotto, just use dairy free crème fraiche. Oatly do an exceptional one – we use it because my Mum is dairy free and I swear you wouldn’t be able to tell. Enjoy!
