Method

  • step 1

    Heat the oil in a pressure cooker. Stir in the onions and sweat gently for 8-10 mins until soft but not coloured, stirring occasionally. Stir the rice into the onions until completely coated in the oil, then stir continuously until the rice is shiny and the edges of the grain start to look transparent.

  • step 2

    Pour in the wine and simmer until totally evaporated. Pour in the stock, close the lid and bring up to high pressure. Cook for 5 mins, then release the pressure quickly. Place the pan back on a low heat and stir through the prawns and peas. Simmer gently until the prawns change colour. The risotto should be creamy and slightly soupy.

  • step 3

    Stir through the chilli, lemon juice and remaining olive oil. Let the risotto rest for a few mins, then serve, scattering over the lemon zest.

Are the cooking times the same for half the quantity?

This is the best risotto recipe I have used. Totally yummy, all of my family loved it. Will definitely be a keeper. During this crazy heatwave it was perfect for a yummy tea with little hot cooking time. Thank you x

Loved it - but I must admit I did use ready cooked prawns and far fewer than the 400g stated and it was still great.

Dead easy to make; sitting down to eat within half an hour. I'm not a fish fan but the family loved it and have asked for it again. Didn't have white wine, so just added bit more stock. Really quick, healthy mid-week meal for busy evenings.

Thanks for this. My family don’t like wine in food so I’ll do what you did.

Looks lovely, would halving the the ingredients - producing two servings - affect the cooking time?
