Ooh another interesting recipe embellished with handy hints. Hope you're feeling better Adam, just getting over cooties myself.

[@Adam_Garratt]

Thank you 😊

[@Redsnapper123]

Looks a good dish 😊

[@DS-xl1ro]

Wonderful looking dish. Orzo is a very underrated pasta. I love it. I make a similar dish using chicken, Asiago cheese and peas. Thanks for the great vid!

[@Adam_Garratt]

I love asiago cheese!

[@ashleycleaver4753]

Looks delicious

[@Adam_Garratt]

Thank you Ashley

[@christophervogt7456]

I make a chilled orzo pasta salad with asparagus, cherry or grape tomatoes, parmesan, and a garlic & lemon vinaigrette. A hit in the warmer months.

[@cherbeatTX59]

Now I can go to work happy today! ☺️ Adam always makes my Sundays!!! Have a good week, everyone!! 💕💕

[@Adam_Garratt]

Awww thanks Aunty! Have a good day x

[@maratusa]

Adam is the best part of a Sunday! Xx

[@rickm5271]

Feel better, mate! Thanks for the video, as always! Looks delicious, and the sprouts are looking so cute! Oh, my favorite pasta dish is Alla Amatritiana or Caccio e pepe - simple ingredients, but so delicious!

[@Adam_Garratt]

Thanks pal

[@JohnNathanShopper]

Adam, your cooking is always so accessible, repeatable, and appealing. Now I want to do this “cheat” risotto technique with pork belly and chili oil instead of chorizo, and I can’t wait to see if I’m right about taking this in the direction of fusion.

[@Adam_Garratt]

Thanks mate. And yep, pork belly would be great. I'd either use pre cooked leftover pork or slice uncooked belly nice and thinly for this

[@JohnNathanShopper]

Yay, it’s Adam!

[@marilynsmith8054]

Got some orzo wondering how to use it up.👍🤗

[@Adam_Garratt]

Now you know 😉

[@jamietaylor3775]

Looks delicious 😋

[@Adam_Garratt]

Thank you

[@lesreid6247]

Adam, what a lovely recipe, I’m gonna try this one, thanks 👍

[@Adam_Garratt]

Hope you enjoy Les

[@janelloyd4332]

That looked amazing...thanks for sharing and I hope by now you are feeling much better

[@jimbojet8728]

A great idea Adam. Thanks.

[@Adam_Garratt]

Any time!

[@faydove]

Nice one Adam.

[@Adam_Garratt]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@pennelopewade8404]

Thanks

[@Adam_Garratt]

No problem

[@lisaray9404]

Hey Adam!! This looks like it is a great comfort food dinner! You always make amazing dishes! Than you! What are my favorite pasta dishes?? I love macaroni and cheese, as long as it's not from a box. And my latest favorite is spaghetti all'assassina, a very savory, spicy and intense pasta dish - very worth making and trying. Thank you again! Take care, be safe and happy cooking! 😊💖🙏🏻

[@Adam_Garratt]

Omg I love mac and cheese so much!

[@christianboutell7112]

Looks absolutely delicious, chorizo 👍💯💥✨️cheers Adam, big up.

[@Adam_Garratt]

Cheers mate

[@steveday4797]

Great video as usual Adam. Wishing you better soon

[@Adam_Garratt]

Thanks mate

[@davidholiday4494]

never thought of using orzo like that...wonderful idea

[@mr.piechipsandbakedbeans7967]

Nice one Adam! This is a great idea for those who love the creamy texture of risotto but don't have the time to make it the traditional way. Using orzo pasta as a substitute for risotto rice is a clever trick that maintains that satisfying creaminess without the long cooking process. I'm intrigued by your approach and will definitely try making it one day. Thanks for sharing this time-saving tip!

[@royalhideaway32]

Really good idea. Will try soon. Regards from german Reinhard who is for two weeks on Mallorca island, enjoying spanish food

[@Adam_Garratt]

I'm not envious one bit! Haha enjoy mate

[@suzannewby8843]

Aww my sympathys, hope you feel better real soon, hayfever? Food looks amazing as usual x

[@Adam_Garratt]

Aye probably because my eyes are sore and red

[@scotty6346]

I'm giving that a good Ad's, Nice one 👍

[@Adam_Garratt]

Cheers fella

[@chriscooks9850]

I'm playing the worlds smallest violin for you Adam lol. Great dish!! Looks brill

[@Adam_Garratt]

🤣🤣 thanks

[@mikeplatts2603]

Nice recipe Adam, I have been using Orzo for years its a cracking ingredient.

