Spicy shrimps with saffron rice



Over the past few days we had both hot summer days and thunder storms with heavy rain. As I am writing, the sky is slowly becoming dark with clouds but only a few moments ago, the sun was smiling at me through the wine leaves. So yes, we had some pretty unpredictable weather this week.

Since summer is here, we are all looking for light meals and spicy shrimps with saffron rice was on my list today. For the shrimps you need (besides the shrimps of course) a few cloves of garlic, olive oil, chili flakes and a splash of white wine to complete the assembly. To go with the shrimps, some saffron rice cooked as you like it. As a personal touch, I added some garlic and chili to mine. For all of you who like summer rain!
