Leftovers!

Using almost all the leftovers, I cooked a nice (purple) risotto today. And because a friend of mine asked for the recipe, we keep it in the new year's eve style.

You start with sauteing an union, mushrooms and some garlic. Add rice (I don't use special risotto rice, but normal brown rice) and cook until the rice squeecks. Puree two boiled red beets with some vegetable stock until you have about one liter of mixture. Silence the squeecking rice with the mixture, but add little bits at the time and keep on stirring. The risotto is done when the rice is cooked. Chop a red beetroot and heat with the risotto. Add a splash of cream if wanted.

To serve, I use a bit of arugola, some grated cheese and a thin pesto.

(Originally the recipe is from McDonald's Kitchen, but I've absolutely know idea if my version still resembles his.)
