I followed the recipe exactly, but my risotto turned out too watery. I think I might have added too much liquid.

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

This risotto was a delight! The combination of sweet corn and tangy tomatoes created a perfect balance of flavors. The texture was creamy and rich, and the Parmesan cheese added a nice touch of savory flavor.
