Better to make samller amounts rather than trying to freeze it - but you can use to make arancini as MJ suggests, or spread out and cut into pieces like polenta and then shallow fry it.

If you want to freeze and make risotto, then only half cook it, spread it out very well and cool quickly.  Then you can thaw and finish the cooking later - that works fairly well.

Great idea Thermomixer, thanks!
A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

Welcome riokris.  I only make roughly half the quantity in  risotto recipes and they turn out fine. Try fiddling around with the recipe and find what amount of rice suits you and then adjust the other ingredients accordingly.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.
