Lemony Pea and Broad<br />

Bean Red Rice Risotto<br />

Serves 2<br />

Prep time: 10 minutes<br />

Cook time: 49 minutes<br />

A delicious, comforting dish. Red rice has a wonderful nutty flavour and<br />

is rich in fibre and antioxidants, making it a healthier option than white<br />

refined rice.<br />

Ingredients<br />

1 tbsp olive oil<br />

2 garlic cloves, crushed<br />

1 red onion, finely chopped<br />

500ml hot vegetable stock<br />

125g Camargue red rice<br />

Zest of 1 lemon<br />

1 tbsp lemon juice<br />

100g frozen peas<br />

100g shelled broad beans (fresh or frozen)<br />

4 asparagus spears cut into 2cm pieces<br />

1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese<br />

Method<br />

1. Heat the oil in a large shallow pan and sauté the onion and garlic for<br />

5 minutes. Add the rice and stir to coat in the oil.<br />

2. Add the vegetable stock. Bring to the boil then simmer covered for<br />

40 minutes, stirring occasionally.<br />

3. Add the lemon, peas, broad beans and asparagus and cook for a<br />

further 4 minutes until tender.<br />

4. Spoon into bowls and scatter over the Parmesan to serve.<br />
