Quick Meal
Great to have in the freezer as a stand-by meal. Small portion for two but I bulk it up with frozen peas and edamame beans, and top with grated parmesan.
Nice but …
I do keep buying this as it’s a good back up in the freezer. That said it’s such a small portion that I serve it with extra asparagus, baked Cherry tomatoes and a salmon fillet - I may as well just cook the risotto from scratch too. There does seem to be loads of cheese - too much really (and I love cheese!). I think it needs more rice.
Yum yum yum
Sooooo quick to microwave & produces a silky, cheesy risotto with good quality & sized asparagus pieces. Provides 2 small portions to add to a main meal or 2 starters which would be nice with extra Parmesan grated onto the top - I wish the pack was bigger. I trusted the reviews on this & they werent wrong. Im tempted to buy the mushroom version but the reviews arent so good.
Crisp asparagus
I thought there was going to be way to much sauce but after a bit of simmering it absorbed into the rice to give a lovely texture and no mushy rice. Asparagus was fresh and tasty. The only down is it is too salty, and for me, a bit heavy on the onion. Can't have been too bad though, as I ate the whole packet! It would only serve 2 as a side dish
oh dear - this was horrid
I simply dont get the good reviews, mushy, salty and tiny. The asparagus was crisp thats about all I have to say in its favour
Really really good
So easy to cook and tastes very good
