Ingredients

Olive oil

1 tbs

Brown onion

1 medium, finely chopped

Fennel

1 small, trimmed, thinly sliced

Garlic

2 clove(s), crushed

Fresh lemon rind

1 tsp, finely grated

Ground chilli

½ tsp, (flakes)

Arborio rice

Canned diced tomatoes

400 g

Rocket

50 g, shredded

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C or 160°C fan-forced. Heat the oil in a large flameproof casserole dish over medium heat. Add the onion and fennel and cook, stirring, for 3–5 minutes or until softened. Add the garlic, rind and chilli and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Add the rice and stir to combine.

  3. Stir in the rocket and parmesan. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Serve.
