you can make your own cheese sauce or buy it if its easier!

i use tagliatelli pasta cos its nice and thick :D
and i just fry onions, garlic, mushrooms, chopped up ham, and put the sauce in with it.
its really simple to be honest but it looks really posh and tastes delish lol

if ur making your own sauce, i just use cheese, butter and milk... dont ask me how much, cos i dont know :rotfl: i just keep adding each one until it gets a nice thickness!
 
can you do that without a cheese sause or change it for something as i cant eat cheese

I would say coq au vin is a lovely meal and you can cook it all in one pot. I always make roast root vegtables as a side dish and its sooo lush, and healthy too.
 
Here ya go :)

I leave the wine out by the way tastes the same. Serves 2


Ingredients

For the risotto
¼ pack fresh flat leaf parsley, finely chopped
25g Parmigiano-Reggiano, grated, plus extra shavings to serve
50g butter
100g Risotto Rice

For the stock
2 tbsp white wine
1 tsp tomato purée
Pinch of saffron strands
1 litre vegetable stock
2 cloves garlic
½ small butternut squash, about 250g-300g, peeled For the risotto
Method

1. For the stock, place the vegetable stock in a large pan with the garlic, saffron, white wine and tomato purée. Bring it to the boil, then simmer for 5-10 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, cut the squash into 1cm dice, then add to the stock. Continue to simmer the stock for about 10 minutes until the squash is just tender. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the squash to a plate and set aside. Then remove and discard the garlic cloves.
3. To make the risotto, melt half the butter in a heavy-based pan, add the rice and stir it well with a wooden spoon on a low heat for 1 minute. Gradually ladle in the hot stock a little at a time, stirring constantly and ensuring that each addition has been fully absorbed by the rice before adding another ladleful.
4. When the rice is just tender, about 15-20 minutes, stir in the cooked squash. Keep adding the remaining stock for about 5 minutes, or until the rice is creamy and the stock is absorbed. Stir in the chopped parsley, Parmigiano-Reggiano and the rest of the butter. Season and serve topped with cheese shavings
