Turkish Home Cooking: Orzo Pilaf

A pilaf made with rice-shaped pasta. It has a chewier texture than rice and a toasty aroma that whets the appetite. The origin of this recipe: I remembered a dish from a dinner I was invited to long ago and made it using the method for bulgur pilaf. I wanted something with more bite than the soft texture of rice.
