Cooking Steps

Get Prepped

1

Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
Quarter the lime.
Halve the pepper and discard the core and seeds. Chop into 2cm chunks.
Roughly chop the parsley (stalks and all).

Time to Fry

2

Place a large pan over medium-high heat.
Once hot, fry the pepper until starting to soften, 3-4 mins.
Drizzle in some oil (if required) then add the cumin, paprika and garlic. Fry until fragrant, 1 min.
Add the tomato paste, prawns and orzo and cook, stirring, 1-2 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw prawns.

Simmer the Orzo

3

Pour 400ml water into the pan along with ½ tsp sugar, ½ tsp salt (double all for 4p) and a knob of butter (if you have any).
Bring to the boil, cover and simmer until the orzo is al dente, 15-20 mins.
Stir every 3-4 mins or so to prevent sticking.
Once cooked, season to taste with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Prawns are cooked when pink on the outside and opaque in the middle.

Finish and Serve

4

Stir half the chopped parsley through the orzo.
Divide your creamy orzo between bowls.
Top with lime wedges for squeezing over.
Finish with a sprinkling of remaining chopped parsley.
