Ingredients

  • 4 rashers Co-op Irresistible hickory BBQ streaky bacon
  • 25g Co-op unsalted butter
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 200g risotto rice
  • 850ml vegetable stock
  • 100g tenderstem broccoli
  • 25g Co-op Parmesan, grated

Method

  1. Dry fry the bacon in a large non-stick pan for 5 mins, until crisp, and set aside

  3. Add the rice to the pan and stir until coated in the butter
  4. Slowly add the stock a little at a time, until almost all the liquid has been absorbed by the rice. Stir frequently and continue adding the stock, until it's all been added and the rice is tender (this will take about 20 mins)
  5. Meanwhile, bring a saucepan of water to the boil and add the broccoli. Cook for 3-4 mins, until wilted, then drain
  6. Season the rice with pepper and stir through three-quarters of the Parmesan and half the broccoli
