Fish Broth: Either use a fish broth cube or do it Tommaso's way:
Boil in a pan for around an hour to an hour and a half 1 chopped carrot, 1 chopped celery stalk, 1 whole onion, 1 fish or leftover fish heads, pieces. Strain broth after cooking and before adding to the risotto.
Prawn Butter:
Melt 150g butter in a pan full of prawn shells and simmer for 10 minutes. Mash through a sieve and strain again to remove shell parts. Conserve in fringe until needed.
Lemon Oil: Simply grate lemon zest into olive oil! You can use this on salads and fish, meat, veg and all sorts or dishes.
Risotto:
80-100g carnaroli rice per person
150g fresh prawns per person
bunch of parsley
Toast the rice in a hot pan for 30 seconds then start adding ladlefuls of broth one by one while stirring. Check the rice cooking time on packet and add the prawns 5 minutes before the end. Keep stirring and keep adding ladles of broth. After 3 minutes add the prawn butter and stir well. When the rice is cooked add the lemon oil, then sprinkle parsley on top to serve.

Thanks for watching the video [Insert Video Title Here]
All that you said in your intro is absolutely true. When your notification popped up, I sighed and thought „oh yes, a little escape from it all…“ Thank you very much Nicki and Carlo.👍🏻🥰💐🙋🏼♀️
AMEN! I’m on Nicki’s channel to take me back to my honeymoon and more. There’s an overwhelming amount of tragedy in today’s world and I’m here because I want to live for the day and dream of happier times. Hello Everywhere🇨🇦🇮🇹💚🤍❤️
Nicki, Carlo and family, thank you for including us in your life each week. I look forward to my Sunday visits to Positano so much! I love the spring yellow flowers on the trellis, Indie’s ears and long legs, your beautiful, new kitchen and the amazing Seafood risotto. JP’s offer is a bit tempting.
With all the craziness and worry in the world......... it’s so nice to see a normal loving family do normal loving things. 👩🦱👨🍳
Thanks always Nicki and Carlo!
Agree!!
Yes, Nicki - Your and Carlo's videos are like a short get away from the rest of the world! I LOVE that - and I THANK YOU for them! Anyone who watches you knows you are a caring and sensitive person! Ony a nut would criticize you for not politicizing your very special place here!!! Hugs to Nicki, Carlo, Holly and Indie!
That really IS why I watch your videos. It's a stressful time and it's nice to see joy and peacefulness happening there on the Amalfi coast!
Exactly. If I need to have an opinion about what is happening I go to the news there are enough channels to watch. I am here to relax, laugh and calm my heart.
Nicki and Carlo, you are an oasis of calm in a sea of turmoil, thank you for that.
Tomasso's meal was very drool worthy!
Bellissimo!
@@jeromemercurio5407 espero que estén todos muy bien la familia sabe qué los Quiero a todos 💕 y ami perrito 🐕 cuánto me gustaría estar con ustedes cuídense muchísimo todos los Quiero
Canarias Tenerife ♥
Me too, it’s been a bit of a lifeline.💖
well said; agree... :)
Thank you Nicki and Carlo for this soothing and cheerful video, we definitely need this ! (I can’t wait to see the kitchen tiles ;-)
When things in the world gets crazy, doing something normal is good for the soul. I love your videos because I see something that I don't get in my normal life. I live a very stressful life and this is like an oasis for me. My heartfelt thank you to you and Carlo for sharing everything with us. Thank you.💕
Well said, I couldn't agree more. I love how they highlight tranquility and a simpler life. Call it escapism - I don't care. I love it and I'm a huge fan. Keep filming Nicki and Carlo!!
Amen!
Word! 💝
Same here! Love the weekly escapes they bring to our lives. ❤️
Yes I am a huge fan as well and feel relaxed while watching ❤️❤️
I really enjoy when Carlo speaks in Italian, it's helping me learn a little Italian which I've always wanted to learn :) Great video!
Me too! I was thinking of how to say short the other day, and corto just popped into my head!!
@@giselle4418 lol i find myself saying things like that too. Like when my daughter phones me we always say" Buongiorno":)
Literally laughed out loud when Carlo said “of course we don’t only eat pasta… we eat pizza too”. 😂
thanks for the escape, Nicki + Carlo!!
We did too!
Me too, so funny!
Nicki, once again I cheer you on for your integrity! I so believe in your values of simplicity, beauty and enjoying what we have. But I forget. Thank you for being a strong clear voice for staying true to bringing your own truth and values to your channel.
And for reminding each of us that our choices are our own!
Such love and gratitude to you and Carlo!
