Can you guess the hidden ingredient in this risotto? Clue. It’s not truffle oil, peas or even mung beans. This decadent dish uses Chocolate in a Bottle – which comes in both alcoholic and alcohol-free sparkling versions – that brings a subtle sweetness and velvety cocoa-richness to the savoury silkiness of the risotto. Paired with plump Sicilian red prawns, bursts of fresh blueberries, and delicate shavings of dark chocolate, it’s an unexpected harmony of land and sea – indulgent, intriguing, and utterly irresistible…
