Let's cook!
- Heat the olive oil in the paella pan on the plancha.
- Sauté the shallots, garlic and celery until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the chorizo and cook until it is slightly crispy and releases its oil, 4-5 minutes.If you are not using fresh sausage, it is best to take it out, and add it back in at the end.
- Add the pointed bell pepper and fennel and cook for another 3-4 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes and simmer until the tomatoes form a sauce, 5-6 minutes.
- Add the paella rice and stir well, allowing the rice to absorb the flavors, about 2 minutes.
- Pour in the saffron broth and bring to a boil. Simmer the rice gently, stirring occasionally, until almost all the liquid is absorbed (about 15-20 minutes).
- Add the mussels around the pan. Press them lightly into the rice.
- Add the prawns and squid rings. Continue cooking the paella until the clams open and the seafood is cooked (another 5-7 minutes).
- Sprinkle with peas and curly parsley.
- Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes.
Suggestion
- Serve the paella with wedges of lemon and pair with a dry white wine such as an Albariño or a glass of chilled rosé for a complete summer meal.
