Cooking Instructions

75 minutes
  1. 1

    In the paella pan, level the oil, and when it's hot, add a little salt to prevent the meat from splattering. Add the meat, season it, and when it's slightly browned, add the liver, season again, and continue sautéing until the meat is well browned.

  2. 2

    Add the vegetables, season, and sauté. Add the grated tomato and sauté. Toast the saffron on one side of the pan and stir. Add the sweet paprika and stir immediately to prevent burning, then pour in water until it covers the rivets of the handles.

  3. 3

    Let it cook for 25 minutes (when it starts to boil, add food coloring to taste and place 2 sprigs of rosemary in the paella, which will be removed just before adding the rice). After 25 minutes, the broth should be just below the rivets of the handles; adjust the salt.

  4. 4

    Adjust the salt if necessary and add the rice evenly across the paella. Once well distributed, let it cook for 18 minutes (do not stir during cooking, as the rice will release starch and turn into a risotto instead of a paella).

  5. 5

    After 18 minutes, turn off the heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. It's delicious, you'll love it.

  6. 6

Desde muy pequeña me ha encantado la cocina, ya mi madre se encargo de enseñarme a cocinar, cuando se iban al campo a trabajar ya me dejaba a cargo de preparar la comida del medio día, desde entonces no he parado de cocinar y de recopilar recetas y ajustarlas a mi estilo. Ahora a mis 50 años me ha entrado el gusanillo de compartir todo lo que he aprendido a través de esta gran ventana.--------------------------------------------- Si quieres visitar mi nuevo Blog: http://lacocinadelolidominguez.es/ -----------------O mi antiguo Blog: http://lacocinadelolidominguez.blogspot.com --------------------Si quieres visitar mi Canal de You Tube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5ONfXPjWgqElh0NZaRJ1tg
