Smokey Seafood Risotto
Instructions:
- Don't worry the seafood here is Arame, a sea vegetable!
- A little sunflower oil
- 1 onion
- 2 or 3 cloves of garlic
- 1 block of smoked tofu
- a good handful of dried arame
- 500g/18 oz/2 cups basmati rice (this makes a large potful to feed a family - reduce the amount of rice and water accordingly if you want)
- a cupful of frozen peas
- Seasalt to taste
- Water to cover
- Fry the onion and garlic in the oil for a few minutes. Chop the tofu into small cuboids and add to the onion and garlic.
- Add the rice and mix well then add enough water to well cover the rice.
- Add the arame (you may need to add more water as seaweeds vary in how absorbent they are) and the seasalt.
- Bring to the boil then turn down to simmer.
- A few minutes before the end of cooking time add the peas.
- Nice served with a green salad.
