Cooking Steps
1
- Halve the cherry tomatoes.
- Pick half a stalk of sage leaves (per 2P).
- Halve and peel the onion. Cut each half into three wedges and separate the layers.
- Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
2
- Place a large pot over medium-high heat with 1 tbsp butter (per 2P) and a drizzle of oil.
- When hot, fry the garlic, onion, chorizo and sage leaves until chorizo is starting to brown, 3-4 mins.
- Add the paprika and cherry tomatoes and cook for 1 min more.
3
- Pop the orzo, creme fraiche, stock, 400ml water (per 2P), ¼ tsp sugar (per 2P) and ½ tsp salt (per 2P) into the pot.
- Bring to the boil, cover and simmer until the orzo is tender, 15-20 mins.
- Stir every 3-4 mins to prevent sticking.
- Once cooked, remove the pot from the heat.
- Drain the mozzarella and roughly tear. Stir half through the orzo.
TIP: Add another splash of water if you feel the dish is too dry.
4
- Taste and season with salt and pepper if required.
- Divide your creamy chorizo orzo between bowls or deep plates.
- Top with remaining mozzarella.
