1 | Fry chopped onion and root vegetables – carrots, parsley and celery in any proportion in oil. Add seafood – this recipe uses 2 bags of “sea cocktail” which includes octopus, small clams, cuttlefish rings, prawns and other animals. Stir-fry briefly and add the round grain rice. |
2 | Season the mixture with salt, pepper, curry powder and turmeric – I would leave out the curry powder next time, but it happened. |
3 | Pour in the fish stock (ideally), add more chopped yellow peppers with cherry tomatoes and finally large prawns and clams. |
4 | Cover with a lid and simmer gently for about 15 minutes until the rice is soft and the prawns are pink. This was my first attempt at homemade paella, so I apologize that it’s not quite tip top. It will be better next time 🙂 |
