On this occasion I’ve not used any herbs apart from the parsley garnish as I had a request for a “herb-free” day! This recipe can also easily be extended, for example by adding peas, carrots or many other vegetables and/or some grated hard cheese but, if the latter, cut back on the Parmesan. As part of my “Waste not, want not” philosophy, I often incorporate a variety of ingredients with all my “Use up” recipes. Please note that we don’t like our risottos very “sloppy”: some cooks might wish to increase the liquid content. #mycookbook#WastenotWantnot

6. 1 red pepper, deseeded and in short, thin slices

8. 250 ml dry white wine
9. 1 l chicken stock (I used 2 Knorr stock pots)

11. 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
12. 75 g mascarpone
13. 75 g Parmesan cheese, grated

Instructions to make to make Use-up Gammon, Chestnut Mushroom & Mascarpone Risotto

1. Heat oil in a large frying or sauté pan and gently fry the onions on a medium-high heat for 4 minutes, stirring only to avoid sticking.
2. Add the mushrooms, garlic and pepper and fry for a further 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Stir in the rice and cook for a further minute. Then increase the heat to high.
4. Add the wine, allow a couple of minutes for the alcohol to mostly evaporate and then add the stock, a little (say 100 ml at a time) at a time, constantly stirring, and wait for that to be absorbed before adding more, stirring continuously. It should basically be at the boil/fast simmer and if the liquid is added judiciously it should take around 15 minutes, by which time the rice should be almost cooked. Do add a little more liquid if it looks like going dry - but only add a little at a time.
5. Add the ham, mustard, mascarpone and Parmesan. Continue cooking, thoroughly and continuously but gently stirring, for just a few more minutes until the rice is properly cooked. Season to taste.
6. Serve immediately onto warmed plates or bowls and garnish with the parsley.
