Here I am again with my favourite ingredient - CHORIZO! I think I should just move to Spain or Portugal! :D I'd be able to dine on Chorizo ALL DAY! Okay back to reality! This thermomix chorizo mushroom spiced risotto is a simple, delicious dish that will fill up the family.
IF and I say this in the most loose term - IF you have any left overs make them into Arancini balls.
The curry blend and the spices of the chorizo with a hint of tomato just makes this dish so wonderfully balanced! Remember you can adjust the "hotness" of the dish for those that like a little hit with adding more curry blend.
