what to serve with risotto milanese
Hi! I'm making a risotto Milanese tonight and am trying to figure out a protein to go with it. I am going meat-lite lately and don't want anything too heavy; leaning towards seafood. Any suggestions would be great!

from Saveur to give you some ideas--the spelt-red beet risotto sounds good, as does the risotto with scallops. I like risotto, but after the first few bites, it gets a bit boring, so that is why I like some of these ideas.
At a traditional Italian table, the risotto would be served as a small separate course before the fish course, not as an accompaniment.
Anyhow, good luck.
I sometimes serve risotto Milanese with lamb shanks also.
Cheers
