Red Wine Risotto | Maggie Beer | #cookwithmaggie

This red wine risotto is a wonderful savoury dish that can be eaten simply garnished with some fresh basil and of course a luscious flourish of extra virgin olive oil or a side to your favourite protein. It's also an adaptation of the dish I recently cooked with the lovely Kurt Fearnley. I hope you enjoy it.
