Tomato Orzo Puttanesca Recipe | Ottolenghi Test Kitchen (OTK) Shelf Love Cookbook
Ottolenghi Test Kitchen 'OTK' Cookbook
The inspiration for this is the tuna melt, to which I am rather partial, so forgive me if that’s not up your street. This is a great way to use up tins, jars and bits of herbs and cheese that have been sitting around in the cupboard or fridge for too long, but I’ve also added a few fresh ingredients, such as basil and parmesan, to finish, so by all means substitute those for whatever you have in the house.
Prep 15 min
Cook 50 min
Serves 4
60ml olive oil
1x onion (finely chopped) approx 150g
6 garlic cloves (peeled & crushed)
2x fresh red chillies or 1 tsp chilli flakes
3 anchovy fillets (roughly chopped)
2 tbsp capers (chopped)
1½ preserved lemons (seeds discard & chopped) approx 15g
70g pitted kalamata olives (roughly torn in half)
2 x 160g tins good-quality tuna in olive oil, drained and roughly flaked
2 tbsp tomato paste
1 tin chopped tomatoes
250g orzo
Salt & black pepper
1x beef tomatoes (6x slices - 0.5cm thick)
50g parmesan (finely grated)
2 tbsp basil leaves (roughly torn)
Heat the oven to 220C (200C fan)/425F/gas 7. Put three tablespoons of oil into a large, ovenproof saute pan for which you have a lid, and heat on a medium-high flame. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for about eight minutes, or until softened and browned. Add the garlic, chilli and anchovies, cook for a minute more, until fragrant, then stir in the capers, half the lemon, 45g of the olives, tuna, tomato paste, tinned tomatoes, orzo, 450ml water, a teaspoon of salt and a generous grind of pepper. Bring to a simmer, then cover and transfer to the oven for 20 minutes, or until the orzo is cooked through.
Turn up the oven to 230C (210C fan)/450F/gas 8. Lift the lid off the pan, then haphazardly top the mixture with the sliced tomatoes, sprinkle over the cheese and return to the oven, uncovered, for 10-12 minutes, or until bubbling and lightly browned. Remove, leave to rest for about 10 minutes, then top with the remaining olives and preserved lemon, the basil and the remaining tablespoon of oil, and serve straight from the pot.
