This is only the second time I've made risotto, and it didn't turn out too well. I tried to scale it up for 5 people too. It took a VERY long time to get the rice soft enough and I had to add a LOT more stock. My mom (who's an excellent cook) was kind of hovering around helping and she said I rushed the first part of the stock addition... So, for anyone else who is a beginner risotto maker like me, DON'T RUSH IT!! Otherwise it will end up taking you hours and hours. It didn't taste too bad once it was FINALLY done though, although by then I was sick of the smell of it...
