Risotto With Roasted Shallots, Portabella, Radicchio and Parmesa image

This is my favorite risotto recipe, a very earthy, filling dish that works well as a meal itself, but also great as an opening dish or heavy side. Please don't be put off by the ingredients or seemingly lengthy instructions, it is well worth the effort! Please note that the ingredients are key to the total taste of this dish. Try as is before making substitutions, I'm sure you won't be disappointed!
