Tomato and basil risotto
When the weather co-operates, February is the month for tomatoes. They're never better than at the end of summer, and I always try to use as many as possible at this time of year. Tomatoes are the absolute star of this risotto. Use whichever variety of tomatoes you have that look and feel juicy and ripe. But remember, risotto waits for no one, so eat this marvellous summer dish the minute it's ready.
