One-pot tomato orzo is exactly the sort of dinner that rescues a busy evening. It cooks in one pan, tastes deeply tomatoey and savoury, and lands on the table with almost no fuss and very little washing up.

Serves: 4 people

Ingredients

olive oil – 2 tbsp
red onion – 1, chopped
garlic – 2 cloves, chopped
orzo – 300 g
chopped tomatoes – 400 g
vegetable stock – 700 ml
cherry tomatoes – 200 g
parmesan – 50 g, grated
mozzarella – 125 g, torn
fresh parsley – 2 tbsp, chopped
salt – to taste
black pepper – to taste

Method

STEP 1
Heat the oil and fry the onion until softened, then stir in the garlic.
STEP 2
Add the orzo, tinned tomatoes and stock, then bring everything to a gentle simmer.
STEP 3
Stir regularly so the pasta cooks evenly and becomes creamy as it absorbs the liquid.
STEP 4
Add the cherry tomatoes near the end so they soften without losing all their shape.
STEP 5
Finish with parmesan, mozzarella and parsley, season well and serve while the cheese is melting.
