Method
- Finely chop the onion and the garlic clove. Boil 650 ml of water.
- In a medium pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat and soften the onion with a pinch of salt for 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 30 seconds.
- Add the long-grain rice and stir for 1 minute. Add the frozen peas (no need to thaw), pour in the boiling water and add the salt.
- Stir once and cook uncovered over medium heat for about 8 minutes, until the water drops to the level of the rice. Cover, turn the heat to the lowest setting and leave for 8 minutes.
- Turn off the heat, rest covered for 5 minutes and fluff with a fork before serving.
Shopping tip
Frozen peas are in every chain and are sweeter than tinned. Fresh peas in season go in the same way but need 2 more minutes.
