Preparation
1
Get prepped

• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced.
• Grate zucchini.
• Zest lemon to get a pinch, then cut into wedges.
• Finely chop garlic.
• Pick thyme leaves (see ingredients).  

2
Bake the risotto

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add zucchini and garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
• Add risotto rice, stirring to combine. Add the water, stock concentrate and thyme, then bring to the boil. Cook, stirring, until combined, 2 minutes.
• Transfer risotto mixture to a large baking dish, then cover tightly with foil. 
• Bake until liquid is absorbed and rice is ‘al dente’, 24-28 minutes. 


TIP: ‘Al dente’ rice is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.  
TIP: Stir through a splash of water to loosen the risotto, if needed. 

3
Cook the prawns

• When the risotto has 5 minutes remaining, wipe out the frying pan and return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil.
• Cook peeled prawns and lemon zest, tossing, until prawns are pink and starting to curl up, 3-4 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.  

4
Finish & serve

• Remove risotto from the oven.
• Stir through baby spinach leaves, the butter, Parmesan cheese and a good squeeze of lemon juice. Season to taste.
• Divide lemon and thyme risotto between plates. Top with prawns and tear over parsley. Serve with any remaining lemon wedges. Enjoy!
