Quick Seafood Paella
Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp sunflower oil
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 1 red pepper, seeded and sliced
- 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 230 gram can chopped tomatoes
- 1 tsp turmeric
- 300 gram / 10 oz long grain rice
- 1 1/3 litres / 2 1/4 pints vegetable stock
- 450 gram bag frozen mixed seafood (prawns, mussels and squid rings), thawed
- 175 gram / 6 oz green beans, halved
- handful of chopped fresh parsley
- 1 lemon, cut into wedges
Instructions
Heat the oil in a large frying pan and cook the onion and pepper for 5 minutes until softened but not brown. Stir in the garlic, tomatoes and turmeric and cook for 1 minute more, stirring occasionally. Tip in the rice and cook for 1 minute, stirring to coat the grains. Pour in the stock, stir well and bring to the boil, then simmer uncovered for 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the rice is almost cooked and most of the stock has been absorbed. Add the seafood and beans and cook for 3 - 4 minutes more. Stir in the parsley; season. Serve straight from the pan with lemon wedges. Serves 4
