Risi E Bisi
  1. In a large skillet, over medium-high heat, sauté the leeks and onions in the olive oil for about 5 mins, until translucent.

  2. Reduce the heat to medium, add the minced garlic, and continue to cook for another two to three minutes.

  3. Stir in the rice. Stir for a couple of minutes until you start to hear it make popping sounds.

  4. Add the frozen peas, stock, and salt, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and allow to simmer gently uncovered for 20 minutes, possibly up to 25 minutes, stirring occasionally until it's a thick, soupy consistency and the rice is just tender. It will continue to thicken a bit as it cools while you serve it up.

  5. Remove from the heat, add the vegan butter and black pepper and give it a really good stir to incorporate. Taste a little bit to check the seasoning and add more salt and pepper if necessary.

  6. Serve with an extra dollop of butter and some parsley and vegan parmesan cheese if desired.
