Method
- Make 1.2 litres of hot stock (2 cubes) with the cubes. Fry the bacon (150g) until crisp (5 min) and take out half for later.
- Soften the chopped onion (1) with the rest of the bacon (5 min). Stir in the rice (300g) for a minute (risotto rice is best).
- Add a ladle of stock at a time, stirring, letting each be absorbed before adding the next (18 min).
- Add the peas (300g) with the last ladles of stock (3 min).
- Take off the heat and beat in the butter (30g) and parmesan (50g). Rest (2 min), then top with the crispy bacon.
