Chop the shallots. Core the apples and dice some of them with the skin on, and others with the skin peeled off. Cut the spring onion into thin strips. Make the risotto by frying the chopped shallots and the apple with the peel, then add the rice and water to cover, and proceed with cooking as per a normal risotto. Fry the spring onions in a pan with a little olive oil, until crispy. Melt a little butter in another pan and cook the remaining apples in the butter, adding a little sugar to caramelize. Add the saffron to give a little light flavour. Add a splash of water and braise until the apples turn orange. Stir a knob of butter into the risotto. Add plenty of gorgonzola and continue to stir. Serve the risotto in the middle of the plate, adding a few pieces of the saffron caramelized apple and garnished with the strips of spring onion. This invention of our chef is ready.
