French peas with chorizo

Take advantage of the stiffer or wilting leaves of lettuce to make these French-style peas with bacon. A tasty, cosy and waste-free dish.

Ingredients

Preparation Method

  1. Brown the bacon in a pan with olive oil. Add the chopped onion and, when translucent, add the sliced chorizo, the lettuce leaves, well-washed and cut into wide strips, and the frozen peas. Mix well, cover, and leave to sweat over moderate heat for 10 minutes.
  2. Season with a teaspoon of salt and freshly ground pepper. Add the dried tomatoes cut into strips and a mint stem, drizzle with the white wine, and cook over low heat for a further 20 minutes.
  3. Sprinkle with the sugar and simmer gently for another 10 minutes.
  4. In another pan, bring the water to a boil. When it boils, season with the remaining salt and add the rice. Stir, cover, and cook for about 12 minutes.
  5. When serving, remove the mint stem and sprinkle with fresh mint leaves. Serve with rice.
