Skradinski rižot

Veal risotto

The little Dalmatian town of Skradin, at the mouth of the Krka river in Croatia, makes this risotto once a year in huge pots for its summer festival, and the cooks, traditionally men, stir it for hours. Veal is simmered with onion until it falls into threads, and the rice is then cooked slowly in that rich broth until it nearly melts, so the dish ends up creamy, golden and deeply savoury without a drop of cream. It is served on its own, with grated hard cheese and a glass of something cold. A common mistake is hurrying it on a high heat: the meat must collapse completely before the rice goes in. Chef's tip: shred the veal with two forks right in the pot, it thickens the sauce as it breaks down.

Green morning juice

A refreshing green juice of cucumber, green apple, celery, spinach and bottle gourd (dudhi), lifted with parsley, basil and mint. It's light, clean-tasting and best drunk first thing in the morning, as soon as it's made. Taste a small piece of the bottle gourd first: if it tastes bitter, don't use it.

Banana milk shake

A thick, frosty milkshake of frozen banana and vanilla ice cream with a good kick of instant coffee. Freezing the banana slices makes it extra cold and creamy without ice. Use less coffee for a milder shake.