I’m older and not able to walk distances anymore. Your videos give me such great joy, almost as though I’m with you on your hikes and enjoying the scenery. This might be your best video ever with what you had to say. Thank you.
Your videos are as close to Positano and the Amalfi coast as I'm ever going to get. My knees said so!
Production on these videos is off the charts!! The amount of effort going into creating such an artistic vlog is awing. I'm in awe. You guys work hard to make me smile and I appreciate it all.
Tommaso appears to really know his stuff! The way he made the "prawn butter" was fascinating, and I am sure he really enjoys cooking for the family in your new kitchen. Nicki, I appreciated the sentiments you expressed in the beginning of this video. The geo-political issues happening in the world are heart breaking. Certainly everyone cares, but your videos offer a sweet, much needed respite from them. ❤️ Thank you!
Such an ABSOLUTE joy to watch ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you Nicki, Carlo, Skye, Tomaso, Elizabeth, Peppe, Leni & Rosi. 🥰🥰🥰 I feel like you have all become a virtual part of my life and now I can't imagine it without you all 💗💗💗 Sending lots of love, peace and blessings your way. 😘😘😘
Was nice seeing Luca eating with them as well 😊
Well said Nicki! It’s sad how much criticism you receive when you’re just trying to spread beauty and joy with others. We all are feeling the heaviness in the world right now and it’s a time to build one another up and be of some support. Your kitchen looks so beautiful, what a beautiful place to put a meal together 😍
The kitchen was absolutely Stunning🤩 and I couldn't have said it better myself 😄 God bless stay safe 🕊️🥂🌹✨🙏✌️
Well said‼
You guys got me through the past two years!! I wouldn’t be without your videos, thank you so much for taking us through your days with you!
My favorite part of Sunday morning is sipping my tea and watching what’s going on with Nikki and Carlo. This week was was extra special for many reasons. I love watching Nikki and Indie together, true love in bloom🌸So nice to see Tomasso in the kitchen with his father making yet another beautiful meal, and Nikki, I absolutely loved your opening statements, couldn’t agree more, and sincerely, Grazie Tanto, for keeping your content about the beauty of friends, family and the joys of living in the best country in the world.🇮🇹✨
First, Tommaso’s seafood risotto looked amazing. Nicki, we personally thank you for keeping your videos light and drama free. There are plenty of places that I can watch or read if I need updates on current events. I have been watching your videos for about three years and you have provided a much needed escape of the “stuff” going on around us. Thanks to both you and Carlo from the bottom of our hearts for caring so much to put out great content every week. We can see the thought and hard work that goes into every video. Indie is growing so quickly and Holly seems to really enjoy her company. Two thumbs up.👍👍As always, great job. 🌈🌴🌈
The kitchen looks great and it was probably easier to cook in. Also, thank you for leaving the world issues alone it is great to escape from all that and see your lives in Positano
Hi Nicki and Carlo! I live in Poland and last weeks was very hard for me because of war at our neighbours. I couldn't wait till your next video to distract myself from this horrible reality. I really love how your new kitchen looks by the way😊
Well said Nicki of course we are all aware of the terrible things going on in the world but your channel always leaves me feeling relaxed and positive , keep up the great work guys ! 😊❤️
What a nice treat for you all to have Thomas prepare a delicious dinner and he even made the fish stock from scratch what an awesome son you have… there is much to be thankful for, wishing you all a wonderful evening and continued good health.. God Bless, watching you from Annapolis Maryland USA 🇺🇸.
The risotto looked amazing!! It's great to see Indie and Holly together. Thank you so much for all you and your family do by allowing us to see glimpses into your lives. It is pure escapism and enjoyment for me, a block of time to not be thinking of family matters, work matters and world matters. Many thanks!
I love watching Holly and Indie play and get along so well!
There is wisdom in your decision to stick to the knowledge that your vlogs are the pause that refreshes & hopefully inspires . Honestly I cannot believe how long this dark week seemed. It is wonderful to come to your place of common sense, productivity, calm, fun & goodness. Keeping it this way is a good thing! Thank you!
Just wanted to say that what you said is spot on. I watch your videos on my lunch break in between taking care of patients. It’s really relaxing and it gets me excited to visit this summer!
Your channel is great the way it is! I come here for exactly this!!!
I literally can only watch my favorite CZcamsrs because I actually feel comforted knowing that life still goes on. It doesn’t take away from my compassion for this world. Thank you for that lovely introduction! You’re such an amazing inspiration!
Well said
Thank you, Nicki, and your Positano family for this lovely video. It is just what we need to rest our minds from the stresses of the week.
