Ingredients

Simmer the rice in 500ml (2 cups) stock, covered, for 20 minutes. Turn off the heat and leave covered for 5 minutes.
Heat the remaining stock with the sliced courgette and some seasoning, until tender. Using a slotted spoon, remove the cooked courgette then set aside to keep warm.
Whisk the eggs with the lemon juice, until foamy. Strain then gradually add to the hot stock, whisking continuously until warm and frothy.
Turn the rice and courgette into a large bowl. Add the hot, frothy soup, check seasoning then serve.
