I'm not sure what went wrong, but my risotto turned out really soupy. I think I may have added too much liquid.

This risotto was a bit too bland for me. I think next time I'll add more herbs and spices.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and it always turns out delicious. I usually add a little extra shrimp and scallops, and sometimes I'll use a different type of rice, like brown rice or wild rice.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for me, but I still enjoyed it. I think next time I'll use less chili paste.

I tried this recipe last night and it was a disaster. The rice was undercooked and the seafood was overcooked. I'm not sure what went wrong.
