That could be a plan - but I just don't see how there can be any benefit using a fizzy wine over still.
And I would never have Cava in the house 😉
Has anyone ever made risotto with red wine? I did once when we didn't have any white in - it looked like someone had butchered a small dog on our plates.
Yup, along with loads and loads of spiced meats and beef stock, best risotto I've ever made!
(I don't understand you lot: I always use red wine in paella. What's so wrong with the colour? it goes with the chorizo chunks)
food of the gods: home made rice pudding with clotted cream.
I always use red wine in any red meat risotto I make & plenty of it too 1/2 bottle in the pan 1/2 bottle in me 😀
Donna meat with mint-yoghurt and chilli...
Real bad and real shite but tastes mighty fine.
crumpets
Sweet potato soup, made by a friend of mine, plenty of black pepper and a good dollop of cream in there - its almost as thick as plaster, served with fresh tiger bread and should one wish, a beer.
Mind, I had a Lamb Bhuna from the Kashmir in spital hill last night, that was flippin lovley indeed.
Avocado, Spinach & wholegrain mustard sandwiches, served on your fave loaf.
Someone on here told me about fried smoked salmon too, like a healthy bacon buttie, thats pretty damned good too.
And lastly, mum's victoria sponge / chocolate orange cake (nigella recipe's) both of them are luvvverrrrly.

what Simon Ralli said
stovies
Recipe 1:
Battenburg cake, stand on end in a soup bowl.
Bottle of Port, preferably good port, but any port in a storm as they say. (Sherry, Drambuie or whisky will do)
Pour port into Battenburg cake until it runs through, stop when you have about 5mm of port swilling in the bottom of plate.
Get small teaspoon. Start eating from the top.
Finish off Battenburg, then pick up plate and drink remaining port. By this time you won't care that it looks naff.
Recipe 2:
Oatcakes
Spread with honey both sides
Saucer full of whisky or rum
Lay oatcake in saucer, eat with teaspoon.
Repeat until no ingredients left.
