Dice the onion, cut the garlic into thin slices.

Trim the asparagus and cut into 1-inch/2.5 cm pieces, leaving the heads whole.

Move the onion and garlic to the side of the pan (so that they don’t cook) and add the drained rice, turn heat up to medium high and cook for 2 minutes, until the edges become translucent and the rice is slightly golden.

Step 6

Mix the rice with onion and garlic, then add the wine, cook for 30 seconds until completely evaporated.

Step 7

Step 8

Add the asparagus, bring to a boil, cook for a further 8 minutes.

Step 9

Add the green peas, bring to the boil, cook for 1 minute. The rice should be cooked al dente.

Step 10

Take the pot off the heat, add the parmesan cheese, lemon zest, and juice, cream, season with salt and pepper to taste. The risotto should be creamy and flow when spooned onto a plate (not stick together in a clump).

Step 13

Enjoy!
