Updated: Oct 25, 2023


Have you tried Orzo?

I'm currently into it !


What is Orzo?

Orzo is also known as risoni.

It is a form of short-cut pasta, shaped like a large grain of rice.

Orzo is traditionally made from flour, but it can also be made of whole grain. It is often made with semolina, a type of flour made from durum wheat.

I buy my semolina orzo at a Turkish supermarket in Moabit.



1cup roasted Orzo(rice shaped pasta) 2cups vegan broth 250g cherry tomatoes Half a bell pepper A block of smoked tofu(175g) 1tsp olive oil 1tbsp Harissa paste 1tbsp tomato paste 1tbsp brewer's yeast Black pepper 2 cups of leafy greens of your choice



STEP 1

Warm some oil on a frying pan and roast orzo.(keep it aside)


STEP2

Pan-fry S shredded smoked tofu in the same pan after removing orzo.

And keep it aside with the roasted orzo.


STEP3

Start warming harissa and tomato paste in the frying pan.

Add fresh veggies and stir fry them for a while.


STEP4

Add smoked tofu and roasted orzo back in the pan with 2 cups of broth.

Cook it over a medium heat for 11mins.

(Place a lid and let it steam for one more minute)



STEP5

Sprinkle some brewer’s yeast ,pepper and fresh leafy greens at the end.


Do you want to make it creamy and cheesy?
