Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 onion, halved and then thinly sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 spring onions, sliced
1 medium leek, halved lengthwise and then sliced
150 g long-grain white rice
750 ml vegetable stock
1/2 tsp dried oregano
3 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
2 tbsp pine nuts
Salt
Black pepper

Steps:

•Heat the oil in a large frying pan or wok, and add the onion, garlic, spring onions and leek. Cook over a medium-low heat for around 5 minutes, until the vegetables are soft. Add the rice, and cook for a further 2-3 minutes. •Next, add the vegetable stock and oregano. Mix well, and leave to simmer gently over a fairly low heat, stirring every few minutes. The rice will absorb the stock, and any excess moisture will disappear. At this point, check that the rice is fully cooked - add a dash more water if not, and cook for a few more minutes. •When the rice is cooked and there is no more excess water, add the fresh parsley and pine nuts, and season to taste.
