Directions

1

["Boil 2 cups of water with salt and cook the clams and the mussels until they are open. If any of them are still closed, remove them. Boil in the same water the remaining sea food for a couple of minutes. Drain the liquid and set aside for the fish stock.", "Peel the prawns, king prawns and/or Norway lobster leaving some of them unpeeled for decoration.", "Prepare 1 litre fish stock using the water we set aside before, fish/ chicken powdered stock (or stock cubes) and the prawn skins. Add the yellow food colouring. Drain and set aside.", "Put the frying pan/ paella onto heat with 2-4 tablespoons olive oil. Fry on a heavy fire the sliced chicken until slightly brown but not completely cooked. Set aside.", "Do the same with the squid stripes.", "Add 2 tablespoons olive oil and the onion finely chopped. When the chopped onion is transparent, add the red pepper finely chopped and cook until tender.", "Now add the tomatoes finely chopped and cook for 10 minutes approximately until you have a thick tomato sauce, or just add the 100 cl. tomato sauce.", "Peel the garlic and smash it with some parsley until you get a paste.", "Add 1 lt. fish stock, the garlic and parsley paste and the remaining vegetables to the frying pan with the thick sauce and let it simmer. The resulting \"soup\"" must have a salty taste as the rice will absorb much of the salt and flavour. Cook for 10 minutes or until vegetables are \""al dente\"".""
