For extra crunch you could always add a handful of dry-roasted peanuts just before serving. It makes a tasty but economical lunch or supper dish. Place the eggs in pan of cold water, bring to the boil and simmer for 7 minutes until hard-boiled. Drain, crack the shells immediately, then keep under running cold water until cool. Leave in a bowl until required. Cook the onion and pepper in the oil in a large frying pan for 3 to 4 minutes until they are soft. Add the mushrooms and cracked wheat, stir everything well, then add the chopped tomatoes and the vegetable stock. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 10 minutes until the wheat is nicely puffed up and the stock has almost all been absorbed. Meanwhile, shell the eggs, roughly chop three and cut the remaining one into quarters and set aside. Add the chopped eggs to the wheat mixture and satay sauce and heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Season well with salt and pepper, then turn the risotto into a warmed serving dish and garnish with the remaining egg and some fresh coriander leaves, if using. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
