Ingredients
Serves 4 Total Time 50 mins
- 650g Ocado Baby Plum Tomatoes
- 1 block feta
- 3 tsp black garlic paste
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1/2 tsp chilli flakes
- 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 400g orzo
- Small handful of basil leaves
- Small handful of pine nuts
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
- Olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C. Drop your cherry tomatoes into a large baking tray so they’re all lying flat, then pop your block of feta on top. In a bowl, combine 3 tbsp olive oil, black garlic paste, oregano, chilli flakes, red wine vinegar, a pinch of salt and a few cracks of black pepper.
- Pour your olive oil sauce over the feta and tomatoes and bake in the oven for 30 mins. Once the time is up, turn up the heat to 200°C to char the tomatoes for 15 mins. Then cook your orzo for 6 mins in boiling water.
- Mash up the tomatoes and feta with a fork to form a creamy sauce. Pour on your cooked orzo and mix well. Add some pasta water to loosen the sauce if needed – this usually depends on how juicy your tomatoes were.
- Tear your basil leaves and sprinkle on your pine nuts et voila; dinner is served.
