1

Place the stock in a small saucepan and bring to the boil. Lower the heat and keep hot.

2

Place a large heavy-based saucepan over a medium heat and add the olive oil. Fry the diced turkey until crisp. Remove from the oil and set aside.

3

In the same pan, add the rice and toast it in the oil until it turns translucent. Stirring constantly, add a ladle of hot stock and cook until it has absorbed. Continue adding a ladle of stock at a time, while stirring until the rice is perfectly cooked – approx. 20 minutes. Cover and allow to rest for 5 minutes.

4

Just before serving, add the butter, cheeses and seasoning. Adjust the consistency with more stock, if necessary. The risotto should have a loose consistency.

5

Divide the risotto between 4 bowls and make a small indent with the back of a spoon in the centre of each. Carefully place an egg yolk in the indent.

6

Serve with extra grated cheese and ground black pepper.
