Risotto verde with cherry tomatoes


This recipe is perfect for a supper in the summer. The parmesan makes it a little heavy. That's why I reduced the amount of the original recipe. It should be better now.
I really like that the preparations for this risotto are quite simple. The most work you have is the cutting of the scallions, broccoli and sugar snaps.

As I started to eat I got the idea to leave the tomatoes on the branch. It would have looked great on the photo. Of cause that's just for the aesthetics.

Apropos aesthetics, it's quite annoying that I always have to make the picture before I can actually eat what I made. It's alright if it's something you eat cold or lukewarm. Like cupcakes, cake, salads and so on. But a supper that should be eaten hot or at least warm? Just annoying.
I am doing this out of my own free will, so I really shouldn't complain. Especially because I like to have these picture of my dishes.
So it's not all bad.
