  An unusual topping for a risotto but it did work well.

  An enjoyable meal. A simple, easy ad quick risotto. I would make this again as a mid-week meal.

  Simple, but lovely. My local shop had run out of parsley so I used coriander, it was delicious.

  Lovely recipe, the feta/olive covering really compliments the risotto.

  Loved the tastes. Didn't use quite as much courgette, just one per 200 g of risotto. I used about 600 ml of stock and cooked about 20 minutes. I think it depends on what rice you use, but my portions were probably more suitable for 2 people instead of 4.

  used two large courgettes, no olives, 1 tspn of dried parsley - could have added more. added extra stock as cooking, so used over a litre, but absorbed all. and by mistake - had no peas so used mixed frozen veg - carrots peas sweetcorn, LOVELY! really really tasty. made four good sized portions. will make again.

  Well now, what an unusual combination! But very, very fresh and tasty. I had run out of onions so used shallots instead - which certainly didnt do any harm. Also, there's no mention of seasoning in the recipe and as I was using very low salt stock, I added a little salt and some freshly ground pepper to the rice. Simple and delicious.

  LOVE this recipe. Going to add some brocolli instead of peas tonight and see how that goes. Guilt free risotto :)

  Made this the other night, was lovely! Quite plain if you get a mouthful without the topping but if you stir it in together it's gorgeous!
