1. Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large saucepan, add the onion and cook, without colouring, for 5-10 minutes, or until softened.

Season with salt and pepper and add the sugar. Cover and simmer gently, stirring occasionally, for 15-20 minutes, or until the rice is just tender. (If using frozen peas, add them after 10-15 minutes.)
3. Cut each slice of prosciutto in half lengthways. Heat the remaining oil in a large frying pan, add the prosciutto strips and cook over a high heat for 10-15 seconds, or until crisp. Drain on kitchen paper.
4. Stir the parsley and grated Parmesan into the soup.
