After all weeks work again I had the possibility to relax with a good book. We had made an exotic dish due to Pat cut her ring finger. As later it has to be iced, Pat get diffrent packs of frozen fruits from the fridge. At least she thought that all were fruits. A small pack turned out to be ready made snails. We thought that it is high time to cook a special italian dish - snail risotto. 

Here is the recipe:

Stew optionally flavored1 kg of purified snail with onion, salt, pepper, cloves, a small spoonful of tomato puree, butter, oil, white or red wine. The cooking time is approx. two hours. Stir constantly until a thick sauce is obtained. Grind the whole thing. Put rice and add water as necessary, or broth. Finally add a spoonful of cream, grated cheese to taste and parsley. 

It is worth to try, for our opinion is is delicious!
