Cooking Steps
1
- Preheat the oven to 220°C and prepare the stock.
- In an oven dish, combine the mini Roma tomatoes with the balsamic vinegar and half of the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, then roast in the oven for 15 - 20 minutes.
- In the meantime, chop the onion and crush or mince the garlic.
- Finely dice the courgette. Zest and juice the lemon.
2
- Melt the butter in a pot or saucepan over medium-low heat. Fry the onion with half of the garlic and 0.5 tsp lemon zest per person for 2 minutes.
- Add the orzo and the Italian seasoning and fry for 1 minute, stirring regularly.
- Add the stock and allow to cook for 10 - 12 minutes over low heat, covered. Stir regularly and add a splash of water as necessary if the orzo seems too dry.
3
- In the meantime, heat the rest of the olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the courgette with the rest of the garlic for 3 minutes.
- Add 1 tsp lemon juice per person and fry for another 3 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Transfer the courgette to the orzo, then add half of the Gruyère and mix well to combine.
4
- Serve the orzo on plates and top with the mini Roma tomatoes.
- Garnish with the rest of the Gruyère and lemon zest.
- Serve the rest of the lemon juice alongside, so as to allow everyone to add it as preferred.
