Actually, it's a savoury dish........

Tuna and Peanut Risotto (I know, I know - doesn't sound the most appetising, but honestly - it's a taste sensation!)

225g long grain rice
2 cans tuna
4tbsps oil
2 onions
1 green pepper (I used 3 mushrooms instead as had no peppers)
2tsps curry powder
200g salted peanuts
450mls apple juice/cider
100g cooking apple (I used eater)
2tbsps lemon juice
3tbsps sugar - (I only put in a teaspoon - to taste really)

Cook rice in boiling water for 10 mins and drain thoroughly.
Drain tuna and break into chunks.
Heat oil in large saucepan and fry onion and pepper with curry powder for 5 mins.
Grind most of the peanuts in a food blender and add to the pan along with the apple juice, salt, pepper, diced apple, lemon juice and sugar.
Bring to the boil, add rice and tuna.
Simmer uncovered for 10 mins, stirring fregquently.
Transfer to warmed serving dish and serve hot, sprinkled with a few extra peanuts.

This will serve four - I halved the recipe and it's plenty for two.
It's the new fave recipe in the Aero house!

Glad the risotto worked well. I love it too.

Poor kids! Let me know if I can do anything to help ie. fetch medicines, bring round immune children to play with, supply brownies to you etc

Wotchit Fio!!!!

Sorry to butt in but thanks again Cadbury for Dr Who tape. I think you should have got it back today. Are you still meeting Friday in Faversham (can't find meetup thread - me being crap!!)?

Cadbury · 19/04/2005 20:37

Hi Vict17 - yes, I got it this morning, thankyou.

I'll bump up the thread. Looks like it'll be me and turquoise now on Friday (Fio can't make it probably) but I'm still up for meeting. The gist is that we are meeting at 11.30am outside the front of Faversham station and going for luch in a local weatherspoons. I'll have 2 kids with me.

Can you come?

Will this recipe work without curry powder? Unfortunately I hate the stuff but am interested in trying a new recipe.

cod · 11/03/2006 14:11

sorry but gross

Aero · 11/03/2006 14:23

I don't see why not mummycan. Gosh I'd forgotten about this recipe - must make it again.

Cod - have you tried this? It is fab - guess it won't do anything for you if you don't like tuna or peanuts though! Grin
