Leek Orzotto

Next up in Rukmini Iyer’s Green Roasting Tin: Quick Cook Leek Orzotto with Asparagus, Hazelnuts & Rocket. 

The 3 supermarkets I went to didn’t stock hazelnuts, so I used jalapeno peanuts instead. The leeks also came in a pack of 3, so I bunged in an extra to bulk it up. Asparagus spears came in 500g, not 400, so all that went in. This one should have taken 30 mins. Took me an hour and 15. 

The orzo was the standout ingredient, and I guess it was the stock that brought it to life. The veg, as always, I tolerated. 4.5kg to lose at the time of writing (7/3/25).
