Perhaps known better for his explosive temper in the kitchen than for his plethora of successful shows, restaurants, and numerous cookbooks, this man has more tv time than the entire cast of every Law and Order. He is Gordon Ramsay and he won't tolerate your stupidity.

Good rants, good raves
If you ever find yourself on one of his shows, you'd better damn well know how to cook a perfect risotto, here is a recipe found on Food.com.  Learn it, or "get out of my kitchen you stupid cow!!"

Gordon Ramsay's Tomato and Mushroom Risotto

Prep Time: 10 mins | Total Time: 55 mins

Directions:  


  1. In a large saucepan sauté the shallots with the olive oil for about 3 to 4 minutes and then add the mushrooms and continue to sauté for another 5 minutes, stirring frequently until softened.
  2. Stir in the rice and cook for another minute or two. Add the wine, stir and cook until absorbed. Pour in a quarter of the chicken broth, bring to a boil and cook until absorbed, stirring frequently.
  3. Gradually stir in the rest of the broth over a period of about 15 minutes, adding more as each previous amount is absorbed. This helps to give you a creamy risotto.
  4. When the rice is al dente, mix in the tomatoes and herbs. Check the seasoning and stir in the cheeses. Serve in warmed bowls topped with shaved aged Parmesan.
