• To the pan, stir in risoni, vegetable stock powder, plant-based cream (see ingredients) and the water. • Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, until risoni is 'al dente' and water is absorbed, 12-15 minutes. • Gently stir roasted capsicum and courgette through risoni. Add grated Parmesan cheese and stir to combine. Season to taste.

TIP: Add a splash more water if the risoni looks dry!
