Ingredients
- 500 g rice (Carnaroli) shopping list
- 350 g green peas (fresh) shopping list
- 100 g butter shopping list
- 60 g onion shopping list
- 30 g parsley (fresh leaves) shopping list
- 30 g salt shopping list
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper shopping list
How to make it
- Sauté finely minced onion on butter and when transparent add green peas and parsley leaves (it will be even better if you use baby onions). Add some water and cook until green peas are almost soft (skip this if you use canned green peas, just sauté onion a bit).
- At the moment peas are soft; all liquid must evaporate, but be careful not to burn green peas. Add some more butter and whole rice. Sauté it until rice become greasy with butter, than add water, salt and pepper.
- Usual measure of the manufacturer for cooking rice is 1:3 (rice: water), so do it as they say. Cook rice stirring occasionally until rice is done. Put rice in casserole pot (greased with some butter) and put it in preheated oven (180°C) for 15 minutes. Serve hot.
