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.
RIP Cevin Fisher The house music pioneer passed away following a “a brief bout with cancer” on October 29, three days after his 63rd birthday, a statement sent to Mixmag has confirmed. Born in New Jersey, Fisher was a regular at legendary clubs like Paradise Garage and The Loft as he made his way into the house music scene, picking up his debut residency at notable Newark nightspot Club Zanzibar aged 17. Counting the likes of Tony Humphries and Larry Levan as early mentors, he went on to have an influential career in house music, putting out dance chart-topping remixes of Chaka Khan and Quincy Jones, and working with the likes of Timmy Regisford of Motown Records and Arthur Baker. He released a number of his own seminal productions, including ‘The Freaks Come Out’, ‘(You Got Me) Burning Up’ and ‘Music Saved My Life’, helping to shape the history of house music and earning fans across the world throughout a career spanning more than four decades.
John Romero's next shooter survived the Microsoft purge, now he's comparing it to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.
Four unreleased Jeff Mills tracks from the ’90s are finally coming out The Detroit techno legend is dropping ‘Gamma Rays’ on October 30, featuring four tracks recorded around 1995 that have remained unheard for decades. The release arrives on his own Axis Records, bringing a previously hidden piece of techno history to light. Which other ’90s techno tracks deserve a release?

Imagine storing renewable energy using materials that are far more abundant than lithium. That is the idea behind sodium based batteries, an emerging technology attracting major research investment in Germany. In 2026, German research institutions and industry partners launched major initiatives to develop sodium ion batteries that could offer a more affordable and resource efficient alternative to conventional lithium ion technology. Sodium is abundant and can be obtained from sources such as salt, although the battery itself requires specially engineered materials rather than ordinary table salt alone. Scientists are also investigating other battery designs, including sodium sulfur and metal air systems. These are different technologies, each with its own potential advantages and engineering challenges. In the future, they could help store electricity generated by solar panels and wind turbines, making renewable energy more dependable when the sun is not shining or the wind is not blowing. However, batteries capable of storing energy for years are not yet an established outcome of these German projects. Researchers still need to improve factors such as efficiency, lifespan, safety and manufacturing costs before these technologies can reach their full potential.
