STEP BY STEP
1.- Level the paella
The first thing we need to do in this rice recipe is to prepare our paella, place it on your adjustable tripod and make sure to level it.
2.- Heat the oil
With the paella pan leveled, introduce the oil and let it heat up.
3.- Prepare the sofrito
Once we have our oil ready, it is time to prepare the sofrito, introduce a spoonful of paprika de la vera and then the sofrito, which, in this recipe, we have prepared previously.
4.- Pearl the rice
When we have the sauce ready, we cook the rice.
5.- Add the broth
It is the moment to introduce the dark broth, preferably already at boiling point, for this recipe, we recommend to do it with several bones and baked vegetables well toasted, deglazing the tray with red wine to recover all the flavor stuck and give color.
6.- Add the saffron infusion
Once the broth begins to boil, add the saffron infusion, for this, we recommend 8 saffron threads per person, with a pinch of salt, which will help to make it powdery. It is best to let it infuse in warm water for 1 hour.
7.- Shred the meat
Crumble the portions of oxtail meat and introduce them around your rice.
8.- Let it cook
Now we have the most difficult step: wait for the rice to cook with our glass of wine. For the first 6 minutes, use a high heat power, for the rest of the time, medium heat.
9.- Rest and decorate
You only need one last step, top your rice dish with the oxtail meat and let it soak in the sauce.
10.- ENJOY YOUR RICE
After following these steps, you’ll have a thin-layered rice with stewed oxtail. Enjoy every bite — you might just end up mooing from how good it is. Enjoy, rice lovers!
