3 Reduce heat and cook for 25-30 minutes on a low simmer, stirring occasionally and topping up with remaining stock if needed.
4 Add broccoli and spinach and stir through. Cook for another 5-10 minutes, until barley is tender.
5 Remove from the heat and stir in the cheese. Season with black pepper.

I liked the flavours of this risotto but not the texture of the pearl barley. It took much longer to cook the pearl barley than it stated in the recipe. I would make it again but using Arborio rice instead of the pearl barley.
