Cooking steps

Prep Your Veg
1
  • Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
  • Dilute the stock in 500ml (double for 4p) boiling water.
  • Halve, peel and thinly slice the onion.
  • Quarter the mushrooms.
Fry the Chorizo
2
  • Place a large, wide-bottomed ovenproof pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil
  • When the oil is hot, add the onion, mushrooms and chorizo.
  • Cook, stirring occasionally, 4-5 mins. 

TIP: If you don't have an ovenproof pan use a normal one and transfer the risotto to an ovenproof dish before placing it in the oven.

Add the Rice
3
  • Add the risotto rice, ½ tsp salt and half the Italian herbs (double both for 4p) to the pan.
  • Cook, stirring, until the edges of the rice are translucent, 1-2 mins.
Bake the Risotto
4
  • Add the warm stock and stir well to combine.
  • Bring back up to the boil then pop a lid on the pan (or cover with foil).
  • Bake in the oven until the rice is cooked and the water has been absorbed, 30-35 mins.
Finishing Touches
5
  • When the risotto is cooked, remove it from the oven and mix in a knob of butter if you have any. 
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Roughly tear half the basil leaves (double for 4p).

TIP: Add a splash of water if needed.

Serve and Enjoy
6
