This is easy and adaptable. (the measurements are for 2 people)

75 gms risotto  or long grain rice
1 chopped onion
1 or 2  chopped garlic cloves

juice and zest 1 lemon
60 gms butter
1 tblspn olive oil (can be another oil if you prefer)
450 mls chicken or vegetable stock
50 gms of home grown rocket (or buy a small bag)

Heat 25 gms of the butter and the olive oil in a frying-pan add the onion, lemon zest and garlic and cook gently until soft.

Add a little rice and stir to coat everything together.  After a couple of minutes add 75 mls of the stock and boil for another 2 minutes, stirring constantly.  Then add the stock a little at a time, and continue to add as the rice absorbs the liquid, continue to do this until all the stock has been used (for some of the time, I usually cover the pan with its lid) up and rice is soft with just a little crunch to it.

Finally add the remaining butter, lemon juice and rocket and season according to taste.

If you want to you can adapt risotto and use anything else you have to hand, ie: a few bits of cooked left-over chicken, a wrinkled pepper, leek, etc.
