Chef's Notes
Treat your garlic with absolute respect; introduce it to the party only when the onions are ready, otherwise, burnt garlic will ruin your masterpiece with bitter regret.
Pro Tip
Always zest your lemon before you squeeze it, unless you enjoy playing a dangerous game of finger-grater roulette with a deflated citrus husk.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
If you crank the heat too high during the simmer, your coconut milk will split into an oily tragedy and your orzo will turn into a scorched, gluey brick.

Our royal accountants calculated that stirring risotto for thirty minutes burns enough calories to justify eating an entire wheel of cheese afterward, which is why we invented this lazy orzotto.
The Culinary Science
Orzo is actually a pasta disguised as rice, meaning it releases starches as it cooks in the liquid, creating its own luxurious, velvety sauce without needing heavy cream.
