Risotto is a class of Italian dishes of rice cooked in broth to a creamy consistency. The broth may be meat, fish, or vegetable based. Many types of risotto contain Parmesan cheese, butter, and onion. It is one of the most common ways of cooking rice in Italy.

It also can be made using many kinds of vegetable, meat, fish, seafood and legumes, and different types of wine and cheese may be used. I used vegetables and prawns to be the broth and the rice is Five Sacred Grains. It took much longer to cook but the taste is really fantastic!

Five Sacred Rice has a chewer style than the other rice so how would you cook it tender but not overcooking soft? I did pay a lot of patience, when I smelled the sweet mixed with prawns and rice. Time is worth!
