Sounds like you had the heat too fierce then. Risotto is a simple dish and
thus relies on quality ingredients, most noticeably the stock. I haven't
found anyone who likes seafood that doesn't enjoy a prawn risotto made with
their shell stock.

The one time I made risotto (aborio rice) I had to stir it constantly.
Could have been the stove, I suppose. Or could have been the cook LOL
But
it required constant stirring and constant additions of stock and it was,
in
the end, just rice with vegetables cooked in stock. YMMV, obviously.
