Risotto easy and fast: Cooking in Skane, Sweden

With cold weather comes coughs, sneezes and many times when kids get cold they are not in food mood. So, as a mother you have to think of easy food they can appreciate.
This I have found out this week. Risotto, velvety, easy and tasty to appeal.

Spinach Risotto
for 3 people 200g of arborio Italian rice which you can find easily in imported food department. 1/2 a litter of broth will do, onion,cubed frozen spinach have worked for me, parmesan and black pepper.

Steps :
cook onion with olive oil in a pan, add rice toast it, add 1/3 of broth mix, cook until it is absorbed, add more broth, during the second add of broth I put in the spinach, let that absorb as well and then add the last part of broth and cook slowly till its absorbed but not all. You can taste the rice if its not cooked you can add boiling water and this helps you to know the broth dose for next time you cook your risotto. At the end add the parmesan and a little butter. Butter adds to smoothness.
I had a little left over of cooking cream in the fridge which I substituted the butter with and it was nice, very nice. Fold in with parmesan and serve. Great for kids who are un well and lost appetite. Try it .
