2 packet
Risoni
(Contains: Gluten, Wheat; May be present: Soy, Eggs. )
Roughly chop the mild chorizo. Finely chop the brown onion. Drain the cherry tomatoes. Finely chop the garlic (or use a garlic press). Zest the lemon to get a pinch. Pick the thyme leaves. TIP: Hold each sprig of thyme at the top and run your fingers down the stalk to remove the leaves.
Heat a small drizzle of olive oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and cook, stirring, until golden and crisp, 5-6 minutes. Add the onion and cook, stirring until softened, 4 minutes. Add the garlic, thyme and lemon zest and cook for 1 minute or until fragrant.
Add the risoni (see ingredients list) to the pan with the chorizo and stir to combine. Add the water and crumble in the vegetable stock. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally until the risoni is 'al-dente' and all the water has been absorbed, 15-17 minutes. TIP: Add a dash more water if your risoni looks dry.
While the risoni is cooking, roughly chop the silverbeet. Slice the lemon into wedges.
Once the risoni is ready and the liquid has been absorbed, stir through the shredded Cheddar cheese, cherry tomatoes and silverbeet. Cover the frying pan with a lid or foil. Cook until the silverbeet has just wilted, 3-5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and season to taste with salt and pepper.
Divide the chorizo, cherry tomato and silverbeet risoni risotto between bowls. Serve with the lemon wedges and chilli flakes (optional).
