Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. • Cook plant-based bacon bits, stirring, until starting to brown, 3-4 minutes.
• Add sliced mushrooms to the pan and cook, stirring, until browned and softened, 6-8 minutes.
• Stir in garlic & herb seasoning and arborio rice and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Stir in the water and vegetable stock powder, then bring to the boil.
• Transfer risotto to a baking dish. Cover tightly with foil. Bake until liquid is absorbed and rice is 'al dente', 24-28 minutes. • Remove risotto from oven and stir through the plant-based butter. • Stir through a splash of water to loosen risotto if needed. Season to taste.
• When risotto had 5 minutes remaining, cut tomato into thin wedges. • In a medium bowl, combine mixed salad leaves, tomato, a drizzle of olive oil and of the balsamic vinegar. Season to taste.
• Divide bacon and mushroom risotto between bowls. • Sprinkle over chilli flakes (if using). Tear over parsley. • Serve with tomato salad. Enjoy!
