- Bring the rice to boil, return the partridge to the pan, and simmer for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the peas to the pan, and simmer for a further 5 minutes until the rice is cooked and the partridge is tender.
- Season well and serve with lemon and parsley and parmesan if you fancy it.
