Melt the butter in a saucepan, add the onion and gently soften. Add the rice and mix in well. Add the white wine and reduce, then add the stock in stages and stir. Simmer for about 18 minutes. Whilst the rice is cooking, gently fry the sliced chorizo and the bacon bits in a little oil. Microwave the frozen spinach for about four minutes on high, or wilt/steam the fresh spinach. Add the meats to the rice, stir in the cheese and spinach and rest the mix for a minute or two. Serve at once, with a sprinkling of more parmesan cheese if desired..
