I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my risotto turned out mushy. I think I might have cooked it for too long. Next time, I'll be sure to keep a closer eye on it.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my risotto turned out too dry. I think I might have added too much rice. Next time, I'll be sure to measure the rice more carefully.
