Step 1

Peel and finely slice your garlic, dice your tomato and add to a shallow pan (with lid) on a medium heat. Season well with salt and pepper and leave to gentle cook down, stirring occasionally until the tomato has softened (8 minutes or so).

Step 2

Once the tomato has softened, add the tomato paste and orzo to the pan, stirring thoroughly so ensure everything is well coated. Allow to fry briefly for a couple of minutes so the tomato paste cooks out then add your vegetable stock and bring up to the boil.

Step 3

Once the pan is up to the boil, reduce the heat to a medium level and allow the orzo to cook for 12-15 minutes until it is nearly cooked. While the pasta is cooking, grate your courgette on the corse side of a box grater.

Step 4

Once the orzo is nearly cooked, stir in the grated courgette and king prawns. Leave to cook for a further 4-5 minutes. If the pan is looking a little dry, add a little water to the process (remember some liquid will come out from the courgette as they cook as well).

Step 5

Finely chop your chives and, once the prawns are cooked through, stir them through the orzotto. Serve in large pasta bowls and top with the crumbled feta.
