Standing Up for Brown Rice Risotto

I had to try a recent recipe from Food 52 that touted roasted cauliflower and a brown rice risotto. What's not to like?

Probably the part of the recipe that says you can incorporate 7.5 cups of liquid into brown rice in 25 minutes to produce a risotto.

I am here to stand up and testify that it takes 45 minutes of standing and stirring to get to the desired risotto result.

Lesson learned: risotto takes the same amount of time as simmering the rice would.  I'd still make it again!
