We've taken a few of our favourite things – chorizo, garlic prawns and lightly charred cherry tomatoes – and turned them into a dish distantly related to paella. It's baked in the oven to give you time to pour a wine, put your feet up, and set the mood for a meal to remember.
We’ve replaced the arborio rice in this recipe with risoni due to local ingredient availability. It’ll be just as delicious, just follow your recipe card!

• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • Halve snacking tomatoes. • Place tomatoes on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, then roast until fragrant and lightly charred, 20-25 minutes.

• Half-fill a large saucepan with water, add a generous pinch of salt, then bring to the boil over high heat. • Cook risoni in boling water until 'al dente', 7-8 mintues. • Drain risoni.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook onion and chorizo, stirring, until golden, 5 minutes. • Add half the garlic and Nan's special seasoning, cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. • Remove pan from heat. Return risoni to pan. • Stir in Parmesan cheese, baby spinach, lemon zest, a generous squeeze of lemon juice and roasted tomatoes. Season to taste. Transfer to serving plates and cover to keep warm.
• Wipe out frying pan, then return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook tail-on prawns, tossing, until pink and starting to curl up, 3-4 minutes. Add a pinch of chilli flakes (if using) and remaining garlic and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. • Remove pan from heat. Add a squeeze of lemon juice. Season, then toss prawns to coat.
• Finely chop parsley. • Divide chorizo risoni between bowls. Top with garlic prawns. • Sprinkle with parsley. Serve with any remaining lemon wedges. Enjoy!
