|| 30 MIN PAELLA || .
I love Spanish food! This is a quick(ish) method I use to make paella at home for a fun summer dinner. I’ve used prawn and chorizo in this one but you can substitute with veg, tofu or beans .
Ingredients . 🍚 300g Paella rice . 🧅 1 onion . 🥄 3 tablespoons Cajun spice . 🧄 1 clove garlic . 🌶 1 red chilli . 🌶 1 red pepper . 🍃 Peas . 🍅 Three tablespoons of tinned tomato . 🌽 2 vegetable stock pots . 🥄 1 tablespoon Paprika . 🌿 Bunch of fresh parsley . 🍋 1 lemon . 💧 3 cups boiling water . 🥄 Black pepper . 🍤 1 pack of prawn and 1 pack of chorizo .
1️⃣ Peel and chop the onion and garlic and add to the pan with olive oil. Cook for 5 minutes .
2️⃣ Chop the pepper, chilli and half the parsley, and add to the pan. Cook another 5 minutes .
3️⃣Stir in the tinned tomato, veg stock, paprika and Cajun spice .
4️⃣ Add the prawn and chorizo or alternative toppings and cook another 5 minutes .
5️⃣ Add the paella rice and stir, then add 3 cups of boiling water. Add the peas .
6️⃣ Make sure everything is covered by the water, stir one more time and then cover the pan and simmer on low heat for 15 minutes .
7️⃣ Check the rice is soft, if not cook a little longer and add some water if you need. The trick is not to stir the rice at all once the pan is covered so you get a tasty golden crust at the bottom of the paella! .
8️⃣ Season with black pepper, squeeze on some lemon and garnish with the remaining parsley and lemon slices 😋 .
