well, the big desert in Thailand is sticky rice and mango, so why not do a risotto with half water/half coconut milk and then add diced mango (or maybe papaya) right at the end.

good call. hmm... i wonder if coconut milk would be a good addition to butternut/kabocha squash risotto.

I wouldn't put it in a savoury risotto I think. I know there's the Thai curry influence but that's taking fusion food a step too far down the blech road.

I've had a sweet risotto conversation before, was it with you Lauren?

also - Brulee or caramel topping, hmmmmm

no, i don't think it was with me. i'd be more than happy to discuss it in the future, though.

i agree that a squash/coconut milk risotto is shaky ground. as the lemon and green apple risottos were savoury, i think my mind is running on that track. i'm tempted to experiment, but some things might be better left alone.

ok, we'll discuss it, on the 29th

I mentioned apple risotto a few months ago, but still haven't tried it. I need to give it a shot.

mine turned out really well. it was from mario batali's simple italian food, aka the book of genius.

I'm really loving risotto at the moment so this fruit risotto you speak of is the natural progression surely!

doesn't sweet risotto = rice pudding?

― bham, Thursday, 23 December 2004 17:12 (nineteen years ago) link

not if you use something other than cream/milk

did the savory apple risotto have sage in it?

eleven years pass...

Good pork sausages with sage and apple risotto!
