Paella! Step by Step with pictures!

FlyingTivo

I allways wanted to make a video of making paella, but it was too difficult, so pictures will have to suffice!

Sorry it was not on the BGE, but i have this special burner for paella that makes it so easy.

Ingredients:

Large U12 shrimp depending on how many people are being fed

750gr of Pork rib cut in small pieces

750gr of Chiken wings, drums

125gr Spanish Chorizo

3 Green bell peppers diced

3 Large white Onions blended

3 large Tomatos blended

500gr Baby Squid sliced in rings

500gr Baby octopus whole

Clams as many as you like(pre cook)

Small Artichokes cut in halves(pre cooked)

Azafran8(boiled in 2 cups of water)

Chiken broth

Clam broth(from prevously cooked clams filtered with coffee filters)

2kgs of Rice non stick

This serves aprox, 30 people!

N´Joy!

Step 1:

Chopped Garlic in plenty of olive oil

Step 2:

Cook the shrimp with the garlic.

Step 3:

Remove the shrimp save and add the pork ribs and chorizo.

Step 4:

Add the Chiken wings,drums.

Step 5:

Add the Green Bell Peppers diced.

Step 6:

Add the Squid and Octopus!

Step 7:

Add the Tomato and Onion.

This is the final result of the Sofrito after a few minutes of simmer down.

Step 8:

Add the Rice.

Mix it well in the Sofrito for about 2 minutes so it absorbs all the flavour.

Step 9:

Add the Clams, Artichokes, Shrimp, Clam broth, chicken broth and the azafran broth, stir slowly so it distributes evenly!

Fix the large shrimps on top so it looks pretty!

Let it simmer covered with aluminium foil, checking regularly, if still missing liquid add chiken broth(hot).

Final Result, Delicious!

Nola:

You are right, i had never before covered it, but it was chilli outside and the wind was blowing and was afraid the top rice would not get cooked. So its optional depending on conditions.
