  1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (180°C fan)/gas mark 6. Finely chop half an onion and mince garlic cloves.
  2. In an oven-safe pan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until translucent, about 3 minutes.
  3. Add diced chorizo and minced garlic to the pan. Fry for another 2 minutes until the chorizo releases its oils.
  4. Stir in risotto rice, stirring to coat the rice in the chorizo oil. Cook for 1 minute until the edges of the rice appear translucent.
  5. Add baby tomatoes, tomato puree, 0.5 teaspoons of mixed herbs, and mix well.
  6. Dissolve chicken stock in 300 ml of hot water. Pour it into the pan and stir to combine all ingredients.
  7. Season with 1 teaspoon of salt and 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper. Cover the pan with a lid or foil and place in the preheated oven.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the risotto rice is tender and has absorbed most of the liquid.
  9. Remove from the oven, uncover, and stir in 20 grams of grated parmesan until melted and creamy.
  10. Serve hot!
