Effortless cooking: no need to constantly stir the rice.
Ingredients:
  • 1L (4 cups) fish stock
  • 1/2 tsp saffron threads
  • 27.30 gm olive oil
  • 300g skinless firm white fish fillets, cut into 4cm pieces
  • 1 chorizo, thinly sliced diagonally
  • 1 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 5.00 gm paprika
  • 1 long fresh red chilli, thinly sliced
  • 1 small red capsicum, thinly sliced
  • 1 small yellow capsicum, thinly sliced
  • 330g (1 1/2 cups) arborio rice
  • 125ml (1/2 cup) white wine
  • 8 large green prawns, unpeeled
  • 200g squid tubes, thinly sliced into rings
  • 80g (1/2 cup) frozen baby peas
  • Chopped fresh continental parsley, to serve
Instructions:
  • In a saucepan over high heat, bring the stock and saffron to a boil. Once boiling, remove from heat and cover to keep warm.
  • Preheat a 34cm paella pan or large frying pan over medium-high heat with oil. Season the fish and cook for 2 minutes, turning occasionally, until nearly done. Remove from the pan and cover with a bowl.
  • Cook chorizo until browned, then add onion, garlic, paprika, chili, and capsicum. Cook until vegetables are soft. Stir in rice for 1 minute, then add wine and cook until evaporated.
  • Pour most of the stock mixture into the pan, leaving 80ml (1/3 cup) aside. Lower the heat and let it simmer without stirring for 15 minutes.
  • Gently nestle prawns and squid into the rice, then pour in the reserved stock. Simmer for 10 minutes. Add fish and simmer for 5 more minutes or until liquid is nearly absorbed.
  • Sprinkle peas over the dish, cover with foil, let it rest for 10 minutes, then garnish with parsley before serving.
