- add the arborio rice stirring well ensuring all the grains are well coated. Add more margarine if necessary.
- Keep on a low heat and keep stirring until the rice starts to turn translucent (can take about 15 minutes).
- Add a small quantity of wine at a time and it will quickly be absorbed as you keep stirring. Continue until all the wine has been added and absorbed.
- Next do the same with the half of the stock, just gradually add a little at a time and add more until it has been absorbed. Now add the ground pepper and a little salt, then the asparagus
- Start adding the remainder of the stock, the peas and the 3/4 of the grated parmesan, stirring continually.
- Keep stirring until all the stock has been absorbed. The risotto should have a creamy consistency, with the rice and vegetables cooked 'al dente'.
- If more cooking is required, just add a little more stock and keep stirring.
- Serve right away, garnished with the remainder of the grated parmesan and a few sprigs of parsley.
- Serve up with a nice glass of chilled white wine.
