Method
- Heat a large knob of butter in a pan and add the onion. Cook for 3 minutes then stir in the rice.
- Add a ladleful of stock and stir, until absorbed. Keep adding stock until you have used it all. The rice should be plump and tender.
- Stir in the peas and simmer for 2 minutes. Stir in the mint and season. If you're fond of Parmesan, sprinkle some on before serving.
