Shrimp perloo is a traditional Lowcountry one-pot rice dish from South Carolina, featuring shrimp cooked together with rice so that the grains absorb the seafood’s natural sweetness and depth of flavor. The dish is typically prepared by building a flavorful base with aromatics and rendered fat, then simmering everything together until the rice is tender and infused. It is a staple of coastal and Gullah Geechee cuisine, known for its balanced, savory profile and cohesive texture.
