Risotto makes for a nice Sunday lunch. It takes a bit of time to prepare, but it's so worth it.
This week's special in our house is Lemon Zucchini Risotto, topped with a poached egg. Courtesy of Mark Bittman's "Food Matters" cookbook. That makes it a vegetarian dish as well! (Not trying to become a vegetarian here...just trying new recipes. And yes, I'm aware that it's vegetarian but not vegan)
Lots of fresh springtime flavors: Fresh lemon juice, arborio rice, grated zucchini, onion and fresh basil, stirred by Hubby.
Plus Poaching eggs, once a challenge for our cook but now easy.
equals Risotto in a bowl, crowned by the egg:
Yields: Two happy adults, who cleaned their plates and briefly considered licking the bowl. Well, I did anyway!
