Instructions to make Use-up Gammon, Chestnut Mushroom & Mascarpone Risotto:
  1. Heat oil in a large frying or sauté pan and gently fry the onions on a medium-high heat for 4 minutes, stirring only to avoid sticking.
  2. Add the mushrooms, garlic and pepper and fry for a further 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Stir in the rice and cook for a further minute. Then increase the heat to high.
  4. Add the wine, allow a couple of minutes for the alcohol to mostly evaporate and then add the stock, a little (say 100 ml at a time) at a time, constantly stirring, and wait for that to be absorbed before adding more, stirring continuously. It should basically be at the boil/fast simmer and if the liquid is added judiciously it should take around 15 minutes, by which time the rice should be almost cooked. Do add a little more liquid if it looks like going dry - but only add a little at a time.
  5. Add the ham, mustard, mascarpone and Parmesan. Continue cooking, thoroughly and continuously but gently stirring, for just a few more minutes until the rice is properly cooked. Season to taste.
  6. Serve immediately onto warmed plates or bowls and garnish with the parsley.
