Cooking Instructions:
  • 1. TO COOK THE LEEKS:

    Place a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Once hot, add the sliced leeks, season with salt and cook for 2-3 mins stirring regularly.

  • 2. TO PREPARE THE BARLEY RISOTTO:

    Open the bag of steamed barley, squeezing gently on the bag to break up any large clumps. Add the barley to the pan with the leeks, season with salt and cook for 2-3 mins stirring regularly. Pour in the sun-dried tomato sauce and peas and cook for 1-2 mins. Crumble over the feta and remove from the heat.

  • TO SERVE:

    Spoon sun-dried tomato barley risotto into bowls. Top with a handful of rocket and a dollop of mint salsa verde. Sprinkle over toasted pinenuts and hemp seeds. Serve with a grind of freshly cracked pepper and remaining rocket on the side.
