If you love to cook, you need to check this recipe for risotto. Do yourself a favor and make one for your fam. Recipe by chef Gordon Ramsay. Ingredients needed for the risotto: 100g Arborio rice (use top quality like Carnroli or Nano) 25g white onion, finely diced 20g coconut oil 125g fresh garden peas 40g fresh garden peas, pureed 350ml vegetable stock Salt and pepper to taste 1 mint sprig Pea shoots For the mint oil: 1 bunch of mint 400ml extra virgin olive oil Recipe for the mint oil: Wash the bunch of mint and pat dry. Strip the leaves from the stalks and lay out onto an oven tray. Heat at around 80°C for 2-3 hours to dry out the leaves. Add the mint leaves and olive oil to a saucepan. On a very low heat, warm the olive oil for 1 hour until the oil is green. Blitz the oil in a blender and pass through muslin or very fine sieve. You will then have a beautiful clear mint oil, which you can drizzle around the risotto. Recipe for the risotto: Add the coconut oil to a saucepan pan and sweat the onions on a medium-low heat until tender and translucent. Do not allow to colour or brown. Add the Arborio rice to the onion and stir to coat the grains in oil. Add half of the stock to the pan and bring to a gentle simmer. Ensure it retains a constant heat and gently stir as it cooks – it should take around 20 minutes. As the rice absorbs the water and begins to swell, add the remaining liquid gradually as it is absorbed. Season with a little salt and pepper. Meanwhile, in a blender, add 40g of the fresh garden peas with a splash of water and pulse into a puree. When the rice is tender, add the mint sprig. Remove from the heat and gently stir in the pea puree, and fresh peas. Mix through, remove the mint sprig and season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve into a bowl and dress with pea shoots, and a drizzle of mint oil.

Even gold has a weakness: mercury. Gold is well known for resisting corrosion and tarnish, but mercury behaves differently. When mercury comes into contact with gold, its atoms can move into the metal and form a gold–mercury amalgam. This changes the structure and physical properties of the gold, which can make the affected area softer, weaker, or easier to deform. The effect is a useful example of how two metals can interact at the atomic level. Because mercury is toxic, this fact is best understood as a chemistry lesson rather than something to test at home. Note: This content is shared for educational purposes only. Do not handle or experiment with mercury.

Can't really blame the shark... A man who was seriously injured after being bitten by a shark off the coast of Ireland says he doesn’t blame the animal for what happened. Sebastian Achim was fishing aboard a small vessel south of Ardmore, County Waterford, on August 11 when a shark he had pulled onto the boat suddenly bit into his calf. The group had been catching, tagging and releasing sharks for research, and Achim had just removed the hook from what he believed was his first blue shark when it suddenly lunged. “I was just admiring the fish itself, when he just jumped in a millisecond and grabbed into my calf,” Achim told RTÉ’s Morning Ireland. He said he believed he was keeping a safe distance from the shark when it attacked. Despite the injury, the crew’s first priority was getting the animal back into the ocean. “We just threw him back in the water, we didn’t manage to tag him,” Achim said. “We didn’t want the fish to be more panicked than that.” And while Achim was left seriously injured, he said he believes the shark was simply acting on instinct. “I cannot say if it was a deliberate attack, or it was not a deliberate attack, but the fish is in the right anyway,” he said. “We took it out of the water and the fish was in his survival instinct.” The situation quickly became critical. With the boat around three hours from shore, Achim began losing significant amounts of blood and said he started passing out around 10 minutes after the bite. “I didn’t think I was going to make it,” he recalled. A helicopter eventually airlifted him to safety, with Achim saying he believes he would not have survived without it. He was taken to Cork University Hospital and underwent surgery, where doctors told him he had lost skin and tissue from his leg and would need skin grafts. Achim says he is now recovering and remains hopeful that sensation in the injured area will return

BREAKING: Ridley Scott has stepped directly into the planned ALIEN: ROMULUS sequel, revealing that he is rewriting the movie and bringing Michael Fassbender’s David back into the franchise. Scott described ALIEN: ROMULUS as “OK” but said the sequel needed his help. His new version will reportedly pick up after ALIEN: COVENANT, with David now believing himself to be Ozymandias, a godlike ruler capable of building his own terrifying civilization. COVENANT ended with David secretly taking control of the colony ship while Daniels, Tennessee and 2,000 colonists remained trapped in hypersleep. He also possessed thousands of human embryos and two facehugger specimens, giving him everything required to continue his experiments and create a horrifying “brave new world.” It remains unclear whether Cailee Spaeny’s Rain and David Jonsson’s Andy will still return under Scott’s rewrite. However, the movie could now connect the PROMETHEUS and COVENANT storyline directly to the world of ROMULUS, finally revealing what David created after disappearing nearly a decade ago.