As I read the comments I realize how fortunate I am. I may have bad knees but I am not depressed, stressed, or in need of escapism and frankly don't understand how many people claim daily stress. I just know I can't cruise or hike and your vids are my travel.
I love it when we get to watch a meal or even a picnic being prepared. It is especially nice when we are shown "how" as well as "why"! Tommaso has become a master chef! Thanks!
Thank you Nicki for saying that you will continue to give us a look see on your side of the world and to be just that. Please carry on as you are, you all greatly loved and you have no idea how much you have helped people manage their lives, where ever they are in what ever situation. Thank you to you all! ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you thank you! You said it perfectly. I go on your site to relax and escape world problems. I am so grateful for your videos. We all know and care about what’s going on in the world. It’s a relief to be able to forget for a little while. Thank you again.
Thanks Nikki. You are absolutely right. Every week I look forward to escaping and for a little time enjoying a welcome relief from the news.
My day is always brighter with a few minutes spent with you, Carlo, Holly, Indie and all your friends and family.
Thank you, Nicki for keeping your channel simple. I LOVE to just see your everyday life. Thanks to you and Carlo for just letting me see part of your life. I love all the views, food, family, friends and music you do. It's my oasis! Even my grandkids know who you are. Thank you!
Yes please keep your channel as you would want it to be. That’s what makes it unique. Don’t feel you have to abide by what others dictate to you. I love your little window into Positano. Can’t wait to visit it someday myself. Take care!
If people wish to see the latest news then there are plenty of news channels for them, likewise political programs. You and your family remind everyone what a wonderful world we have, that's important. Lovely video, again.
So lovely to see you enjoy life, love, family, and cooking in your new kitchen. Indie is such a bundle of joy... and mischief! Thrilled to see Tommaso cooking again. Cannot thank you all enough for allowing us to share in your activities and picnics - it's just like being there! :0) Much love, as always.
Thank you for your positive and uplifting content!! But a special thanks for your humor and your heart💙
I am so loving your precious family and furbabies. What a beautiful lifestyle. I start looking on Wednesday for your video every week . I’m so happy when you post it! We need your calming and sensitive outlook on life right now. Thank you for letting us inside your home and your enviable life each week so we can dream a little! ❤️
I love the cooking segments with Tomasso. He is very much like Carlo. Thank you for giving everyone a little vacation away from the news.💖
I love that you stay true to yourself and this channel and stay from the politics! As you so correctly pointed put we come to this channel to escape all the stress of the world! And you are so lucky to have a son like Tomasso who can cook so well and enjoys doing it for family!
What a lovely vlog. Your life on the Amalfi Coast allows me to escape from the harsh realities of life for a few minutes. I enjoy seeing your family and friends and all of your projects. Your kitchen is absolutely gorgeous! Thank you for bringing some joy into our lives 💕
Thanks for taking the time to talk about what all of us have been going thru in the past 2 yrs & present. I would image it's not easy to see what people put out there. You have been very respectful of it. Please don't allow others get to you & the family! I do enjoy all of your weekly videos & sharing your life's with all of us. Also, the food at the beach get together & Tommaso's risotto looked absolutely yummy. Again, thanks. Ciao
Your opening statement broke my heart, that anyone should not understand the enormous loving service you provide to those of us worried, feeling small and alone struggling to get through just one day more.Metaphorically falling to your feet in gratitude.
Thank you for keeping your vlogs focussing on Positano and your lives. Loved the cookery lesson. The beach picnic looked great and I laughed my socks off at your home made advert. Thank you Nikki and Carlo.
Our kitchen has some of the same elements as your new kitchen! White cabinets, butcher block counters, open shelves, large white sink! We are still happy with ours after 12 years.
Indie's first scooter ride and she looked like she was enjoying it. You'll have to get a scooter side car for the four of you when Indie gets bigger. I always love when Tommaso comes over to cook a meal, please let him know his cooking lessons are very much appreciated. Thank you for another escape into Positano life, grazie!
Next time my hubby gets lazy, I'm going to show him the clip of Carlo lugging that fridge down 500 stairs!! That's AMORE!!
I loved hearing your thoughts at the beginning, well said. I find it so, so disappointing viewers feel the need to personally attack vloggers, shame on them ! I am loving your kitchen restyle, it looks fabulous, and suits your house so well - thank you for sharing with us all x
Really, without your channel, I would be terrible depressed. Thank you for keeping your viewers sane!
I agree with you of not voicing your opinions publicly, I found your channel and have been watching your beautiful life that you share with us so keep them coming and take care.
