Steps

Heat broth. Bring chicken broth to a simmer in a pot on medium heat. Once simmering, remove from heat and keep warm.

Prep risotto ingredients & start risotto. Return reserved pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Add onion and garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes, until soft. Add rice, 1/2 tsp salt and wine/ water and cook for about 1 minute, until wine/water has evaporated.
-
Add chicken broth 1/2 cup at a time, ensuring liquid has absorbed before adding more. Cook for about 15 minutes, until rice is tender. Add broccoli and peas for final 3 minutes of cook time. Add 1/4 cup of water if risotto is a little dry.

Finish risotto. When rice has cooked, remove from heat and stir through first measure of goats cheese, butter and lemon juice. Season to taste.
