When it comes to a quick and easy dinner, you just can't beat a Thermomix risotto! And this Thermomix Lemon Risotto with Asparagus, Prosciutto & Cherry Tomatoes is the most deliciously fresh and simple dinner. Trust me, you're going to LOVE it!
To make this risotto, you cook a really basic lemon risotto in the Thermomix. While it's cooking, pop the asparagus, prosciutto and cherry tomatoes into a frying pan or grill pan and cook until the prosciutto is crispy and the asparagus is lightly grilled.
Allow the lemon risotto to rest (and thicken) for a few minutes - preferably in the ThermoServer. Serve with the grilled asparagus, prosciutto and cherry tomatoes and sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese.

Tried this tonight and it is absolutely delicious!! My daughter is such a picky eater at the moment and even she ate most of her bowl. The only thing I did differently is not fry the cherry tomatoes because I don’t really like the texture of cooked tomato haha but otherwise it was amazing! Will definitely be putting this recipe in the rotation of dinners.
