I followed the recipe exactly, but my risotto cakes didn't hold together very well. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These cheesy risotto cakes were a bit too rich for my taste. I think next time I'll use less cheese.

I added some chopped sun-dried tomatoes and spinach to the risotto before making the cakes. It gave them an extra pop of flavor that was really delicious.

I tried making these risotto cakes but they turned out a bit too dry. I think I might have added too much cheese. Regardless, the flavor was still amazing and my family enjoyed them.
