Salmon and Pea Risotto with Parmesan Cheese | Birds Eye

A must for fish lovers and a great meal-in-one - salmon, peas and rice are the perfect match.

Our method

  1. Pour the oil into a wide sauté pan and set over a low heat. Gently fry the diced onion until soft.
  2. Stir in the rice, making sure it is well coated in the fat. Fry for 2 more minutes, then stir in 2–3 ladles of the vegetable stock. Keep stirring regularly, adding more stock as the rice absorbs the liquid.
  3. Meanwhile poach the salmon in a little vegetable stock. Then cook the peas according to the packet instructions.
  4. After about 20 minutes all the stock will be absorbed and the rice should be cooked, with a slight bite.
  5. Now add the salmon, peas and stock from poaching the fish to the risotto. Stir in the Parmesan, finish with the butter, season and serve.

Tip!

  • Make sure you add the stock when it is still hot or it will take too long to boil and you might overcook the rice. You don't want a soggy risotto!
