Ingredients

  • 200g fresh tomatoes, chopped

  • 1 tbsp Mr Organic extra virgin olive oil

  • 1 clove of garlic, chopped

  • 1 handful basil leaves

  • 2 tbsp Mr Organic sundried tomato pesto

  • Salt & Black Pepper

  • 100 g Mr Organic sundried tomatoes, roughly chopped

  • 1 tbsp vegan butter

  • 1 Red onion, finely chopped

  • 225g Mr Organic carnaroli risotto rice

  • 275 ml dry white wine

  • 1 tbsp nutritional yeast

  • 1 tbsp cashew nuts, soaked

  • 1/2 - 1 litre water

Method

Turn your oven for 200 celsius. Roast tomatoes for 20 mins with a little salt & pepper, oil, and garlic. Once it is roasted add basil, then blend in a blender.

Add vegan butter to a pan, add red onion until translucent. Add sun-dried tomatoes for 2 minutes, then add the rice & pesto & roasted tomato mix, stir well.

Slowly add a little white wine and stir well, when the rice has soaked up the liquid keep adding the wine little by little.

Place the soaked cashews in a blender alongside the water and nutritional yeast, blend until smooth. Add to the pan & stir well.

Cook until the texture is smooth and creamy and the rice has soaked up the liquid. If the mix gets too dry, add more water little by little.