I loved watching Tommaso cook, your picnic on the beach, and the raising of the new greenhouse roof, thank you for taking me away to another world once again - Love you guys
Carlo: We don't just eat pasta. We eat pizza too!
Indie seemed to like her first scooter ride.
The new kitchen looked great in the cooking demonstration💌
Thank you for providing exactly the kind of “escape” I needed today to stay sane! Spending time in your lives vicariously is uplifting.
Bravo with what you said in your intro. At a time when we are all feeling the strain and worry of world events ,it’s so true to just seize the day and find some enjoyment in the simple things in life . Great video as always . Love them 💖🇦🇺
Well said Nicki. We really appreciate ( me and my husband) that you’re taking us away from everyday worries and negativity by showing us the beautiful side of life. Like you said we have only one life and we have to live it and enjoy it until we can. That doesn’t mean that we are oblivious to what’s happening. Stay safe guys ❤️
You and your family are a blessing to those that enjoy your channel. Your integrity, honesty, loving and caring attitude towards life is refreshing and cherished by your viewers. Thank you Nicki from the bottom of my heart for allowing me the previledge to feel part of your family.. 🙏🇵🇷
What an amazing meal Tomaso made 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 thank you for another great video. Our best to you and your family! ❤️
You KNOW your watchers. I concur and bravo for your statements clarifying your stance on what your videos are for. Blessings for the work, sharing bits of your home and fun times. Its enjoyable to see Carlos son enjoy preparing meals for his family. By the way, we used to call the innards of the shrimp to remove, the "poop shoot" . I know, its gross but our southern silly term for it in Atlanta metro. Take care~
If somebody wants to warble in horrible and sad news this is not a channel for them. However for me and thousands of others, I enjoy sooo much your beautiful videos. Thank you for taking the time and effort!
Watching you, Carlo, pups, family and friends is such a treat that I look forward to every week and especially needed now with what is happening in the world. Your beach picnic has inspired me to have a picnic with a friend here at our beach. Thanks again for another great video!
Bravo on your opening monologue. And yes, your wonderful videos of the Amalfi coast...and beyond, always soothe my soul, and fill me with gratitude.
Your videos are so relaxing and calming. Thank you for sharing with us your home. It’s the best medicine after a stressful week of working!
Your thoughts and words were simply perfect 🥰 .. I've come to love gardening and enjoying my family and living simpler since watching your channel. Thanking you both for sharing your life with us.
Thanks for another beautiful video Nicki and Carlo. I look forward to your new videos every week and I follow your updates on Instagram. Love your way of life and thank you for keeping spirits up over the last few years. Love from England x
Your words at the beginning were spot on. Your channel is a bright spot and a way to relax from some of the more stressful aspects of life. Crisis times can remind us not to take the simple pleasures in life for granted. Taking the time to enjoy a picnic with friends is a good way to remember what is truly important in life.
Well said Nicki!! Thank you guys for your wonderful videos! I look forward to them every Sunday and sometimes Wednesdays🤓
What a talented young man Thomas is! Such a beautiful family!!
Thank you Nicki and Carlo for another beautiful vlog. Yes we love your vlogs for the tranquil, calm and happy times you share with us. Thank you🌸
Stuck in isolation with covid, this made my day...
Thank you so much for always being the sunshine 🌞
I am in absolute agreement with your words of wisdom. Well said Nicki. I also love your vlogs about you and your family and the beautiful coastline of your home and surrounding areas. Thank you for sharing this with us. xx
Part of being aware of the world’s problems is an appreciation of the good things in our life (especially men who cook for us and puppies🥰).
Well done with your decision on the happenings in the world. We all I’m sure are deeply concerned and saddened by it all, but having a opinion on social media isn’t really what your channel is about. So well done. Another lovely video ❤️🇬🇧
Another great video.....thank you!! I'm a nurse in the UK & your videos help me to decompress & relax. I also love animals. Hollie is a sweetie & Indie is such a scamp...as puppies are. 🐾❤
Absolutely right Nicki! Agreed 💯I thank you for showing us beautiful Italy and sharing your lives with us! I imagine myself being there smelling the air and taking in the beautiful sights that Italy has to offer! We are not immune to what is going on in the world but we have to remember what is truly important in life! So thank you Nicki 😊🤗😘❤🙏 love seeing Holly and Indie enjoying each other 😀❤
Your AMAZING!!! THANK YOU FOR YOUR SMILES & KINDNESS!!!! YOU MAKE OUR WORLD A MUCH BETTER PLACE!!!!
I love to see Tomaso cook! Carlo always has such a proud look on his face. Lovely kitchen. Pups are so happy together. I did not know that about puppies ('not too many steps'). Good to start pup off early on scooter. Indie seemed to be enjoying it. Fun family adventure.
