1 large onion

3. Heat the oil in a second large saucepan, add and fry the onion until golden. Fry the rice with the onions for 5 minutes, stirring continuously, then add the water and a generous pinch of salt, cover the pan and cook the rice for 20-25 minutes over a low heat.

4. Drain the rice and mix it with the mushrooms and their cooking liquid. Serve sprinkled with the grated Gruyere.

Serve with: fresh lettuce salad and tomato wedges, or sauteed lightly seasoned courgette slices.