[@AudreySmallcombe]

Looks bloody lovely! Cheers, Ad.x

[@Ratchies]

Oh another banging recipe, thanks Adam. I've never even heard of orzo but do like making Risotto. This looks a lot less work and much less stirring, I'll give it a go.

[@somersetskylark173]

Lovely recipe Adam 😍hope you feel better soon 🌻

[@marianmcgee1421]

Looks lovly and so easy to make ❤👍🇨🇮

[@wajt8966]

Express risotto. Now I’ve got to get some orzo…. Looks delish

[@Adam_Garratt]

Thank you

[@jimpennin9588]

As always, looks great Adam. I missed you last week 👋

[@sylviapage8572]

That looks delicious. Jamie Oliver used Orzo in one of his recipes and he said for a cheaper alternative take cheap spaghetti and he pressed the bag over the edge of his work top working along the pasta and it broke into tiny pieces. Worked fine. 😋

[@stephendocherty6629]

Thank God you're back wee man 💪 yes there's loads of bugs about just now... I've been poorly and a few of my men

[@Adam_Garratt]

Get well soon pal

[@lizjones4994]

Big hugs 💗

[@Adam_Garratt]

🤗

[@helenwright1071]

Thanks so much, Adam. This looks amazing, just found your channel. What could I use instead of chorizo, I don’t eat pork.

[@Adam_Garratt]

You could use some grilled chicken, or you could add some seafood like prawns in at the end instead

[@Slycockney]

The late great Keith Floyd always had a glass or three while cooking, so that's what we should all do. Great looking meal, cheers Adam.

[@Adam_Garratt]

Haha good old Keith!

[@svenneven]

You had me at chorizo 🤤 Love this recipe, thank you Adam! 👍

[@itsrainingyarn]

Wish I was eating with you lol looks delicious.

[@helentew6393]

That looks so yummy yum yum, ran out of food today, well last night, get some money tuesday, why do😊 i watch cooing when im hungry lol might shop for the ingredients for that tomorrow, but no wine, Extra stock i think. Thank you adam , yet another fablus recipe😊 Bless your hear, hope you feel better very soon, plenty of garlic good for colds, I love loads of garlic.

[@Adam_Garratt]

Aww Helen I know what you mean. And yep extra stock will be fine

[@Mariak82]

Great video. Hope your feeling better. Do you have a link to your pan?

[@Adam_Garratt]

They are available from john Lewis, I think they are £70 now though

[@michaelbratton3319]

Your drawer is nearly empty mate coz you can open it effortlessly without it jamming up with a ladle or fish slice,food looked banging again?

[@Adam_Garratt]

Sometimes my soup ladle catches underneath and it sends me into a fit of rage every time 🤣

[@kellymae2421]

That's what I thought too... lots of room :)

[@cardiffst]

You’ve finally given me to push I need to buy some orzo! I’ve always treated it as a pasta salad ingredient for Guardian readers.

[@Adam_Garratt]

It's great stuff!

[@isaiah513623]

We call that pasta risoni and very popular with the Greeks. I never ever thought of using risoni instead of Arborio rice. I have always had a problem cleaning leeks so that is a very good and easy way of dealing with the dirt. That is a very good easy recipe - sorry you are not in the pink

[@Adam_Garratt]

Try carnaroli rice next time instead of arborio. It makes a way better risotto

[@cawstongreenway]

It's a bu99er is this cold that's doing the rounds. 4 weeks and still snotty!! Interesting dish. I find risotto and couscous a bit stodgy for me personally, but I like your style 😅

[@Adam_Garratt]

There's a fine line between being an overcooked sloppy mess and it being just right. You gotta taste taste taste as you go. Get well soon!

