More Brussels sprouts are shredded together with cooked alongside the seasoned rice for a colorful together with nourishing risotto that's finished off alongside lemon juice, soft caprine animal cheese together with plenty of fresh grated Parmesan cheese for a rich together with creamy dining experience.
