Heat oil and a little butter. Briefly fry the onions and ham, then add the rice. Toast the rice while stirring until translucent. Then add the peas and gradually add the stock. Only add more stock once the stock has been absorbed. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, then taste. Season to taste, stir in the butter and Parmesan cheese, and serve immediately, sprinkled with parsley.
