**BLACK RICE WITH SHRIMP**

BLACK RICE WITH SHRIMP

It is a rich dish that appears in different areas of the Mediterranean, it can be tried in Italy where you can taste the Riso nero a la Fiorentina or the same Riso al nero di seppia. In the Spanish kitchen is frequent in the east where you can see many examples. In the Graode itself the city of Castellón, as well as fishing villages of the Alicante coast: Torrevieja, Guardamar, Santa Pola, Villajoyosa. Also typical of the Catalan coast, especially the Ampurdán in Gerona, it is a typical dish of the town of Palafrugell. To make it can be in a pan or container in which the rice was cooked. It is eaten freshly prepared. A sauce boat with alioli is usually placed on the table so that the diners can mix this sauce in the rice dish, or put in a small portion (walnut) as an accompaniment. Here I present an easy and simple way to make this delicious dish, enjoy it.
