  1. 1

    Cook the Orzo

    Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the orzo pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Cheese Sauce

    In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly until it forms a roux. Gradually whisk in the milk, stirring continuously until the mixture thickens.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

    Remove the saucepan from heat and add the cheddar cheese and parmesan cheese, stirring until melted and smooth. Season with salt and black pepper.

  4. 4

    Combine Pasta and Sauce

    Add the cooked orzo pasta to the cheese sauce and mix until well coated. Drizzle in the truffle oil and stir to combine.

    Serve with Crispy Pork Belly

    Plate the cheesy orzo and top with the crispy pork belly. Drizzle with additional truffle oil if desired and serve immediately.
