Method

  1. Melt a knob of butter in a wide shallow pan then cook the onion and garlic until softened. Add the cauliflower and fennel and cook for 2-3 minutes.
  2. Add the rice and turn so it gets coated in the butter. Tip in the wine and stir until absorbed. Gradually add the stock, stirring until you have a creamy risotto with a little bite. Stir in the parsley with another knob of butter and season

    Absolutely delicious. Fennel and cauliflower mix is superb. Try adding just a spoonful of Pernod/Pastis to the wine to really bring out the flavours of the fennel.

    Really quite bland, too boring to bother doing again.
