PREPARATION TIME 5 MINUTES

COOKING TIME 35 MINUTES

1 red onion, finely chopped

1 garlic clove, crushed

100g pancetta

275g (dry weight) Arborio risotto rice

2 tablespoons white wine

600ml vegetable stock

225g frozen peas

1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

freshly ground black pepper

1 tablespoon grated Rosemary Conley mature cheese to garnish

1 Heat a non-stick pan, and dry-fry the onion and garlic until soft.

2 Add the pancetta, rice and wine, then gradually stir in the stock, allowing the rice to absorb it before adding more (this will take between 15 and 20 minutes).

3 Once all the liquid has been added, stir in the frozen peas. Season with black pepper to taste.

4 Just before serving stir in the parsley. Serve in warmed bowls and top with a little grated cheese.


TIP Adding the frozen peas right at the end prevents them from overcooking
