Runner bean, rocket and roasted pepper risotto

What to do

  • Melt butter and oil in a pan, add rice and garlic. Mix well. Add a ladleful of hot stock and stir well, simmer and repeat until all stock is added and the rice is just cooked.
  • Slice beans and add for the final 3 minutes of cooking. Stir in the rocket (save some to garnish) and pepper strips, mix well and serve topped with rocket and Parmesan.
