- Dissolve the stock cube in 500ml of hot water and add a little to the saucepan mix, along with the Lemon Juice. Bubble over a medium heat, stirring constantly. When almost all the liquid has been absorbed, add more liquid and the courgette. Keep adding the stock Liquid, stirring every now and then until the rice is just tender and creamy.

Add the cheese, lemon zest and juice, courgettes and peas to the pan and stir well. This courgette, lemon and basil risotto is topped with Grana Padano cheese (costs less than parmesan but works just as well). Stir in the courgettes and rice, coating everything in oil and cook for a few more minutes. Put a splash of olive oil into a wide-bottomed saucepan and put the onion and celery in and place on medium heat. I like to put a small pinch of salt at this stage to stop the onion from colouring.
