Easy recipe of black rice
INGREDIENTS:
STEP BY STEP
1.- Heat the oil
Add some oil that serves to level the pan. the oil should be centered. Add some salt too, and light the fire!
2.- Fry the squid
When the oil is hot, add the calamari. We start to fry
3.- Set aside the squid
When the calamari get brown, put them aside on outside of the pan and fry two cloves of sliced garlic.
4.- Frying the prawn tails
Add the peeled prawns to fry them. We do like that because calamari need more time to fry.
5.- Add the ink
When calamari and peeled prawns are sautéed put them aside on outside of the pan and add grated or crushed onion, fry for a few minutes.
6.- Add paprika
When the onion gets brown add the grated or crushed fresh tomato and fry with the onion for a few minutes.
7.- Add the broth
Add 800 mL fish broth, we add twice the broth than rice. Season with salt, the amount will go to taste but it is important to note that fish in itself is already salty, you should keep taste during the process.
8.- COOKING, COOKING, COOKING!!!
No stir again not to break the rice grain. Strong heat up to start to boil. Fire is essential in this process, the aim is that at 20 minutes the rice is cooked and the paella without broth.
READY TO EAT!!
After 20 minutes of cooking, the paella should be dry and the rice cooked, let rest and ready to eat.
