SERVES

4 people

ingredients

  • 1l full flavoured stock (fish, chicken or vegetable stock depending on dish accompanied)
  • 60ml dry sherry or dry vermouth
  • 24 saffron stamens, lightly toasted in a dry skillet and crumbled into the stock
IN STOCK
  • 1/2 tsp cumin, ground
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon, ground
  • Salt the stock according to taste
  • 30ml Nunez de Prado olive oil
IN STOCK
  • 2 shallots, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 3 spring onions cut into thin slices
  • 275g bomba rice
IN STOCK

METHOD

  1. In a saucepan, warm the stock with the sherry and spices to just below simmering and hold at this temperature for a few minutes to release the flavours; taste for salt.
  2. When the stock reaches temperature, place a 4 person paella pan over a medium-low heat, add the olive oil and gently soften the chopped shallots without colouring them; stir in the rice and coat well.
  3. Add the stock, garlic and spring onions; adjust the heat to cook the rice at a gentle rolling boil; shake the pan gently to monitor cooking, but do not stir.
  4. When the liquid has been absorbed - and the rice has started to quietly sizzle – remove pan from heat and cover with greaseproof paper for a few minutes before serving.
