Cooking Steps
1
- Prepare the stock.
- Chop the onion and crush or mince the garlic.
Did you know... onion is a good source of vitamin C, which aids with iron absorption.
2
- Melt half of the butter in a pot or saucepan and fry the onion with the garlic for 2 minutes over medium-low heat.
- Add the orzo and fry for 1 more minute, then pour in the stock and cover with the lid.
- Boil for 10 - 12 minutes, stirring regularly. Add a splash of water if the orzo seems too dry.
3
- Melt the rest of the butter in a frying pan over medium-high heat and fry the mushrooms for 5 - 6 minutes.
- Meanwhile, tear the basil leaves into small pieces.
- Transfer the mushrooms to the orzo, along with half of the herbed cheese cubes.
- Mix well and allow the cheese to melt, then season to taste with salt and pepper.
4
- Serve the orzo on plates.
- Garnish with the basil and the rest of the cheese.
