recipe

  • Step 1
    Boil 25 cl of water per person and dissolve the stock cubes.
  • Step 2
    Remove the ends of the leeks*, keeping only the white parts. Chop finely. Place in a colander, rinse well to remove any dirt. *Check out our tips for this step
  • Step 3
    Add the strained leeks to a dry frying pan (no oil) and cook on a high heat for 2 minutes, stirring. Add a ladle of stock and cook for 2 more minutes.
  • Step 4
    Add the rice. Add a ladle of stock and leave it to absorb, adding another one afterwards.
  • Step 5
    Continue until there's no more stock left. After 18-20 minutes, the rice should be cooked.
  • Step 6
    If after 20 minutes the rice isn't cooked, add a bit more water and continue to cook. When it's cooked, add the parmesan, butter (optional: add a bit of cream), salt, pepper and mix well.
  • Step 7
    Serve on plates, season, and serve!

♻️ Zero waste tip

For a zero-waste dish, use the discarded leek stalks to make soup ! Rinse well & remove all damaged, dry & yellow parts before adding to your pot with the ingredients of your choosing.
