Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 tbsp olive oil
100g smoked bacon , diced
2 shallots , chopped
2 garlic cloves , crushed
350g small cooking chorizo
300g risotto rice
1l hot chicken stock
300g frozen broad beans

Steps:

Heat the oil in a medium-sized pan, then add the bacon, shallots, garlic and chorizo. Gently cook for 8 mins, stirring occasionally so everything cooks evenly.
Stir in the rice, coating all over with the cooking juices in the pan. Add just enough stock to cover the rice, bring to a simmer and gently cook until all the liquid is absorbed. Continue adding the stock a ladleful at a time, and gently cook. Just before the final ladleful of stock, add the broad beans and stir through, cooking for 3-4 mins until tender. Remove the chorizo, slice thinly, return to the pan and mix through before serving.
