Instructions
• Boil the kettle. Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • Thinly slice carrot into rounds. Slice lemon into wedges. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. Add pork mince and carrot and cook, breaking up with a spoon, until just browned, 4-5 minutes.
TIP: For best results, drain the oil from the pan before adding the arborio rice.
• To the pan, add arborio rice, garlic paste and garlic & herb seasoning and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 minute. • Remove from the heat then add thickened cream, chicken stock pot, the boiling water (2 cups for 2 people / 4 cups for 4 people) and a pinch of salt and pepper. • Stir to combine then transfer the risotto mixture to a medium baking dish. Cover tightly with foil and bake until the liquid has been absorbed and the rice is ‘al dente’, 24-28 minutes.
• Stir through half the Parmesan cheese, a squeeze of lemon juice, the butter and baby spinach leaves and season to taste.
TIP: Add a drizzle of water to the risotto if it looks a little dry.
• Divide the creamy pork and spinach risotto between bowls. • Sprinkle over the remaining Parmesan cheese. • Serve with any remaining lemon wedges. Enjoy!
