With the last vegetables left in the garden today, I prepared a good risotto. Easy and quick, it is really tasty. I don’t like risotto too dry.
Vegetable risotto is prepared in very little time. I chose zucchini and bell peppers, but you can use the ones you like best. I used saffron to give the dish that extra touch, but it can easily be omitted.
