Simple orzo recipe, prepared like risotto. Original recipe by Pam Anderson, published in the Washington Post, June 7, 2000. Ingredients:

1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled |
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, bring 1 quart of water to a boil. 2. Add the salt and orzo and cook until the orzo is tender and has absorbed almost all of the cooking liquid, 8 to 9 minutes. 3. Stir in the oil, Parmesan cheese, tomatoes, olives and feta cheese. 4. Serve immediately. |
