Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Before you begin...
This recipe takes around 5-10 min to prep, so get your casserole dish and all your ingredients ready, then wash your fruit and veg
Note: Make sure your dish is oven-proof and safe to use on the hob. Don't have one? Start cooking in a large, wide-based pan then transfer to an oven-proof dish and cover tightly with foil

Now, let's get started!
Preheat the oven to 200°C/ 180°C (fan)/ gas 6 and boil a kettle
Heat a large, wide-based, hob-safe oven-proof casserole dish with a matching lid with a drizzle of vegetable oil over a high heat
Once hot, add your Fable pulled mushrooms to the dish with your cracked black pepper and cook for 2 min or until lightly browned

Meanwhile, chop your leek[s] in half lengthways, wash thoroughly to remove any grit then top, tail and slice finely
Peel and finely chop (or grate) your garlic

Once lightly browned, add 1 tbsp [1 1/2 tbsp] [2 tbsp] flour with the chopped garlic and give it a good mix up
Add the sliced leek

Add your red wine paste and tomato paste with your vegetable stock mix and 500ml [650ml] [850ml] boiled water
Add your bay leaf[ves] and bring to the boil over a high heat
Once boiling, cover with the lid and put the dish in the oven for 30-35 min or until the sauce has thickened – this is your baked peppery Fable mushroom peposo

Once the mushroom peposo has had 15 min, reboil the kettle
Combine your orzo and saffron in an oven-proof dish with 300ml [450ml] [600ml] boiled water and give it a good mix up
Cover tightly with tin foil and put the dish in the oven for 15-18 min or until the orzo is cooked – this is your cooked orzo
Add your garlic baguette[s] to a baking tray (or two!), then put the tray[s] in the oven for 10-15 min or until golden brown and piping hot throughout

Once the mushroom peposo is ready, set aside, with the lid on, for 3-4 min for the flavours to develop
Once the orzo is cooked, add a knob of butter and give everything a good mix up – this is your saffron butter orzo

Discard the bay leaf[ves]
Serve the baked peppery Fable mushroom peposo over the saffron butter orzo
Serve the garlic baguette to the side
Enjoy!
