Instructions

  1. Mist a large saucepan with cooking spray over a medium heat. Add the onion and celery and cook, stirring, for 3-4 minutes or until softened. Add the stock and half the garlic and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and add the orzo. Cook, uncovered, for 10 minutes or until the pasta is tender.

Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick frying pan over a medium heat. Add the meatballs and cook, turning occasionally, for 5-6 minutes or until browned and cooked through. Add the meatballs to the orzo mixture.
  3. Serve the soup topped with the rocket and parmesan.
