Method

  1. In a heavy pan heat the oil and sauté the onions over a low heat for 4-5 mins or until softened but not browned. Add the garlic and cook for a further 1 min.
  2. Stir in the rice, stirring continuously until it is well coated with the oil.
  3. In a separate pan heat up the Bolognese sauce, tomato purée, wine, stock and heat thoroughly.
  4. Add 150ml of the warmed tomato mixture to the rice, stirring constantly until the liquid is absorbed by the rice. Continue to add the rest of the sauce, ladle by ladle, until all the sauce is added and the risotto has a creamy texture. This will take about 15 mins.
  5. Add the seafood and diced pollock and cook for a further 5-6 mins or until cooked through. Season to taste and stir in the tarragon. Serve hot, garnished with fresh flat leaf parsley.
