Cooking steps

Cook the Orzo
1
  • Boil a large pot of salted water for the orzo.
  • When boiling, add the orzo to the water and bring back to the boil.
  • Cook until softened, 10-12 mins. Add the peas for the final 1-2 mins.
  • Once cooked, drain in a sieve and pop back in the pot.
  • Drizzle with oil and stir through to prevent sticking.

TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.
