crni rižot

Crni rižot is a rice dish coloured with cuttlefish ink. Podravka’s recipe cleans and dices the cuttlefish, reserving its ink sac. Chopped onion cooks in olive oil before garlic and cuttlefish are added. White wine, bay leaf and vegetable seasoning join the pan while the cuttlefish cooks.[1]

The ink, chopped parsley and partly cooked rice are added near the end. They finish cooking together over gentle heat. Podravka serves the risotto warm with parsley leaves and grated cheese.[1]