[@chantellepazzard9937]

Great video bro, will definitely be trying this! Also, you should have definitely had a pop up of Mike Tyson everytime you said "Choritho" 😅 I learned something new today but couldn't help but laugh everytime you said it. 🤣 I've been saying it wrong my entire life!

[@Adam_Garratt]

Thanks sis 😂

[@brendarigdonsbrensden.8350]

Not cheating Adam, using your noggin sunshine.👍🏼❤️

[@wend2239]

A question Adam....instead of leek could spring onion be substituted?

[@Adam_Garratt]

Yep that would work

[@kellymae2421]

Don’t most people’s cutlery drawers look like this? There’s still room in there 😇

[@Adam_Garratt]

It's somewhat organised I guess 🤣

[@deathbycocktail]

I love orzo and this is a great recipe to introduce people to it. You're going to need to feature your neighbours trying your food eventually 😁

[@Adam_Garratt]

They are from Bermuda and I'd love to get them to try some British classics. Earl who sadly passed away last November tried a few things. I gave him some proper scotch once and It put him on his arse 🤣

[@annteather2826]

I get so cross when I see what supermarkets sell what they call leeks! They sell half the plant, probably because so many people don't what to do with a leek! How much tasty leek is wasted? 😡

[@davidpearson243]

Orzo is definitely available in ASDA its reasonably cheap (own brand)

[@Adam_Garratt]

Yep!

[@Chris3141592]

Glorious!!!! Looks like it's about 60 calories ish. Probably.

[@Adam_Garratt]

Add a few digits and you're close 🤣

[@jamesgoacher1606]

I have eaten Risotto but I thought I had cooked it wrongly cos the rice was sloppy. I have since learned that Risotto rice IS sloppy and I don't like sloppy rice so I don't eat it. HOWEVER this looks NOT sloppy and even if it was a bit wet it is Pasta and I have some Orzo so for me this is a 'must try'. AND I can make a single portion easily. Thank you.

[@Adam_Garratt]

It's quite a fine line between too stodgy and soup. A proper risotto has to be just right. I find also that some restaurants give you way too much of it. Its filling and so you don't want too much

[@jonathangarcia9617]

Nice video of the day.❤🎉. 1:57 .❤🎉. 2:00 .❤🎉. 2:03 .❤🎉. 2:11 .❤🎉. 2:14 .❤🎉. 2:22 .

[@Redsnapper123]

Do you drink all day on Saturday?

[@Adam_Garratt]

No 🤣

[@anniegetyrgun8741]

You could so vary that bad boy! Swap chorizo for mushrooms (great if veggie). Swap leeks for onions. Add spinach or frozen peas near the end…

[@Adam_Garratt]

Absolutely

[@pattiehartmann1754]

I didn't know yum. Oh yeah answer to door🤣🤣🤣

[@Adam_Garratt]

Was hella loud wasn't it! 🤣

[@williamsimpson73]

was that a debt collector at your door ???

[@Adam_Garratt]

My neighbour 🤣

[@M45KY]

Double parked with beer and vino ... fat mood. =]

[@paragon1361]

Note to all the vegetarians: Parmigiano reggiano and Grana pardano are not vegetarian.

[@JohnNathanShopper]

💜🤧

[@chriscringle7740]

What no msg lol

[@Adam_Garratt]

I've actually run out! 🤣

[@wend2239]

Feeling ya Adam....have had to take 3 days off work for the very symptoms you are mentioning....I hope yours dosn't take a turn for the worse...plenty of lemon tea; vicks and throat lozenges do the trick...oh and bed rest for sure sleep sleep & more sleep😴

[@MrLoopy52]

Sounds like you’ve got hay fever, it’s that time of year. Get some antihistamines down your neck, son.

[@Adam_Garratt]

Aye probably

[@HotdogSosage]

Did anyone else think it was pizza in the thumbnail?

[@Adam_Garratt]

I can't unsee it now 🤣

[@jeansmith3367]

Nice to see you, and looks like a nice dish but I think Parmesan is horrible - terrible taste, spoils food in my opinion! Who was that at the door???

[@Adam_Garratt]

My neighbour Stephanie. She's lovely but my God she knocks loud 🤣

[@joancrossland3184]

Virus and we all had it and get well soon ❤

[@Adam_Garratt]

Ah could be. I'll survive 😅
