Steps:
- To prepare the sweet peas: Fill a mixing bowl with cold water, then add plenty of ice cubes to make the water ice cold.
- Bring a small saucepan of water to a boil. Add the sweet peas and blanch for 1 minute. Drain and immediately transfer to ice water. Let cool for 5 minutes, then drain and pat dry.
- Measure out 1 cup (250 ml) sweet peas and set aside. Using a hand blender, puree the remaining peas with the water and a pinch of salt. (You can also mash the peas and water together with a fork, then season it with salt and mix well. It's okay if the puree isn't super smooth.)
- To prepare the risotto: Pour the broth in a medium saucepan. Bring to a slow simmer, then lower the heat, cover and gently simmer for 5 minutes. Lower the heat to the minimum, then keep warm.
- In a large saute pan or a cast-iron braiser set over medium-low heat, melt the butter in the olive oil. Add the shallot and cook, stirring, until soft, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the risotto rice and stir for 2 minutes, until the grains are translucent around the edges. Add the wine and stir vigorously while the wine is bubbling up, scraping down the bottom of the pan to loosen the caramelized bits. Simmer until the wine is fully absorbed. Add 1 ladleful of the broth and simmer, stirring from time to time, until the broth is almost completely absorbed. Continue adding broth, one ladleful at a time, allowing each ladle to be absorbed before adding more.
- When there's about 1 cup (250 ml) of broth left, stir in the sweet pea puree into the risotto. Add ½ cup (125 ml) broth, stir and keep cooking until the broth is almost fully absorbed. Stir in the grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese. Stir until the cheese is fully melted and incorporated. Stir in the blanched sweet peas. Season with black pepper, taste the risotto, and season with salt if needed. Stir in the remaining broth. The risotto should now be loose and super creamy. Cover and turn off the heat. The risotto can stand for about 5 minutes but should be served as soon as possible for the best texture.
- SERVING: Serve the risotto in warm bowls, then garnish each serving with a drizzle of flavorful extra-virgin olive oil, fresh mint leaves, and some freshly ground black pepper, if desired. Serve immediately.
- STORAGE: This sweet pea risotto is best enjoyed within minutes of being made. If you do have leftovers, refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 2 days. To reheat, transfer to a nonstick skillet, add a couple tablespoonfuls of broth or water and warm up over medium-low until the risotto is loose and hot. Serve immediately.
- MAKE IT VEGETARIAN: Make sure to use vegetable broth.

Steps:
- Grate Parmesan into small bowl and set aside; transfer rind to small pot. Add pea pods (or 1 cup frozen peas) and 5 cups water; bring to a boil, then simmer 10 minutes. Strain, discard solids and return pea stock to pot; keep warm on low. In blender, puree 1 cup each peas and pea stock until smooth.
- Melt 2 tablespoons butter in large saucepan on medium. Add shallot and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook until tender, about 2 minutes.
- Add rice and cook, stirring to coat and toast, about 5 minutes. Add wine and simmer until nearly evaporated, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add stock, 3/4 cup at a time, stirring often until nearly absorbed before adding more. Stir in pea puree and simmer until rice is nearly tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in remaining peas.
- Remove risotto from heat. Finely grate zest of lemon and squeeze juice from 1 lemon half into risotto, then stir in grated Parmesan and remaining 2 tablespoons butter.
- Squeeze juice of remaining lemon half into bowl; toss with pea shoots, olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Serve over risotto.

Steps:
- In a medium pot, add the chicken stock and bring to a simmer over medium-low heat.
- Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a saucepan over a medium-low heat. Add the onions, garlic and a touch of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until the onions are translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the rice and increase the heat to medium-high. Toast the rice, stirring, until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add the white wine and cook until it has reduced to almost dry and you hear a sizzle. Add the simmering chicken stock 1 cup at a time and cook, continuously stirring, until it has absorbed almost all the way. Repeat this process until the rice is almost cooked; this will range from 15 to 20 minutes, depending on your rice. The rice kernels should still be a little al dente and the risotto should be creamy and a pourable consistency, not dry or clumpy.
- In a small saucepan, add about 1/2 cup simmering chicken stock and 2 tablespoons butter. Add the peas, then season with a little salt and pepper and stir. Place over low heat and cook until the peas are warmed through. Add the chives and tarragon. Transfer half of the peas to a bowl and mash with a muddler or fork. Return the mashed peas back to the pot of peas and keep warm. If the mixture looks dry, add 1/4 cup more of the stock.
- When the risotto is finished, shut the heat off and add the remaining 3 tablespoons butter, 2 tablespoon olive oil, half the Parmesan and all the lemon zest. Let it sit for 1 to 2 minutes. Stir and taste for seasoning. Add a little more Parmesan if needed. Add the white balsamic vinegar and lemon juice and stir. Garnish with more Parmesan and the pea mixture. Serve in warm bowls or on warm plates.
SWEET PEA, SCALLOP AND MINT RISOTTO
Steps:
- Place a large, deep skillet over medium heat and pour in 3 tablespoons olive oil. Add shallots and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes, until soft. Stir in rice and half of the chopped mint making sure to coat all the rice grains with the oil. Add wine and cook until most of the liquid (as well as the alcohol) has evaporated. Season with a little salt and pepper. Ladle in 1 cup of hot stock. Using a wooden spoon, stir gently until most of the stock has been absorbed. Keep adding stock a cup at a time and stirring. After about 10 to 15 minutes, test the rice. It should be cooked and creamy but still have a slight bite to it. (You may not need all of the stock.) Gently fold in peas and 1/4 cup butter. Stir in the parmesan cheese and taste for seasoning. Remove from heat and cover while you sear the scallops.
- Set a non-stick saute pan over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter. Pat the scallops with paper towels to make sure they are very dry. Season on both sides with salt and pepper. Add scallops to pan, making sure not to overcrowd, and cook until they are nicely browned on both sides, about 4 to 8 minutes depending on the size of your scallops.
- Check the risotto and add a bit more stock if it has gotten too thick. In a shallow bowl or plate, make a nice mound of risotto and top with 3 or 4 scallops. Garnish with remaining mint and a drizzle of olive oil. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Melt the butter in a large pan, add the onion and gently sweat for about 10 mins until really soft. Meanwhile, put 100g peas into a food processor with a ladleful of stock and whizz until completely puréed.
- Stir the rice into the onion, increase heat to medium and sizzle the rice for 1 min. Pour in the wine, then bubble and stir until completely absorbed. Continue cooking like this, adding a ladleful of stock at a time, and stirring continuously until the rice is tender and has a good creamy consistency - this will take 20-30 mins.
- Stir in the puréed peas, remaining peas, Parmesan and some seasoning, then turn off the heat and leave to stand for a few mins. Give the risotto a final stir, spoon into shallow bowls and top with some pea shoots and a drizzle of olive oil, if you like.
