Method

Step 1

Prepare a vegetable stock and keep it hot.

Step 2

Cut the pumpkin into small pieces and slice the shallots. In a frying pan, heat up oil, and add the shallots with a pinch of salt. When beginning to soften, add the pumpkin and fry for 2 minutes.

Step 3

After 2 minutes, add 1-2 ladles stock to the pumpkin and let it cook for around 10 minutes.

Step 4

When it feels soft, roughly mash with a fork.

Step 5

Add the Barilla Orzo pasta and start to cook it again: add a ladle of broth, stir, and add the next ladle only when the previous one has been absorbed.

Step 6

Add salt, pepper and nutmeg. When cooked, stir in the cheese and serve hot.
