Ingredients
- Ingredients
- 500 grams Cherry tomatoes (on the vine)
- 3 Tbsps olive oil
- salt
- freshly ground peppers
- 1 ⅕ liters Vegetable broth
- 2 small onions
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 Tbsp butter
- 400 grams Orzo
- 125 grams pecorino romano
- 4 Tbsps Crème fraiche
- ½ tsp dried thyme
- ½ tsp dried oregano
- fresh oregano (for garnish)
Preparation steps
Preheat oven to 200°C (approximately 400°F). Rinse and drain tomatoes. Place tomatoes in a baking dish and drizzle with oil. Season with salt and pepper. Bake 15-20 minutes.
Bring broth to a boil, then reduce heat and keep warm. Peel and finely chop onions and garlic. Melt butter in a pan. Add onions and garlic and sauté briefly. Add orzo and a little broth. Simmer, stirring, until broth is almost entirely absorbed. Add broth by cupfuls, stirring, until all broth is absorbed and risotto is creamy, but still al dente.
Finely grate Pecorino cheese. Remove risotto from the heat and stir in Pecorino, crème fraîche, thyme, and oregano. Season to taste and divide risotto among bowls. Top with tomatoes, drizzle with tomato oil and garnish with fresh oregano.
