Brown Butter, Lemon & Crispy Sage Risotto
A rich yet balanced risotto built around nutty brown butter, bright lemon and crispy sage, delivering deep flavour with aromatic herbal notes. The browned butter adds complexity while citrus cuts through the richness, creating a modern take on traditional Italian comfort food. This dish aligns with 2026 trends for refined comfort foods and bold flavour contrasts, while the lighter citrus finish keeps the dish suitable for summer menus and seasonal dining.
