Tomato STOCK BASE
Boil the kettle. To a pan, add the Italian seasoning, diluting it with 400ml [800ml]|#7DA0D7 of boiling water. Stir in the cooked chopped Tomato and set aside.
LOADED RISOTTO
Place a pot over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry ½ the chorizo and the Onion until golden, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the Tomato paste and the risotto rice. Fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes (shifting constantly). Reduce the heat to medium, add a ladleful of the tomato stock, and allow it to be absorbed by gently simmering (stirring often). Only add the next ladle of tomato stock when the previous one is fully absorbed. Repeat this process until the rice is cooked al dente, 20-25 minutes.
EXTRA TANGY
Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the Tomato until charred, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). In the final 1-2 minutes, add the remaining chorizo. Season, cover, and set aside.
HERBY GOAT’S CHEESE
Place the basil on a chopping board, and spread out in a single layer. Place the goat’s cheese rounds on the basil and gently coat both sides.
FINISHING TOUCHES
When the risotto is done, remove from the heat and stir through the crème fraîche, and seasoning. Loosen with a splash of warm water if too thick.
DIG IN
