Cooking Steps
1
- Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced.
- Finely chop brown onion (see ingredients), garlic and celery. Thinly slice pear into wedges.
- Roughly chop brie and bacon.
2
- In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook onion, bacon and celery, until starting to brown, 4-5 minutes.
- Add garlic, herb & mushroom seasoning and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
- Add arborio rice and stir to coat. Add the water (for the rice).
- Bring to the boil, then remove from heat.
3
- Transfer risotto to a baking dish.
- Cover tightly with foil and bake until liquid is absorbed and rice is ‘al dente’, 24-28 minutes.
- Wipe out frying pan and return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil.
4
- When risotto has 10 minutes remaining, wash out frying pan and return to medium-high heat with the butter.
- Cook pear, turning occasionally, until softened, 2-3 minutes.
- Reduce heat to medium-low, then carefully add the balsamic vinegar, brown sugar and water (for the pear) and cook until dark and sticky, 3-5 minutes.
5
- Remove risotto from oven and stir through the chopped brie until melted.
- Stir through a splash of water to loosen risotto if needed.
6
- Divide brie and bacon risotto between bowls. Top with caramelised pears and rocket leaves. Drizzle balsamic vinegar over the rocket.
- Sprinkle parmesan cheese and walnuts. Enjoy!
