This orzo with mushrooms and miso<\/strong> is my new favourite one-pot recipe<\/strong>. It\u2019s packed with umami-rich, savoury flavour, and it\u2019s ready in about 30 minutes, making it the perfect mid-week side dish or main meal. The best part about making this miso pasta recipe is the flexibility to adapt it to make it everything everything you crave!<\/p>\n

This one-pot orzo with mushrooms recipe is a delicious combination of tasty rice-shaped pasta, a mix of perfectly seared mushrooms, and a simple miso sauce made with shallots, garlic, white wine (for flavour!), lemon juice, broth and a splash of soy sauce. Simple favours that this dish comes together quickly making it perfect choice for a weeknight dinner.<\/p>\n

\"Recipe<\/p>\n

Key ingredients for this orzo recipe<\/h2>\n

To make this miso mushroom pasta, you\u2019ll need the following ingredients:<\/p>\n

Orzo pasta:<\/strong> Also called risoni (in Italy) or kritharaki (in Greece) is the perfect choice for this recipe as it\u2019s rice-like shape almost makes you think you are enjoying a plate of rice or even risotto, but has that delicious pasta flavour.<\/p>\n

Mushrooms:<\/strong> A mix of mushrooms adds flavour and texture. I like to use cremini, king trumpet, and shiitake. Use your favourite mix or simply stick with regular brown cremini mushrooms.<\/p>\n

Aromatics:<\/strong> Garlic and shallots add a delicious aromatic flavour that compliments the mushrooms. Choose shallots over yellow onions, since they have a milder flavour. Fresh green onions are also added at the end for a burst of fresh flavour.<\/p>\n

Miso paste:<\/strong>\u00a0For this recipe, I recommend using white miso paste, called shiro miso<\/a>. It has a subtle sweet flavour that adds umami richness to the flavour of this dish. Other types of miso could taste too overpowering.<\/p>\n

White wine and lemon juice:<\/strong>\u00a0White wine boosts the flavour of this dish. Together with a little lemon juice, we have a perfectly balanced mix of acidity. If needed, the wine can be skipped and a little extra broth added.<\/p>\n

Broth:<\/strong> A good quality organic or homemade broth is the way to go here. I prefer to use chicken broth as it adds a richer flavour. I like to use my homemade chicken broth recipe, bone broth from BROX (unpaid mention), or an organic bouillon cube.<\/p>\n

How to adapt this one-pot orzo with mushrooms recipe<\/h2>\n

The one-pot miso pasta tastes delicious as is, but here are a few things you can change to switch up the flavour of this dish. Here are a few ideas:<\/p>\n

Vegetables:<\/strong> If you aren\u2019t a fan of mushrooms, then trade them out for roasted cubes of butternut squash<\/strong>. Or try reducing the mushrooms and adding a handful of spinach<\/strong> near the end of the cooking time.<\/p>\n

Sauce:<\/strong> If you\u2019re a fan of creamy sauces, you could also easily transform this sauce into something delicately creamy but adding some heavy cream<\/strong> or even a vegan cream equivalent<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Make it vegan:<\/strong> Simply skip the wine or choose a vegan friendly one and be sure to use vegetable broth. It\u2019s that easy!<\/p>\n
