    Why would u title this recipe as shrimp, peas and risotto, and then in the instructions u say brown rice!? Make up ur mind!

    This recipe tasted fine – a bit bland – but I rated it low because it was a soup! There must be an error in the
    ratio of liquid to rice! 🙁

    Agreed. Mine also turned out to be soup. I made serving for 3 and it said 3 cups chicken broth and 3/4 cup brown rice. Decided to strain it immediately after pressure cooking. Drained about a cup of liquid. Hope that helps save dinner.

    Turned out well and overall this is a good dish. One thing though, it could’ve used some salt and extra garlic. Perhaps the fresh herbs could’ve been better. Will cook again but needs some workshopping

    This was a great recipe to start cooking as a beginner. I’ve made apple cinnamon steel oats twice now and cooked chicken breasts. The Shrimp and pea risotto was quite tasty. The longer you saute it the more liquid is evaporated. I would make it again but for more servings. This was a good test.
