ORZO SALAD WITH CORN

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups Orzo
  • 1 litre of Vegetable Broth/Chicken Broth
  • 1 large Onion chopped
  • 2 cups Corn
  • 1/4 cup of Dry White Wine
  • 4 tablespoons of Olive Oil
  • Red Pepper Flakes pinch
  • Salt

Instructions
 

  • Chop or dice Onion…(I prefer bigger pieces of Onion)
  • Orzo or any small pasta of your choice.
  • In a large pot add in the olive oil and onion, sauté.
  • In the meantime start preparing the Vegetable Broth so it is ready to use. If you don’t have Veggies to make your own, store bought is just as good or if you wish you can use Chicken Broth instead 🙂
  • Once the onion is ready add in the Orzo and stir continuously,
  • Add in the wine and the rest of the ingredients, except for the corn. Now, if you want to eat this hot and not as a salad add a bit more then just a pinch of Red Peppers Flakes. ( If you are not into Red Peppers Flakes then you can omit this ingredient completely)
  • Boil the Vegetable Broth along with the Orzo on low heat for 1/2 hour, this should be enough time for the Orzo to soften up, if not then boil for a bit more until Orzo is soft. Add in the corn and boil for another 15 minutes. Drain excess Vegetable Broth 🙂
  • Top with Parmesan Cheese and fresh Scallions and serve hot or cold
