A beautiful sorrel risotto with crumbled goat's cheese

The sorrel is flash-cooked here, then stirred though right at the end of cooking. This gives the risotto a vibrant green colour and a really fresh taste. I think goat's cheese adds a beautiful creaminess, so I've roasted some here. Crumble it over the risotto when you serve it – it balances the flavours beautifully.
