BULL-STRENGTH BROTH

We need a strong broth like a bull with which to combat the cold, we introduce aove into the paella and fry the crumbled oxtail, making sure it is toasted on all sides, we remove a little of the aove to use it later.

We remove the oxtail and add the vegetables. When they are sautéed, we add chopped tomato and the wine, ground black pepper and two bay leaves. We pour 4 liters of water and leave it on low heat for 4/5 hours.

SAUTEE OF BULL

We add the extra olive oil that we had previously saved to the paella and add the crumbled oxtail again. We sauté and add the vegetables.

When it is ready, we add the grated tomato with its garlic and then we add a splash of rum, letting it reduce over low heat.

SWEET PAPRIKA WITH BULL FLAVOR

When the liquids are reduced, we add a tablespoon of paprika.

Following this, we introduce the broth, 2.7 liters for the 750 grams of rice.

NOW TO COOK THE RICE

When the broth begins to boil, add the rice and distribute it over the paella.

It should be kept on high heat for 7/8 minutes with the rest on low heat. Keep in mind that if you use sendra or maratelli rice, ideally it should be 15 minutes of cooking.

DECORATE AND TASTE

When it is almost the end of the paella, decorate it with pieces of pumpkin and whole parts of the oxtail.

Having followed these steps, you will be able to enjoy this oxtail rice with pumpkin as much as our chef, which gives strength to the body and works wonders against the cold. We hope you like the rice.
