Add the rest of the beef stock a ladleful at a time, adding more once the previous ladleful has been absorbed, until the rice is nearly cooked. Stir in the passata then tip in the roasted minced beef, mushrooms, tomato purée and Worcestershire sauce, celery salt and oregano. Bring to a simmer, adding a little more water if it looks dry. Stir in ae of the mozzarella. Sprinkle the rest over the top with the parmesan. Put in the oven for 25 minutes, uncovered, until golden and bubbling.
