Method

  • step 1

    Heat the olive oil in a saucepan and sizzle the chorizo for 1 min until some of the oil starts to come out. Add the onion and cook for 5 mins until soft, then add the risotto rice and cook for 1 min. Splash in the vinegar, then add the tomatoes and stir well.

  • step 2

    Gradually add the hot stock, a ladleful at a time – stir the rice until the stock is absorbed, then add the next ladleful. With the last ladleful of stock, add the peas and keep stirring until the rice is cooked. Turn off the heat and stir through the Parmesan and parsley, if using. Serve straight from the pan, with extra Parmesan, if you like.

Fabulous. Very filling.

made this with spicy chorizo, spinach and some extra paprika and a splash of chilli sauce for a kick. It worked beautifully

Best risotto ever. Had this loads of times. I don't follow it strictly as I use less chorizo. Supermarkets don't sell it in this weight so I just use one chorizo sausage worth.

We make risotto maybe 2 times a month but this is one of the best. Followed others in only using half the amount of chorizo and added garlic before adding the rice. I didn't have any cajun seasoning but used mild & smokey bbq seasoning instead. My 10 year old daughter said it was the best…

This was a lovely easy mid week recipe, it does take time stirring but the prep is fairly quick. I only had 285g chorizo as this was a full pack from asda, it is quite a strong chorizo so this was fine in the recipe.
