‘Doria’ is a rice dish. Early 20th century in Japan, a Swiss chef created this dish for the first time. Butter rice or pilaf is covered with white sauce and grated parmesan cheese, then baked in the oven. ‘Doria’ is very popular in Japan.

I cooked this Prawn Doria using left over prawns (and lobster) at a Christmas time. The yellow rice is coloured by grated carrot. It’s prettier and more nutritious.
