Get Prepped
1
  • Roughly chop the mushrooms.

  • Roughly chop the spinach.
Toast the Nuts
2
  • Bash or roughly chop the hazelnuts.

Stir in the Stock
4
  • Add the orzo, muscat, 400ml water (double both for 4p) and a knob of butter to the pot. 
  • Bring to the boil, cover and simmer until the orzo is al dente, 15-20 mins.

TIP: Add a little water if the orzo is too dry or undercooked.
