– 4 cups (1L) Coles Real Vegetable Stock

– 1 1/2 cups (375ml) water

– 25g Coles Australian Butter

– 1 brown onion, finely chopped

– 125g white cup or flat mushrooms, quartered

4 Method / Steps

Step 1

Preheat oven to 220C. Combine the sweet potato and 1 tbsp oil in a small baking dish. Roast for 10 mins. Add zucchini and roast for 8-10 mins or until vegetables are lightly browned and tender.

Step 2

Meanwhile, bring the stock and water to the boil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered.

Step 3

Heat the butter and remaining 1 tbsp oil in a large heavy-based saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, mushroom and garlic and cook, stirring, for 3-4 mins or until onion softens. Add the rice. Cook, stirring, for 1 min or until the grains appear glassy. Reduce heat to low. Add the stock, 1 ladleful at a time. Stir with a wooden spoon until all the liquid has been absorbed. Repeat with remaining stock (this should take about 25 mins).

Step 4

Add sweet potato mixture and peas to rice mixture with the last ladleful of stock. Cook for 2-3 mins or until heated through (the rice should be tender but firm to the bite). Stir in the parmesan. Serve.
