Greek Recipes - Kalamarakia Kritharoto (Squid and Kritharaki Pasta)

Описание: Kritharoto has become a popular dish in Greece in the past few years. It's made with Kritharaki, a Greek type of pasta similar to Orzo but smaller. An interesting alternative to the Italian risotto, Kritharoto goes very well with seafood which is the reason for today's recipe, Kalamarakia Kritharoto.

This recipe comes from the book 'Under The Olive Tree: Recipes from my Greek Kitchen' by Irini Tzortzoglou.

Irini Tzortzoglou is a Greek chef and winner of the Master Chef 2019 UK TV show competition.
