My husband made this and it was wonderful. He needed to use more asparagus in the risotto and not so much for garnish.

my new go to is risotto in the pressure cooker. You should try it. it’s a game changer. You probably wouldn’t even have to precook asparagus except to puree some. I pre fry the onions and it takes a while to figure out the rice to liquid ratio.. the great thing is, while it’s sitting it thickens and if you want it runner, it’s easy to add more hot broth.

[…] Asparagus Risotto is one of my favourite spring meals but risotto takes a bit of time and effort to make so when I came across the idea of a creamy orzo with asparagus and peas, on Skinny Taste, I just had to try it. Risotto is a super creamy rice dish where you cook the rice while constantly stirring for almost an hour, where the stirring helps make the rice nice and creamy, and this dish uses orzo pasta which cooks in less than 10 minutes! The base of this meal is orzo with leeks, green onion, and garlic, that’s cooked in broth before adding butter and parmesan to make it creamy along with a splash of lemon juice for brightness! The orzo is topped with a mixture of asparagus, peas, green onions and fresh herbs (such as mint, or basil, or dill, or parsley or oregano). I like to serve the veggies on top but you could easily cook them in the pan with the orzo and mix everything together. This creamy orzo with asparagus and peas only takes about 30 minutes to make and it’s a perfect meal option to enjoy some fresh spring produce! […]
