Hola…this is one of my favourite dishes ever…I can close my eyes and imagine I am having dinner in a square in Barcelona under a palm tree on a warm summer night. But I’m in London, and the.seafood is from my excellent local Primrose Hill fishmonger, La Petite Poissonnerie. This recipe is created with all the amazing moorish flavours that are so special and it is really simple to make and only needs one pan. If you are feeding more people just double or triple the quantities, as needed. Just make sure you use a big enough pan.
Serves 2-3.
Ingredients:
2 cloves of minced garlic
3 cups of hot fish stock (I use a half of a Knorr fish Stock Pot, they are brilliant)
A tiny sprig of fresh chopped oregano (or 1/2 a teaspoon of dried)
1 tablespoon of sweet Spanish Sherry
1 small finely chopped white onion
½ finely chopped red pepper
1 cup of paella rice (or risotto rice)
¼ to ½ a teaspoon of hot smoked paprika (depending on how hot you like it)
½ a cup of tinned chopped tomatoes
½ teaspoon of saffron threads
600g approx of mixed raw seafood, I used squid, prawns, clams and mussels
½ cup of frozen petit pois
A sprig of finely chopped parsley
Lemon zest from 1-2 lemons
Salt and pepper to taste (can be done at the end of cooking)
oh and a glug of olive oil!
