Chef tips

if you don’t like these vegetables or if you want to make the recipe tastier, you can use aubergines, asparagus, beans, artichokes and leeks.
To make our Orzotto creamier, at the end of cooking you can add some ricotta cheese or spreadable cheese. For a vegan version, you can add some velvety tofu.
