METHOD

In a dry pan, toast the pine nuts until golden brown, then finely chop and set aside. The onion should be peeled and finely chopped. In a pan, heat 4 tablespoons oil and sauté the onion over medium heat. Add the rice and fry briefly before pouring in half the stock and simmering for about 18 minutes over low heat, stirring frequently and gradually adding the remaining stock during this time. Stir in the lemon zest and juice, as well as the pine nuts, near the end of the cooking time.
