Ingredients

50ml olive oil
1-2 onion - finely chopped
1 bunch of asparagus - washed, cut in 3-4 lengths
450 Arborio rice
1.3 l vegetable stock
125 g parmesan cheese -grated

Directions

Heat the olive oil in a pan and fry the onion till soft/light brown. Add the rice and stir till the oil has been absorbed. Add vegetable stock one ladle-full at a time. Stir completely and then let simmer until that liquid is nearly absorbed. Continue adding broth by the ladle-full until rice is cooked. Stir in the asparagus and season with pepper and salt. Remove pan from heat and gently stir in half of the parmesan cheese. Serve with the rest of the grated parmesan.

We love the diversity of produce we receive in our veg bag delivery. We get the staple veg as well as new and unusual vegetables and greens. Our kids learn about UK grown food and when it comes into season and we love supporting local.
