Servings 2
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 160 g orzo pasta
  • 1 yellow onion finely chopped
  • 150 g frozen edamame defrosted
  • 200 g asparagus
  • 180 g frozen pre-cooked prawns,
  • 500-600 ml hot water
  • salt/ pepper/oil
  • 1/2 lemon juice and zest

Instructions
 

  • In a pan add a bit of oil and cook the onion.
  • Then add the orzo, salt, pepper and 1/2 of the hot water.
  • Let it simmer.
  • Mix regularly so the orzo doesn’t stick to the pan. When the water evaporates add the rest of the water.
  • When the the pasta is almost cooked add the asparagus and cook for 2 minutes with the lid on (I like my asparagus very crunchy, they don’t need much cooking)
  • Add the cooked prawns and edamame beans and mix, it’s ready when all the components are nice and hot.
  • At the very end, add lemon zest, juice l, more pepper if you like and oil/butter.
