Pork Risotto

Pork joint (I roast mine in the oven prior to making this recipe)
1 can chopped tomatoes
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 med. onion, chopped
1 tbsp. parsley, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tbsp. olive oil
2 or 3 cups of hot water
2 cups Rice

Sauté onions and garlic.

Add required amount of pre cooked pork.

Add tomatoes and parsley.

Add seasonings, rice and 2-3 cups of water.

Bring to boil and simmer stirring gently. (You may have to add more water as it cooks so it stays moist and creamy)

Chicken Meatballs 

Chicken breasts/thighs

Heat oil in a pan over high heat and cook the meatballs until cooked through (8-10 minutes)
