Green Orzo with Rocket Pesto and Whipped Yogurt

Sometimes you just want lunch to taste like a sunny afternoon. This green orzo is exactly that: tender little grains tangled up in a vivid herb sauce, sweet peas and edamame tucked through, finished with cool soya yoghurt and a few sharp pickled onions for contrast. Bright, fresh, properly lovely, the kind of bowl you'll want to eat outside.

Cooked it twice already and love it. It's so simple and tasty. First I thought that there was too much liquid but it all works out perfectly. Simply in love with it!
