    This Spanish-style paella is perfect for a weeknight meal. It takes just a few minutes to prepare and then all you have to do is let it simmer. You can make a paella using a pan that you already have. The key is to find a pan that's big enough for the rice. Don’t stress if you don’t have every single ingredient. Paella is versatile and can be made to fit whatever ingredients you have on hand.

    Ingredients

    • 1 tablespoon olive oil
    • 1 sliced leek or onion
    • 110g chopped chorizo
    • 1 teaspoon turmeric
    • 300g long grain rice
    • 1l hot fish stock
    • 200g defrosted frozen pea
    • 400g defrosted frozen seafood mix

    Method

    • Add the leeks to a deep pan, and heat for five minutes without browning.

    • Cut the chorizo into small chunks. Fry them to release their oils.

    • Stir the turmeric and rice in the pan. Pour the stock in and cook everything until it’s done.

    • Bring the pot to a boil, then simmer over low-moderate heat for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

    • Stir in the peas for five minutes, add the seafood to the rice and cook it for 1-2 minutes or until the rice is cooked.

    • Salt and pepper to taste.

    • Let stand, cover for 10 minutes before serving.

    • Serving Suggestions: Add a squeeze of lemon and garnish with parsley before serving.
