Remember to defrost your meat! Defrost in the fridge and use within 24 hours, or in a microwave on ‘defrost’ directly before use.
Heat olive oil in a saucepan and cook onion and lean lamb cubes.
Add risotto rice and stir thoroughly.
Add stock and bring to the boil, season and simmer gently for approximately 30 minutes or until the rice is cooked and all the liquid absorbed. (Add a little more stock to achieve your desired texture/consistency).
During the last 5 minutes of the cooking time add sugar snap peas and frozen peas, stir together and cook until sugar snaps just start to soften.
Season and finish off served with a handful of rocket and grated parmesan cheese.
Remember to freeze any portions you dont eat this time to save them from going in the bin. A great time saver for a simple meal another day when you may be busy. Simply defrost in the fridge and use within 24 hours.
This recipe works perfectly with frozen meat. Check what you have in your freezer and defrost meat thoroughly before cooking.
