- Roast the sweet potatoes in the oven before adding them to the risotto. This intensifies their flavor and brings out their natural sweetness.
- Toast the cashews beforehand for a deeper, nuttier flavor and extra crunch.
- Use warm chicken gravy to keep the risotto at an even temperature, allowing the rice to cook more evenly.
- Stir frequently while cooking the risotto to release the starches from the rice, giving it a creamy texture.
- Add the spinach at the end to keep its vibrant green color and fresh taste.
- Feel free to substitute chicken gravy with vegetable broth for a vegetarian version of this dish.
