Method

1 In a large, lidded pan, heat oil and soften courgettes and onions. Then, stir in garlic and rice and cook for 1 min. Pour in stock, stir, cover and simmer for about 10 mins. 2 Remove from heat and stir in prawns and herbs, cover and leave to stand for about 5 mins, so prawns cook in heat of the rice and turn pink. Season with lemon zest and juice, freshly ground black pepper and sea salt.
