Tips/Hints:

I found that you needed to cut the apple up or blitz in the TMX to smaller pieces than quarters.
I only used 50g raw sugar for a half quantity of the dish and it was plenty.

This recipe is from "A Taste of Vegetarian".

cera - I totally just stuffed this up, I didn't remove the apple and I didn't cook the apple on reverse so it's stewed apple risotto but it still tastes really nice lol!

AliRo - yeah, I've made this several times and love it.  I blitz up the apple into chunky-ish pieces before cooking. I also use 75% juice, 25% water so it's not quite so sweet.  And yes, less sugar.  In fact, I only put sugar in when cooking the apple and that's it.

Thanks cookie1 ( need to put the 1 in to avoid confusion) - really does sound delish. 

I will look at a savoury version to go with my bl**k pudding.

We had this last night too. I put a review in the review section and will put a copy of yours there too. I served it with the left over mascarpone I had.

Just found this recipe and can't wait to try it. I love rice pudding and have never thought of making a dessert risotto. Sounds yummy.
