Making a risotto has never been easier. No more continuously stirring over a hot stove! Just place the ingredients in the slow cooker, walk away and return to a delicious meal packed with flavour.
Step 1Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium heat and cook fennel for 5min until beginning to soften. Add shallot and fry for 5-8min, stirring occasionally, until veg are nearly cooked through. Add garlic and rice to the pan and fry for a couple of min, until rice looks glossy and is beginning to turn translucent at the ends. Add white wine and bubble for 30sec.
Step 2Add mixture to bowl of a slow cooker and stir in the stock and some seasoning. Cover and cook on high for 1hr 45min. Stir in prawns and preserved lemons. Recover and cook for 10min until prawns are cooked.
Step 3Stir through Pecorino and check seasoning. Stir in a little extra stock to thin, if needed. Garnish with reserved fennel fronds and serve.
