How to Cook

- Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. (Be careful not to grill by mistake!)
- Remove the film but leave the risotto in its wooden tray*. Place on a baking tray in the centre of the oven and cook for 35 minutes. If using a gas oven, cook for an extra 5 minutes.
- Leave to stand for 2 minutes before serving. Make sure it’s piping hot throughout.
*Our wooden trays are designed for the oven. Just make sure they aren’t placed close to any element or flame.

Something
to drink?
You might ordinarily reach for a bottle of white when chicken is on the menu, but the mushrooms in this dish give it a richness that pairs beautifully with fruity reds. Try a beaujolais or pinot noir.
