Beef 'Risotto' with basil, peas and parmesan cheese

My pleasure Astarra my Dad is quite chuffed that people like this one as it is one of the dishes he cooked for us regularly when we were growing up:)

Finally made this for dinner tonight. We loved it. Thanks Jam, will be a regular in our house. I used basmati rice as recipe asks for long grain. Is that right, or should I have used risotto (arborio) rice?

i havent read the recipe but if its a risotto i would have used the arborio rice

This is one of my DS favourite  recipes.I just use long grain rice

[Jamberie]

I normally use aborio for risotto too Uni, but regular long grain works surprisingly well with this one (or maybe that's just because it's what I'm used too!)...also a handy one for when we run out of aborio

I made this tonight with chicken mince instead of beef mince - it was delicious!
The whole family enjoyed it and I will definitely make it again.
Thanks for the recipe.

[Jamberie]

Just don't call it risotto you could try Beef & Rice

Confused by the speeds :/ what is etc. I'm on TT.

  is the slow speed before 1. Just make sure that your risotto is moving round.
