Creamy Orzo with Tomato Basil Sauce and Burrata

Ingredients:
• 2 shallots, finely chopped
• 1 pack of orzo (400 g / ~14 oz)
• 4-6 tbsp tomato basil sauce (store-bought or homemade)
• Water (enough to cover the pasta by about 1 cm)
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• Oregano, salt, and pepper to taste
• Burrata (1 ball per serving)
• Fresh tomatoes, diced
• Fresh basil leaves for garnish
• Olive oil

Instructions:
1. Sauté the shallots:
Heat a small amount of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the finely chopped shallots and sauté until translucent.
2. Cook the orzo:
Add the orzo to the skillet, stir well, and pour in enough water to cover the pasta by about 1 cm. Add a pinch of salt and the tomato basil sauce. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat.
3. Stir constantly:
Cook the orzo, stirring frequently, until the mixture becomes creamy, similar to risotto. Add more water as needed during cooking.
4. Season and finish:
Stir in grated Parmesan cheese, oregano, salt, and pepper to taste.
5. Plate and serve:
Divide the orzo into serving plates, top with a ball of burrata, diced fresh tomatoes, and garnish with fresh basil leaves.
