Ingredients

  • baby plum tomatoes 300 g
  • shallot 1 (sliced)
  • garlic cloves 2 (crushed)
  • dried sage 1 tsp
  • tomato purée 2 tbsp
  • risotto rice (arborio) 300 g
  • vegetable stock cube 1
  • olive oil dash

Method

  • Slice the tomatoes in half. Thinly slice the shallot. Crush the garlic.
  • Heat a dash of oil in a large pot on a medium-high heat. Add the shallot and garlic and cook for 3 minutes.
  • Add the rice and toast in the pan for a few minutes. Add the tomatoes and tomato puree then cook for 2 minutes. Break the tomatoes down with the back of a spoon to help them release their juices. Add the dried sage.
  • Make up the vegetable stock cubes with 200ml boiling water per serving. Pour the vegetable stock into the pot.
  • Reduce the heat to a low simmer for 20 minutes until it is the desired consistency. Make sure to stir every few minutes.
  • When all the stock has been absorbed, sprinkle with some pepper. Plate up and enjoy!
