Shrimp and broad beans with lemon jasmine rice

Unique and tasty dish. The sweet of the prawn tails breaks with the bitter taste of the fresh broad beans, mitigated by the marsala which at the same time enhances the shellfish. A little lemon-scented rice adds freshness to the dish. Good even cold as a summer salad.

Shrimp and broad beans with lemon jasmine rice step 1

step 1

Let's move on to the beans. Remove them from the pod and carefully clean them of the skin that covers them individually. To do this it is sufficient to cut (with a fingernail) one end of the bean and gently press the opposite end between thumb and forefinger. Set them aside.

Now prepare the rice, boiling it in lightly salted water with the remaining half of the lemon. Squeeze it into the rice cooking water and then leave the peel pressed to boil with the rice. For this type of dish I recommend using more fragrant Jasmine or Thai rice.
