Ingredients

  • 175g fresh broad beans, double-podded (optional)
  • 175g fresh peas
  • 150g asparagus, trimmed and cut into 3cm lengths
  • 1 chicken or vegetable stock cube
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 celery stick, chopped
  • 250g Cooks’ Ingredients Carnaroli Risotto Rice
  • 75ml vermouth or dry sherry
  • 3 tbsp Parmigiano Reggiano, grated
  • 25g butter
  • 25g flat-leaf parsley, chopped

Method

  1. Add the beans, peas and asparagus to a pan of simmering water and cook for 3 - 4 minutes until just al dente. Drain and reserve the water. Use this water and the stock cube to make up 1.2 litres of stock, and keep it simmering in a pan

  2. Put the onion and celery in a medium non-stick pan. Cook over a medium heat for 3 minutes until soft and golden. Add the rice and stir for 1 minute, then the vermouth or dry sherry. Add the stock a ladleful at a time and keep stirring until each one is absorbed. This will take 15 - 20 minutes.

  3. When the rice is almost tender, add the beans, peas and asparagus and cook for a couple of minutes to heat through. Stir in the cheese, butter and parsley off the heat and season to taste.
