In case you haven’t noticed, I have been on a writing sabbatical for the past few months due to a crazy busy season at work. I couldn’t be happier to be back than with a challenge! Motivated by creativity and deadlines, I bring you this fantastic risotto as part of the Very Vegetarian Recipe Challenge given by Plated and Oxo!
Briami inspired by Cat Cora
Last month, my family and I took photos and celebrated my birthday dinner at Cat Cora’s Kouzzina at Disney’s Boardwalk. I had never even heard of Briami before, but as soon as I read the menu description, I knew I wanted to try it.
Traditional Greek Briami is a dish of oven roasted vegetables with cheese. Chef Cora took it up a notch by serving it over an herbed orzo. It was fantastic! I even put a photo of it on Instagram and promised I’d try to replicate the dish for you, so here’s what I came up with!
