About Beetroot Risotto With Ricotta & Parmesan
A few evenings ago, I made this lovely beet risotto.
After cooking, when the risotto was done, I added ricotta & parmesan through the risotto, off the fire. That gives a rose bubblegum colour to the risotto & it doesn't look nice but its taste is wonderful!!! So, give it a try!!!
