Instructions
Paella base
- Roughly chop tomatoes, red pepper, onion, and garlic.
- Add some vegetable oil to a pan and cook for all the veggies for a couple of minutes at medium-high heat.
- Add the spice mix, salt and pepper. Cook for 10-15 minutes until all the ingredients have softened.
- Transfer to a blender jug and blend until you have a smooth sauce.
Paella
- Chop all the vegetables (leave the peas as they are added at the end). Place your paella pan on a stove burner or stovetop. Heat the oil of the jarred artichokes, add the chopped vegetables and sautée for a couple of minutes.
- When the veggies start to golden, add the paella base that we prepared before. Stir, and keep cooking for a couple of minutes. You may need to lower the heat as the sauce may splash.
- Add the rice and combine with the rest of the ingredients.
- Pour the vegetable broth and distribute the rice and vegetables equally around the paella pan as you should not stir or mix anymore at this point.
- Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for about 18-20 minutes. Turn the heat off before the rice is completely cooked, as it will finish cooking before serving.
- Add the peas, and garnishing ingredients such as roasted red peppers, lemon wedges, or chopped coriander.
- Cover the paella with clean tea towels and leave it for about 5-7 minutes before you start serving it.
- Serve and enjoy!
