Steps to make Prawn, tomato and feta orzo:

- For this, you need a pan with a lid. On a medium heat add 50ml of oil and add the orzo. Season with salt and pepper. Stir occasionally and wait for the orzo to start to brown this will take 5-6 minutes. When ready (see photo) remove from heat and transfer orzo to a bowl.

- After 15 mins remove the lid and cook uncovered for a further 3 mins. I added some frozen peas at this point. Finally add the prawns and cook until they are pink - normally 2 to 3 minutes
- Nearly there…. simply shred some basil and add some of the feta you prepared earlier. Voila!
While the water heats and the orzo cooks, start preparing the rest of the meal. Heat water in large sauce pot to boil and add pasta, cook to al dente.
