- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 parsnip, finely diced
- 2 medium carrots, finely diced
- 350g risotto rice, such as arborio
- 1 bay leaf
- 1.2l hot vegetable or chicken stock
- 140g frozen peas or petit pois
- 50g parmesan (or vegetarian alternative), grated
METHOD
- Heat
the oil in a large shallow pan. Tip in the onion, parsnip and carrots,
cover and gently fry for 8 mins until the onion is very soft.
- Stir
in the rice and bay leaf, then gently fry for another 2-3 mins until
the rice starts to turn see-through around the edges. Add 300ml of the
stock and simmer over a gentle heat, stirring until it has all been
absorbed. Carry on adding the hot stock, a ladleful at a time, letting
it be absorbed before adding more. Continue until the rice is just
cooked and all the stock has been used, adding a little more water or
stock if needed. This will take 18-20 mins.
- Remove the bay leaf from the cooked risotto and stir in the peas.
Heat through for a few mins, then add most of the Parmesan and season to
taste. Sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan and serve.
