There's something about the weekend, its a time to catch your breath after a busy week, time to chill out. I thought it would be fun to make a few wishes as I slowly woke up on a grey wet morning. 1. A lie in bed with a cup of tea, 2. A lovely cooked breakfast, 3. Sitting by a roaring fire reading a good book, 4. A glass of wine watching a movie. 5. A Chicken & chorizo risotto, followed by a piece of sticky chocolate brownie. Now I can report that all of my wishes were granted, what a great day.

CHICKEN & CHORIZO RISOTTO

Melt 100g butter in a non stick frying pan, add a finely chopped shallot & 1 clove of garlic, sauté till golden, add 150g Arborio risotto rice stir till coated in the butter, let the rice slightly burst (2 mins) to allow the fluids to be absorbed & the starch from the rice is released. Add a good glug of either white wine or in my case some vermouth, wait till its absorbed. Have a pan with 750ml of chicken stock ready, add a ladle of stock to the pan, stir & let it be absorbed before adding the next ladle full, it may not need all the stock or it may need a little extra stock, its always different. Mean while fry 2 chicken breasts cubed, & some sliced chorizo. When the risotto is almost ready add the chicken & chorizo, stir in some chopped parsley.
