Tasty paella

Ingredients

• 1-2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, crushed or finely chopped
• 3 medium tomatoes, chopped
• 1 1/4 cup paella rice (we used Delmaine)
• 1/4 teaspoon turmeric
• 4 cups hot chicken or vegetable stock
• 300g frozen seafood mix, thawed
• 1 cup frozen shrimps, thawed
• 1 cup frozen peas, thawed
• black pepper, to season
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1 Heat a non-stick pan for a few minutes with oil. Add onion, garlic and tomatoes. Cook for about 5 minutes, or until softened. Add rice and stir to coat grains evenly. Add turmeric and stock. Bring to the boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 20 minutes. The rice should retain its shape and be slightly firm. Stir occasionally.

Step 2 Add seafood and shrimps. Mix to distribute evenly through rice. Cook for 8-10 more minutes, until heated through. Add peas during final 5 minutes of cooking seafood. Season with pepper. Sprinkle with parsley before serving.
