Before you start, take out all the ingredients for this recipe (see picture above) and rinse any raw grains, herbs or vegetables.

1. Take out a frying pan and a saucepan. Thinly slice or peel the courgette into ribbons lengthways. Pick and finely chop the mint leaves. 
   
   
2. Empty the risotto into your saucepan, place over a medium heat and warm through until piping hot, around 5-8 minutes. Add a splash of water as you cook if it reduces too much or starts to stick. Stir through half the mint, a squeeze of lemon and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil (optional) during the final minute of cooking. Season well with salt and pepper.
   
   
3. Place your frying pan over a medium heat, then add the hazelnuts and dry fry (without oil) until golden, around 2-3 minutes. Remove, set aside and lightly crush or chop. When the risotto is almost ready, add a drizzle of oil to your frying pan and fry the courgette ribbons until lightly charred. Be careful not to overcook them, you want them to retain some bite to add texture to the dish. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
   
   
4. Divide the risotto between serving bowls, then top with the charred courgettes, a scattering of toasted hazelnuts, the remaining mint and another squeeze of fresh lemon. Season to taste with salt and pepper and enjoy!

METHOD

Before you start, take out all the ingredients for this recipe (see picture above) and rinse any raw grains, herbs or vegetables.

1. NB: this is one of very few Planthood recipes that takes a little longer than 15 minutes to cook, but the final result is worth it! If you are really short on time you can fry the aubergine, but roasting results in a better flavour and texture.
   
   
2. Preheat your oven to 200°C / 180°C fan, boil your kettle, then take out a roasting tray and a saucepan.
   
   
3. Peel the half of the skin off the aubergine lengthways, so you are left with a zebra pattern. Place inside your roasting tray, drizzle with olive oil, season well with salt and pepper and roast for 20 minutes or until starting to soften. Drain off any excess moisture released by the aubergines, then make a lengthwise incision into them, as if opening a baguette, leaving 2 cm at either end and being careful not pierce through the bottom of the aubergines. Stuff the aubergines with a little tomato sauce, place them back into your roasting tray stuffed side up, then pour the rest of tomato mixture to the bottom of the dish. Roast for a further 15 minutes. 
   
   
4. Pour boiling water from your kettle into a saucepan, place over a medium heat and add the quinoa. Cook until tender, but al dente around 8-10 minutes. Meanwhile finely chop half of the parsley. Once the quinoa is cooked, drain, place it into a small bowl, stir through the chopped parsley, a squeeze of lemon, a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil (optional) and season to taste with salt and pepper. This is your quinoa tabbouleh.
   
   
5. Divide the stuffed aubergines between serving plates, scatter over the remaining parsley and drizzle with almond tarator. Serve alongside the quinoa tabbouleh and enjoy!
