Uni , I added all the eggs instead of separating the whites out and beating them and folding in later.  This would make the difference.  
Will try again.  Love the thin slice of beetroot cooked in the blini.

Amy, i love leeks.

You can use leeks to replace onions.

I like the sound of chicken and leek risotto Hally. Do you have a recipe or do you just make it up? I have plenty of leeks so I can make some chicken and leek pies too :)

Now I need to go and buy chicken ;D

Now I need to go and buy chicken ;D

I use a version of cookies risotto on here, cookies 1st ine, my version 2nd one
I made Bacon, leek and tomato risotto. I only made enough for the 3 of us, although it may feed 4 small eaters. (we're hungry folks). 
Bacon, Leek and Tomato Risotto
3 cups water
3 good teaspoons vegie stock
3 rashers of bacon
1 leek
1 clove garlic
200g arborio rice
1/4 cup white wine (I used verjuice)
125g small cherry tomatoes, halved
45g olive
1/4 cup parmesan
Grate the parmesan for 3 seconds on speed 9.
Place garlic clove into TM bowl and chop for 5 seconds on speed 7
Chop white part of leek and place in the bowl with the garlic and sliced bacon and oil. 2 minutes, 100ospeed 1.
Add rice and wine. Cook 2 minutes at 100o reverse speed soft.
Add stock and water, cook for 7 minutes 100oReverse, speed soft.
Add the halved tomatoes and cook a further 10 minutes as above. Place in thermoserver, stir through the parmesan and let sit for 5 minutes. 

Made this again today.

Slightly different
1 garlic
2 spring onions
1 cooked chicken breast (as it was a left over)
6 swiss mushrooms
1 leek
2tsp veg stock
1tsp chcken stock paste
Handful of baby spinach
30g oil
3 cups water
White wine
230g rice
Parnesan cheese to taste


Found with the extra rice it was not runny at all, but still tasted great

My little blind maltese / poodle is eternally hungry and would wolf the whole lot down...well he'd have a good go at it. What sort of dog have you got SJ? Is it one container per day?
