Inspired by a delicious sample of Welsh lamb at Taste of London, back home, I re-create one of their summer recipes. It is slightly amended as I didn't have all the ingredients it will feed 2 adults and 2 "smaller people".
Risotto is both a dish and a technique for cooking rice. A special type of rice, a rice with a high amount of starch which give the dish its creamy texture. Unusually this dish is oven baked however the rice needs to be started on the hob, in a small amount of oil. The oil coats the rice and prevents the starch to spill out and turn the dish into a "mush". Make sure that the lamb is cut into small bits, otherwise you might get a couple of complaints...........
