This is a risotto cake, made from Beet Risotto. So, how do you make this risotto cake? First, you make beet risotto, a delicious, great looking risotto. Then, if you have some risotto left, you can make risotto cakes, and they are very simple to make.

In addition to leftover beet risotto, all you need to make risotto cakes are eggs and flour. Just add an egg or two to the beet risotto, mix, then make risotto cakes and coat them in flour. Then, pan fry until the risotto cakes are done. That’s it!

You can serve the risotto cake with grilled chicken and a simple salad, such as Caprese Salad Recipe, Spinach Salad Recipe With Peaches and Red Onions or Arugula Salad With Tomatoes And Red Onions.
