The Cosmo Kitchen

Brown Rice Risotto with Chicken and Mushroom Italian cuisine is not just about pasta and pizza, it's also about Risotto and Polenta. Well, Polenta I haven’t explored yet but wish to do that soon too.😊 Risotto is one of their staple dishes, just like paella for Spain or khichdi for us. It wouldn’t be wrong if I say, it's an Italian version of our very humble khichdi.   A simple one-pot meal with mild flavors but bountiful of taste. My style of cooking is often inspired however, I like to give it my own version and touch. I do like to explore new ingredients and bring out unique flavors but at the same time, I also vouch for local ingredients. Risotto has that creamier texture and is authentically made with Arborio, but since Arborio isn’t readily available in India, I experimented with the dish with brown rice, and well the taste and texture were pretty close and we enjoyed it thoroughly.
