Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 onion peeled and finely chopped
  • 2 large leeks sliced
  • 300 grams risotto rice
  • 1 glass white wine
  • 700 ml vegetable stock
  • 2 courgettes sliced
  • 30 grams Italian hard cheese
  • Handful chopped parsley

Instructions

  • Add the onion to a casserole dish with half of the olive oil. Sweat over a medium heat for two minutes, the add the sliced leeks and cook for a further 2 minutes.
  • Add the risotto rice, stir for 1 minute then add the white wine. Let the wine simmer down.
  • Pour the stock in gradually, stirring often. This process will take around 25 minutes. Top up with water if necessary. The rice should be al dente but getting gloopy.
  • Add the courgettes to the pan; stir well. Pour in the remaining olive oil, grated cheese and chopped parsley then put the lid on the pan, turn the heat off and leave for 5-10 minutes.
  • Take off the lid and stir well – the courgettes should have cooked in the residual heat from the pan.
