  • Clean cuttlefish, keep the ink pouches and cut into long strips.
  • Saute the fish with the onions. Add the ink and half the amount of rice marinade.

  • Add thyme, bay leafs, cloves, an onion, the carrots and leaks to the marinade and put in the lobsters.

  • Leave to boil for a while and add one more cup of juice.
