now in case you don't know who we are I'm barry and this is Ben hes the chef hence the outfit

Adverbs of degree

just to explain we are in Jamie Olivers kitchen at the moment. We are taking over and we are making

so something with a slight twist, a Sorted of twist on risotto

Jamie Oliver is pretty hot on his risottos but were going to do one today with a

cheat we are going to use orzo pasta instead of risotto rice so its so much quicker

we are going to flavor ours with pea and ham classic

combos for simple cooking okay so to start with I'm going to do a shallot if you can grab a garlic

sweat it off in some oil and butter meanwhile one of two flavors in the dish

we've got some ham now this is just a gammon joint or piece of ham

we've boiled off in a little bit of water until its cooked through

awesome sandwiches its great to have around for pasta dishes because its already cooked

we just need to dice it up a little bit to go into our rissoto, orzo and

key to risotto season all the way through so season at the start salt and pepper half way through

come here right onions and garlic's sweated off so are ham can go in as well

and then your barely going to believe this but we are nearly there already all we have got to do now is add

no honestly this is how simple this dish is a glass of wine to reduce down

so white wine nice Italian white wine all of our orzo ow you've used this stuff before

its like a pasta but in rice grain very very small easy to

cover that in all the winery buttery goodness

then bit of a cheat a stock cube that's going to go  in as well

yes it behaves a little bit like rice in fact that it leeches lots of starch what gives it this risotto

and unlike a risotto when normally you would have to add stock a little bit at the time

this time you put the whole lot in at once make sure its the right amount and you can get all our

ingredients on our website ... Sortedfood.com

now that's how simple this risotto is in the meantime we can

grate up some Parmesan so grab some Parmesan out of the fridge

yes so much easier than normal risotto you don't have to stand there laboring over it just give it a stir every couple of minutes

I'm attached to your there whats happened

we've got 8 minutes before that's done even you can grate Parmesan in 8 minutes

cheese is ready peas are ready watercress is ready

we can come back to it right at the end to finish it all off

after 7 or 8 minutes look at that a beautiful luxurious kind of risotto consistency and now we can add in

huge handful of what you did before that can all go in there

some creme fresh for extra creaminess like that

and our peas now these are just frozen peas we have let defrost so they are good to go

and there's enough heat in that pasta to warm

those peas through and it stops the cooking it doesn't over cook

makes it a bit more fun doesn't it and then a squeeze of lemon juice

in there as well just to lift the flavours in the final moment and that's it as simple as that

beautiful consistency that relaxes on to the plate there we go and

here's a little bit of watercress nice peppery watercress there

there we go if that isn't a cheat risotto to be proud of

thats what we do on our own channel here in jamie olivers were going to dig straight in so

I can make this every day I reckon.  its so quick there is no reason not to its actually really nice

the lemon everything else it cuts through
