The possibilities are endless...great way to use up the contents of your fridge....what do you have to use up?
Imho the key to a great risotto is the stock that you use - I usually start making a fresh stock whilst I'm preparing the other ingredients and then just ladle hot fresh stock from one pan into the other as I need it.
You can alter the taste of the risotto by tailoring the stock to suit - if you are adding veggies to the risotto then add some of trimmings, leaves, etc to the stock pot - add some chopped tomato or tomato puree for a deeper colour and flavour - herbs that will survive the boiling - bay leaves, rosemary, thyme, curry leaves are all good additions.
