Chefs note: don’t use a wide pot such as a Dutch oven to make this recipe we found that a large service area can result in uneven cooking of the grains the narrow diameter of the saucepan is a better than Choice don’t peek at the shrimp after adding them to the rice except while stirring them into the rice after the first 10 minutes keep the lid on traps heat in the pan so the shrimp cooks through

Tasty Greek Spinach and Rice (Spanakorizo) Tasty Greek Spinach and Rice (Spanakorizo)
This Spinach and Rice/Vegetarian dish is a quick lunch or dinner meal for the whole family. The main ingredient is Spinach, which is and I also consider to be good for you. The additional ingredients give this dish a spectacular boost of taste. There are two ways that this recipe can be cooked either with tomatoes or just plain olive oil…:) Since both are cooked the exact same way all you need to do is to figure out which taste you enjoy more. 🙂Dipping fresh bread into the tomato sauce, and munching on feta cheese just makes this dish even more tastier. 🙂I wasn’t able to provide pictures for this recipe besides the featured image, because of everything that happened with our beautiful dog Marka’s passing. 😦 Foodzesty -

Shrimp Doria (Japanese Rice Gratin) 🍤 Shrimp Doria (Japanese Rice Gratin) 🍤
Doria (ドリア) is a Japanese style Western dish. These types of dishes are called “Yoshoku” and are served in Western-style restaurants in Japan. A doria is a type of gratin. Unlike a casserole, where everything is mixed together, a gratin has layers (usually rice, sauce, and cheese).In this gratin, the creamy béchamel sauce pairs really nicely with shrimp. The ingredients are fairly simple, but the doria has a rich and delicious flavor!This is the first doria I’ve ever made, and after tasting it, it is definitely something I’ll be making regularly! 😋This recipe was heavily influenced by the website “Recipe Tin Japan.”#Dinner #Seafood Chris Gan -
