Cooking Steps

Roast the sweet potato
1

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Cut sweet potato into bite-sized chunks. • Place sweet potato on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, then bake until tender, 20-25 minutes.

Get prepped
2

• While the sweet potato is roasting, finely chop brown onion. • Finely chop garlic. • Pick thyme leaves.

Start the risotto
3

In a medium frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook diced bacon with onion, stirring, until softened, 5-6 minutes. Add the garlic and thyme and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add the arborio rice and stir to coat. Add the water and vegetable stock pot and bring to the boil. • Remove from the heat and transfer the risotto to a medium baking dish. Cover tightly with foil and bake in the oven until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is 'al dente', 24-28 minutes. TIP: 'Al dente' rice is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.

Cook the veggies
4

• When the risotto has 15 minutes cook time left, roughly chop silverbeet. • Return frying pan to high heat with a drizzle of olive oil and half the butter. • Add sliced mushrooms and cook, stirring, until well browned, 5-6 minutes. • Add silverbeet and cook until wilted, 1-2 minutes. Season to taste.

Finish the risotto
5

• Remove risotto from the oven. Add a splash of water to loosen the risotto. • Gently stir in roasted sweet potato, mushrooms and silverbeet. Season to taste.

Finish & serve
6

Divide the roasted sweet potato, bacon and mushroom risotto between bowls. Sprinkled with the flaked almonds and reserved Parmesan cheese to serve. Enjoy!
