In reply to Susan. Hi Susan, arborio rice is what makes risotto creamy, so it won't be quite the same without it.

I’m about to make this, it looks perfect for my veggie friends who are coming for dinner tonight. All the comments here mention using brown (or white) arborio rice, but can I use regular short-grain brown rice? Will the cooking (or rather baking) time vary? Thank you for all your excellent recipes!

I adore this risotto, and have made it many times with white arborio as it’s almost impossible to find brown short grain rice in Australia. Today, I tried it with the usual, supermarket medium-grain brown rice and it worked beautifully! Hooray!

Divine! I used white Arborio rice and it only needed 30 min in the oven. Used pine nuts instead of almonds.

This is a delicious recipe!! Made exactly as written, but used white Arborio rice only because I was unable to find brown Arborio rice.