Your picnic on the beach reminds us to live each day as if it were our last, to enjoy each and every one in our lives and to cherish the life that we have. We can be sad to think of what is happening in the world, but we cannot stop living our lives to the best of our abilites. keep on spreading the light and love that is the Amalfi coast. Thank you for your videos.
Keep up your great content. Don’t worry about what the critics say because we love you guys. Discovered you during pandemic and you guys kept me going through that time.
I think we all love that you give us some escapism. This Channel including the music and amazing drone videos have helped me immensely during these hard couple of years. Thank you guys so much !
Loved the sentiments expressed in the beginning parts of the video, and absolutely enjoyed the rest of your video ❤️
Thank you for being you and for keeping it “normal” here. I appreciate it so very much. This is my “escape” and I am ever so grateful 💕.
Stressful day today so this just hits the spot like a soothing cup of coffee or tea 🧡. Thank you Nikki, Carlo & family & friends.
Thank you so much for the lovely video, which helps me to forget for a moment about everything what's happening just across the border from Poland, where I currently stay. Stay safe and happy :)
Love your videos! My husband and I watch them to escape the news so I completely agree with your choice of not addressing world events. Don't let negative people's comments impact you! In a world where we are bombarded with bad/sad news 24x7 it is refreshing to watch you, your family (including the furry ones) and friends living life to the fullest in such a beautiful setting. Thank you for providing such a lovely escape!
I have tears of joy watching that risotto being made.
Love the new kitchen! Great job on it. Thanks for being a ray of light in this world and allowing us to be part of you and your families lives.
You are our “breath of fresh air”. You are our “vacation”, and for this I thank you. Your introductory comments are right on and I for one am glad you will continue to “do you”. Wishing you a wonderful spring, hugs from Canada
Loved this vlog - very relaxing . Gréât to see how happy holly is with Indie. Respect for sitting on a bike filming and holding a puppy who clearly enjoyed herself . And Tomass looks great with a beard and cooking for you guys too ! Lucky you ! Thanks for sharing 🙏🏻
Not only escapism but also inspirational for what a bit of vision and hard work can achieve. Love the new Kitchen. Indie seemed quite comfortable on the scooter and I am sure will gain confidence with each ride. Thank you again for sharing this little part of your week.
What a wonderful calm video, from a lovely picnic on the beach to a mouthwatering seafood risotto. Indie is doing really well with her training! Just love your family❣ Ciao for now 🇮🇹🤗
Escapism is what we need now. Thank you for all of your videos to put a smile on our faces.
I thank you for your comments at the start of this week's video.
I believe we each contribute what we do best- and if we all do that initially- then the world is a richer place because we all benefit from what each person contributes.
I'm an old woman now- who has lived that philosophy for many decades.
You have contributed so much to 170K + of us for years now. You have reduced our stress- given us beauty, humor, community, travel, and personal insights.
That in itself is enough.
Of course you're an empathetic and authentic person- and we who have been with you during all of these months know this about you. So thank you!
I do have a question: What is Skye doing? Planning for her future? We see her home- and love her young input.
LIfe has been…you know…but to return to these videos - pure joy! thank you for still being there! Love Love Love!!!
Nicky,you have a gift; you make people all around the world happy. And relaxed. So thank you! I look forward to every Sunday, and your vlog. And to see Holly. Just love her. And Indie is supercute as well. You and Carlo are so kind. You share some of your life with us. Thanks! Love from Norway 🌸
Your new kitchen is lovely, and I look forward to seeing the tiles you designed. Thank you for the smile you put upon my face while I enjoy you videos.
You are so right Nicki - we do come to escape into your beautiful videos and not to discuss world affairs. I am finding I'm always smiling all the way through them and any anxieties I have about the challenges we may face, fade away. Thank you once again for a peek into your life. XX
“ Hello everywhere “ always makes me chuckle. The risotto looked delicious 😋
Dear Nicki and Carlo your videos are amazing and nice for our souls through the covid and of course now! Keep up the good work! Greetings from Athens, Greece!
Thank you Nicki~ Family & Friends!
Very Uplifting & Spirit~ GOD Bless :)
My only complaint about your videos is that they are over too soon! I love your advice about making the most of each day. So many times lately I have felt like a bear in a two year hibernation! Time for me to wake up! Lovely to see Tommy, his risotto looks amazing! Thanks again for bringing some sunshine and cheer into our lives!🥰
My husband and I enjoy your videos and have for a long time . The kitchen remodel is gorgeous, even without the tiles.
