Oven Baked Parmesan and Garlic Risotto image

Classic risotto needs constant stirring but this baked version needs hardly any attention as it cooks gently in the oven. To jazz it up a bit: When you add the remaining butter and cheese, stir in some shredded roast chicken. Heat through for 1-2min. Fry 2oz cubed pancetta or smoked streaky bacon with the onion and garlic. Stir in some fresh, chopped basil, thyme or baby spinach before serving.
