Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Boil the kettle. • Thinly slice leek. Finely chop celery.
• Heat a large ovenproof saucepan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook leek and celery, stirring, until softened, 4-5 minutes. • Add garlic & herb seasoning and arborio rice, and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add cherry tomatoes, vegetable stock powder, the brown sugar and boiling water (21/4 cups for 2 people / 41/2 cups for 4 people). Stir to combine and bring to the boil. Cover tightly with a lid (or foil), then transfer to the oven and bake until liquid is absorbed and rice is 'al dente', 24-28 minutes.
TIP: 'Al dente' rice is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre. TIP: Transfer risotto to a baking dish if you don't have an ovenproof saucepan.
• Meanwhile, roughly chop roasted almonds. • When risotto is done, stir through baby spinach leaves, chargrilled capsicum relish, the butter and half the grated Parmesan cheese. Season to taste.
TIP: If the risotto is dry, add a splash of water and stir through.
• Divide one-pot Mediterranean leek and tomato risotto between bowls. • Top with remaining grated Parmesan cheese. • Tear over parsley and garnish with roasted almonds to serve. Enjoy!
