The risotto method is a technique that involves stirring hot stock into the uncooked rice a ladleful at a time and cooking slowly as the stock is absorbed. This releases the rice's starches, making a creamy, velvety dish without using any cream. The flavors of dried and fresh mushrooms carry through in this proper Italian risotto, made from plump Arborio rice, which absorbs plenty of mushroom stock until it's meltingly tender on the outside but still sturdy within. Roast on bottom rack, tossing halfway through, until deeply golden brown and crisped,.

Instructions to make Risotto with Mushrooms & Parmesan:

1. Taking a large frying pan or wok, place it on a high heat and add the oil or spray with oil.  Throw in the onion, garlic and mushrooms, turn down the heat and leave to soften for about 10 - 15 mins.  Once softened add the risotto rice, quickly stir for about a minute so the heat cracks open the grains.
2. Once the rice grains have been heated add the white wine to the mushrooms.  On a medium heat keep stirring well until the liquid has been absorbed by the grains.  Next add a ladle of stock.  You need to keep adding the stock stirring well each time so it doesn't stick.  It takes about 20 - 25 minutes to add all the stock depending on your hob.
3. As you stir try to press down on the grains, this helps them absorb more fluid and expel the sticky starch.
Add the paprika, salt and pepper and stir well, once all the stock has been absorbed you need to taste the grains.  If they are still a little grainy, you need to add some more hot water to the rice.  Whilst it is finally cooking, grate the cheese.  There isn't an exact time for cooking risotto, it depends on many factors
4. The best way is to keep tasting, when it is slightly firm to bite but no grains inside its ready!
When it is ready add the cheese stir well, then throw in  the basil and spinach. Stir again!
5. Turn off the heat and place a lid onto the pan.  Leave it to steam and rest for 2 minutes.
6. That's is its ready to plate up.

Foods That Make You Happy

Many of us have been taught to believe that comfort foods are bad and should be avoided. If your comfort food is candy or junk food this might be true. Otherwise, comfort foods may be really nutritious and good for you. There are some foods that, when you consume them, could boost your mood. When you feel a little down and are in need of an emotional boost, test out a few of these.

Eggs, believe it or not, can be actually great at beating back depression. You need to see to it, though, that what you make includes the egg yolk. The egg yolk is the part of the egg that is the most important in terms of helping elevate your mood. Eggs, especially the egg yolks, are full of B vitamins. These B vitamins are fantastic for helping to elevate your mood. This is because they help in bettering the function of your neural transmitters, the parts of your brain that affect your mood. Try consuming a few eggs to cheer up!

Make a few trail mix of nuts or seeds. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, etcetera are all good for improving your mood. This is because these foods are loaded with magnesium, which helps to raise serotonin production. Serotonin is the “feel good” chemical that tells your brain how you feel at all times. The more of this chemical in your brain, the more pleasant you’ll feel. Not just that, nuts, in particular, are a terrific protein source.

If you want to fight depression, you should eat some cold water fish. Salmon, herring, tuna fish, mackerel, trout, etc, they’re all loaded with omega-3s and DHA. These are two substances that increase the quality and function of the gray matter in your brain. It’s true: consuming a tuna fish sandwich can actually help you overcome depression.

It’s not difficult to drive away your bad mood when you consume grains. Quinoa, millet, teff and barley are all really wonderful for helping boost your happiness levels. They fill you up better and that can help elevate your moods also. Feeling famished can really make you feel terrible! The reason these grains are so wonderful for your mood is that they are not hard to digest. These foods are easier to digest than others which helps kick start a rise in your glucose levels which in turn brings up your mood to a happier place.

Green tea is really good for your mood. You were just anticipating to read that here, weren’t you? Green tea is loaded with a particular amino acid referred to as L-theanine. Studies have found that this amino acid basically induces brain waves. This helps sharpen your mental energy while at the same time relaxing the rest of your body. You knew green tea could help you be healthier. Now you are aware that green tea helps you to raise your moods also!

Now you realize that junk food isn’t necessarily what you have to eat when you are wanting to help your moods get better. Try several of these instead!
