Dressy Pasta Risotto
Not a very good photo:) |
Dorie says this isn't really a risotto. I guess its called that because the macaroni is cooked in enough broth to mostly absorb into the macaroni instead of the traditional boiling water that is then drained. Fancy mac and cheese is a more accurate description but I like the method and don't object to calling it risotto.
We really enjoyed this. I served it with a salad and bread and it was a delicious dinner. Everyone liked it and the left overs were good the next day too!

I hope your 2014 is off to a good start! Mine is. Our granddaughter made her appearance in the world today! She is beautiful and mama and baby are fine! To double my pleasure I'm staying with Mr. B while his parents are in the hospital. We went shopping for a present and B chose a bib with flowers. He seems as in love as the rest of us.....except he'd really like his mama and dada to come home!

ReplyDeleteThis dish was a hit with most of us - but wow, a new baby beats pasta any day
Yay !!! I have been waiting for the good news :) So glad to hear Mama and daughter are fine - and that Mr B is happy with the new sister. I am certain they will have some fine adventures, as well as that he will delighted when his family is all home. Not that hanging with Grandma is too rough ...I am sure you are duly spoiling him !! And yes, the risotto was a victory in our house as well. My kids had me make more for dinner this evening. Nothing says success like a request for a repeat !
