Method

  1. On a moderate heat, add the oil and butter to a large saute pan, add the onion and fry 2-3 mins, add the sweet potato, garlic, smoked paprika and gently fry for 5 mins, gently stirring so that it doesn't stick
  2. Add the rice to the pan and stir in, add the vermouth and cook for a further minute uncovered
  3. Add a cupful of the hot stock, reduce to gentle heat and cover, once the stock has absorbed add a cup more and repeat until its nearly all gone, gently stirring here and there, test a spoonful, add more stock if not cooked through and repeat as necessary, should take about 25-30 minutes
  4. Remove from the heat and add the blue cheese, grate over as much parmesan as liked, season to taste and serve immediately

    Tried this last week, very easy to make and really tasty. The combination of blue cheese and sweet potato works really well.

    This is an awful recipe...the recommendation is to cook the sweet potato for 25 to 30 minutes. It doesn't cook through in that time, resulting in having to cook the rice for longer. This leaves you with wallpaper paste, half cooked sweet potato and an empty belly. I wouldn't bother
