This classic luxurious risotto dish is perfect for autumn and will leave you happy and satisfied. People think that risotto is time consuming, but it should actually be the opposite.

This classic luxurious risotto dish is perfect for autumn and will leave you happy and satisfied. People think that risotto is time consuming, but it should actually be the opposite. I prefer to use the carnaroli rice as it's more suitable for this dish and has a more robust flavour. A good quality Gorgonzola cheese will make the dish and a bottle of Barbera D'Asti is a great pairing.

Enjoy the weekend!
