A one pot meal we always enjoy is risotto and its a great store cupboard meal, if you have frozen prawns, peas, arborio rice and stock on hand its easy to whip up
Ingredients:
- one cup of cooked prawns / or tiny little shrimp
- one head of broccoli finely chopped
- two cups of vegetable stock
- 4 cloves of garlic chopped
- 1/2 red onion chopped
- 1/4 cup of white wine
- 2 cups of water
- one cup of Arborio Rice
- one cup frozen peas
- a little butter
Method:
- saute the onion and garlic in olive oil for about 5 minutes, add the wine and allow it to reduce
- then add the broccoli, a little butter and peas
- add rice along with the vegetable stock and stir, keep stirring the rice as the stock evaporates then add water, until it is cooked it will be soft with a little bite to it. This will take about 30-40 minutes
- add grated Parmesan to the top and enjoy
