That's how I ended up picking this week's recipe, Leek, Bacon, and Pea Risotto. Those reviews were right.
This was soooooooooo good. I admit that I was worried when I didn't see garlic on the ingredient list. Garlic makes everything taste great right?
And I confess that I really wanted to crisp the bacon and take it out so it would stay crispy. But Martha says not to so I didn't. And I was rewarded with smoky, tangy, salt, creamy risotto.
Tonight we are making Risotto Cakes out of the leftovers. Yum!

Very good point. It's not about how it looks, but about how it tastes!
Oh my, that looks so good. I am a fanatic about risotto and this was a great pick. Unfortunately, I am on a serious diet and can't have it yet. So I had to pass up on making it. Sorry. I am making do with looking at everyone's pictures and pretending I have a nice bowl of risotto waiting for me in the kitchen. Enjoy your risotto cakes!
I want to make this...I love leeks. I couldn't find the project for this week so I missed it. I might have to run to the store to pick up some leeks. Your photos are stunning...nice job and nice choice! Hope I'm not too late! :)
Thanks! Ana, I hope you are doing well after you surgery and the diet it entails. We miss having you cook with us! Lyndsey, it's never too late to make a Martha Monday recipe. I'm sometimes weeks late :)
This was delicious! I too was keen to crisp up the bacon but followed the recipe and was pleased that I didn't. And I too check out some of the reviews but I enjoy watching the videos which sometimes come with the recipe - its always very insightful.
Thanks for a great pick!
