Southend’s Jack Monroe has created an “Earthy Red Wine & Mushroom Risotto” that serves one person for 36p. Despite the low price and the name, there isn’t any earth in it….
Still needing easy but comforting food with this cold, I decided to go for carbs and wine and goodness? I?ve never known anyone else to use red wine as a risotto base before ? that?s not to say its not been done, I?ve just not seen it ? but this works beautifully. As far as comfort food goes, I had finished this, from a bowl on the sofa wrapped in a heavy blanket, before I had finished typing the recipe?
See the recipe here.
