Is risotto healthy (more inside)? ?

Question

I don't use cream or anything in it, I just use stock to absorb into the rice then add veggies/fish (prawns, salmon etc) or both to to it. And I always have at least an extra portion of veg with it.

Is it healthy? Low fat?

Thanks

Answer 1

hippy- Risotto is a creamy rice dish made with short-grain or Arborio Italian rice. The rice is gently cooked in butter or olive oil. Liquid, usually broth, is then added a small amount at a time until the rice is cooked and bathed in creamy liquid. If you use olive oil instead of butter, you have a healthy carbohydrate.  Your fish selections and veggies are great additions for good, low-fat nutrition.

Answer 2

sounds pretty healthy and yummy to me (as long as you don't fry the vegies/fish in a lot of oil before adding them to the rice?)  

Answer 3

Yes,I thinks so.Please calculate your BMI

If ok not to worry

What is BMI?

Body mass index should be 20 for female & 25 for male maximum

BMI= Weight in kilogram/ (Height in Meter)2

Suppose weight is 100 KG & Height is 2 Meter than BMI=100/(2) 2 =25

This is acceptable for male but for femal has to reduce weight up to 80 KGS

Answer 4

Seems pretty healthy and could be a good meal for menus in the tea diet.
