RECIPE OF "El Chef del garito"
Popularly known as El Chef de Garito, Germán and Bernabé, two cooks, lovers of the world of rice and lifelong friends, began publishing their recipes online in 2020 to share their way of having fun and enjoying .
This desire to cook and share his recipes is born, as its name indicates, in the Garito, the meeting place of his friends where they meet periodically, cooking and enjoying the pleasure of sharing around the table in good company.

STEP BY STEP
 HOT BATH FOR LOBSTERS
We are going to divide our 2 lobsters, we will boil one of them in hot water for 4 minutes, after that, we will extract all the meat to use it as decoration after the rice has been finished.
We cut the second lobster and use it for the broth for our rice.
A SPLASH OF BRANDY
We place the chopped lobster in the pan and mark it, then we flambé it with brandy and set it aside.
With our lobsters prepared we begin to make the sauce, we add the onion, paprika, crushed ñora and grated tomato.
SOFRITO WITH SAFFRON INFUSION
When all the ingredients are reduced, we add the cuttlefish pieces, stir a couple of times and pour the fumet over the sauce.
When the fumet begins to boil, we add the saffron infusion and the rice.
LET'S NOT MISS THE LOBSTER BROTH
While the rice is preparing, stir from time to time to prevent it from sticking.
Around 5 minutes, we add the chopped lobster that we had reserved and let the rice cook. After 13-14 minutes, we turn off the heat.
