Try our family-friendly and immensely satisfying salmon and pea risotto.

Method

Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan.

Step 2

Set a wide based, large pan over a low-medium heat. Add half of the butter, the garlic and diced onion. Fry gently for 2-3 minutes then add the arborio rice. Coat the rice well in the butter, garlic and onion mixture. At this stage, you may want to add the white wine to the rice, but it's entirely optional.

Step 3

Next add the hot stock a ladle at a time, stirring often until almost all of the stock has been absorbed. This will take about 17 minutes

Step 4

Meanwhile, season the salmon fillets, place on a lined baking tray and bake for 8-10 minutes, until just cooked

Step 5

When you have about a ladleful of stock left, add it to the rice along with the peas. Continue to cook for a further few minutes until all the stock has been absorbed and the peas have defrosted.

Step 6

Add grated parmesan, the remaining butter and season to taste. Stir until the risotto is thick and creamy. To serve, divide the risotto between your chosen plates, place the salmon on top and serve.
