- Add the rice and stir through the onions, cooking for a minute before adding the wine.
- Allow the wine to reduce, stirring to coat the rice, then add a ladle of the stock. Once the stock is reduced, add another ladle and repeat the process until the stock is all used and the rice is just cooked.
- Add the peas and lemon zest with the final ladle of stock.
- Finish with grated parmesan, butter chopped herbs and a squeeze of lemon. And don’t forget to mix the chicken through.
chocolate orange Tiramisu
Ingredients – Serves 2:
- 200ml of double cream
- 100g of mascarpone
- 1x orange
- 2tsp of caster sugar
- 1tbsp of hot chocolate mix dissolved in 70ml of water
- 100g of lady finger biscuits
- 1tbsp of cocoa powder
- 1tbsp of grated dark chocolate
Method:
- Put the double cream and sugar into mixing bowl and whish until semi-whipped. Add mascarpone, orange zest and fold together.
- Pour the dissolved hot chocolate into a shallow dish and add orange juice. Dip in a few of the sponge fingers at a time, turning for a few seconds until they are nicely soaked, but not soggy. Layer these in a dish until you’ve used half the sponge fingers, then spread over half of the creamy mixture.
- Using the coarse side of the grater, grate over most of the dark chocolate. Then repeat the layers, finishing with the creamy layer.
- Cover and chill for a bit to firm up (you can speed it up by whipping a bit more firmly). Will keep in the fridge for up to two days.
- To serve, dust with the cocoa powder and grate over the remainder of the chocolate.
