Ingredients
¼ cup butter
1 yellow onion, chopped
1 pinch saffron
12 ounces Carbe Diem orzo
½ cup white wine
3 cups chicken or vegetable stock
1 15-ounce can pumpkin puree
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground pepper
2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
Steps
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, about 8 to 10 minutes. Add saffron and orzo and toast for 2 minutes, stirring often.
Add white wine and stir until absorbed. Add stock and bring to a simmer. Decrease heat to low, cover, and cook until most of the liquid is absorbed and orzo is tender, about 15 minutes.
Stir in pumpkin puree and Parmesan cheese, and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with thyme leaves and serve immediately.
