Paella with Squid and Squid Ink
I often make stewed squid with ink and I like it. This time I turned it into a paella. You don't have to use a paella pan. A frying pan works well.
At Steps 4 and 5, reduce the heat and saute the ingredients slowly. If you use a small squid, the resultant squid rings will look too small. Use a large squid if available. I used a 25-cm long squid in this recipe. Recipe by Hoink

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Remove the innards from the squid body. If there is an ink sac, remove carefully from the innards. Keep the ink sac in the fridge.
- 2
Slice the squid body into rings (5 mm wide). Use the tentacles and the fins if you like. You don't need to clean the rice as you usually do. Just rinse quickly and drain in a colander.
- 3
Cut the asparagus into 2 cm lengths. If you can't obtain an ink sac from your squid or you need more ink, use or add more store-bought squid ink.
- 4
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a frying pan and add the garlic. Sauté over a low heat to infuse the oil.
- 5
Add the squid rings and saute quickly. Add the squid ink. Mix well over a low heat.
- 6
Increase the heat to high. Add the rice and mix well. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and stir thoroughly.
- 7
Add the water, soup stock cube, and salt and stir all together. Add the asparagus. Once it starts to bubble vigorously, cover with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 15-20 minutes.
- 8
If you don't have a suitable lid, use aluminum foil to cover. The heat should look like this in the photo.
- 9
Meanwhile combine the aioli ingredients. By adding a small amount of milk, you can soften the strong flavour of the garlic.
- 10
After it's cooked, stir all together and serve at the table at once. Serve with lemon wedges and the aioli.

Paella Paella
This food is very delicious!!! 👍 I have tried this food for the first time in Spain, because it is one of the famous Spanish dishes, and I think that it is a must for me to try to make it at home, but this is not an authentic Paella recipe, because:1. I didn't cook it in a Paella Pan, but in a non stick skillet, because I don't have Paella Pan.2. I didn't use safron and artichoke, because it's so rare and pricey here.So, This is just my version of it... 😊

Spanish Paella Spanish Paella
A paella pan is ideal when making this Spanish Valencia dish; consisting of chicken, sausage and available seafood ingredients. [In lieu of a paella pan, a very large pan can be used]This dish can be prepared outdoors (gas grill) or indoors using a large burner on the stove. Near the end of the cooking process you will need a lid to cover the pan - I use a metal pizza pan.*The ideal paella has a toasted rice bottom, called socarrat. The key ingredient is the saffron threads and other types of seafood can be substituted!

Mixed Paella Mixed Paella
A senior co-worker of mine made me this dish years ago, and I was impressed that you can make it at home. She gave me the recipe and it has changed as I've made it over and over. I stopped using the paella pan because it was shallow, difficult to mix in, and made my stove dirty. You can make a good paella just by using a frying pan or a shallow pot. I've been using my beloved "Le Creuset" pan.It looks very nice if you use blue mussels, but I couldn't acquire any this time so I used hamaguri clams instead. You can also use asari clams. I'd like readers to add some kind of clam because it gives off a delicious soup. It's not exciting unless the rice is yellow. If the saffron doesn't give it enough color, add turmeric or a little bit of yellow food coloring. Recipe by Setsubunhijiki
