Ingredients
Preparation method
Boil the orzo pasta in salted boiling water according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve 50 ml of the pasta cooking water, then drain the orzo.
Wash the zucchini and cut them into thin slices or half-moons. Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the zucchini and finely chopped garlic, then sauté for 5-6 minutes until the zucchini is lightly browned and tender.
Add the cooked orzo pasta to the skillet with the zucchini, along with the grated zest and juice of half a lemon, the grated parmesan, and the reserved pasta water. Mix well for 1 minute until a creamy sauce forms and coats the pasta. Season with sea salt and ground black pepper to taste.
Chef's tip
Chef's tip: Take the burrata out of the fridge 15-20 minutes before serving so that its texture is just as creamy and rich at room temperature.
