Pea, asparagus and rice soup is a delicious way to eat more greens.
- Preheat oven to 200°C. Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add leek and garlic, and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes or until soft. Add rice and stir. Add stock and water and bring to the boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 12 minutes or until rice is almost tender. Stir in peas and asparagus, and cook for 3 minutes or until tender.
- Meanwhile, to make the Romano sticks, use a vegetable peeler to shave half the cheese. Finely grate remaining cheese. Cut pastry in half, then each half into 8 slices. Place slices on an oven tray lined with baking paper. Sprinkle with grated cheese. Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes or until puffed and golden.
- Stir parsley into soup. Ladle soup into serving bowls. Sprinkle with shaved cheese. Serve with the Romano sticks.
