David Beckham spends retirement doing school run and cooking risotto

David Beckham has told how his new life after football is about taking his children to school and perfecting his signature dish, Milanese risotto with saffron

       David Beckham say he is spending his time cooking his family's favourite.

   

The footballer retired and moved his family to London earlier this year, and said he is enjoying having more time to spend with his family.

Retirement for Beckham means he has more time to dedicate to the routine of being a dad, including sharing bacon sandwiches with his youngest child, Harper, as he takes her to playschool.

It also gives him the chance to perfect his skills in the kitchen, and his family’s favourite dish of his repertoire - Milanese risotto with saffron.

Beckham says while retiring from football was difficult, and gives him “a pang of regret” when he watches sport, he values now being able to be at home with his children

He admits he does the majority of cooking at home, using the skills he learnt from a six month culinary course he took while living in Italy and playing for AC Milan. read more...
