Risotto of leek, mushroom, pea, spinach - Relish Food Store AUD14

I was hungry, so I went for a hearty risotto. It was very tasty, and obviously made with a good stock.

 

I would have been happy to have just a leek and mushroom risotto. Julia thought that the peas seemed to detract from the rich, silkiness of the rice, and I agreed.

 

In that old-skool way, the waitress asked if I'd like cracked pepper on it, even before I had a chance to taste it :)

 

Just as well I declined. The seasoning was fine just as it was.

A champion of consistently high-quality food that keeps everyone from fussy five-year-olds and food-trendy mums to keep-it-plain-and-simple grandmas happy. Love the salmon, dill and potato cakes, egg and bacon pie and baked lemon cheesecake.
