Notes
- In case you don't have any Strawberries available, Blueberries will work fantastic to (DIVINE). In the Italian cuisine Risotto with fruit are very popular. I love also Risotto with Pears and walnuts or fresh figs.
- Risotto can be made with any vegetable you like. So have a go, be creative.
- Use fresh herbs to garnish for extra flavor and smell. Fresh Mint or Basil will work fantastic.
