Rev. Peanut's Sparrow & Goose Risotto

Sparrow & Goose Risotto

Necessary Items:

2 knobs of butter (not a medical condition)

A chilli, but not a hot one. Quite delicate flavours, you see

A bunch of asparagus chopped in whatever fancy shapes you enjoy

1 medium onion

A cup or so of rice. Arborio rice, I believe is best for risotto

Some chicken or vegetable stock, depending on whether you are a chicken or a vegetable

The citrus life-blood squeezed from half a murdered lemon

A splash of white wine

A splash of parmesan

Some Herbie's Salt & Pepper

How To Do It:

Dice the onion and lightly sautee with one of your knobs

Add the rice and chilli and stir it about a bit. Cook for a couple of minutes

Add the splash of wine and the lemming juice and stir until absorbed

Gradually add stock and keep stirring until absorbed. Keep doing this for about 15 minutes

Meanwhile, in a conveniently placed but separate saucepan, bring some water to the boil

When it's boiling, chuck in the asparagus

Strain them into a sieve after about 30 seconds and refresh under cold running water

Chuck 'em into the rice, add your other knob and stir it about again

Pour into a serving bowl

Sprinkle with faerie dust and parmesan and salt 'n' pepper and serve to your eagerly waiting guests

Punch any guest who looks like they may not be enjoying it
