Biltong & Kingklip Risotto – A fancy risotto made at home

One of the greatest things about South Africa is our love of food. We have a great sense of taste and we are very happy with what we traditionally make for our families. However, we take inspiration from all around the world when it comes to cuisine and make it our own too. Risotto is an Italian dish you might only find in fancy restaurants because it just takes a bit more effort to create. But, you don’t need to be scared to make it at home because you will have the creamiest, tastiest risotto you’ve ever had with some great South African flavours. Our Biltong & Kingklip Risotto is where fancy meats home-cooked and is a real treat for the family.

Kingklip is a staple of South African seafood restaurants and is easily found around our Southern coastline. It’s a slightly more dense but tender fish that is always welcome on any plate. Biltong might just be the tastiest cured meat on the planet and something you might find on the snack table every weekend with sport. The combination of seafood and biltong creates a unique yet surprisingly delicious flavour profile. The only challenge with your Biltong & Kingklip Risotto is timing your risotto but if you let the moisture cook away before adding more stock, you’ll have the best results possible.

Combine great Mediterranean food with proudly South African ingredients and you have the most special Biltong & Kingklip Risotto in the world.
