After being lazy and eat instant noodle at home for a while. I decided to make somethings that relate to my job a little bit. Here we go, "Paella"
First one is the rice. I use the short grain rice from Spain. Look at the package, "Suitable for Paella". It means if I mess up with my Paella this time, I have to excuse. hee hee. never ever!!!
The seafood that Im gonna throw in my dish (I though its not gonna be enough at the first time)
Infuse the herb, garlic and saffron into the olive oil first
Add rice and cook for mins till the rice start to change the colour a bit
Add my Sofrito and cook for 3 mins maybe. cant remember. Also add salt too.
Add white wine and reduce then fish stock
Once rice started to suck the juice a little bit, place pieces of fish and squids on the top
Let it cook for a while then add chickens, Prawns and the rest of ingredients on the top
Because I smart enough to not spend 100+ dollars for the Parella pan ans also my lovely bloody electric stove doesn't work too well. That's why I have to do this to make it cook evenly.
Once I take the foil out add all ingredients on the top. I have to ask myself...... "Where the hell is my rice?"
These are some ingredients that Im gonna add into my Paella.
1. Roasted Articokes (Marinated in apple venegar, herbs, olive oil)
2. Citrus chicken (Marinated in Lemon zest, Orange zest, Orange juice, Olive oil, Herb, S+P)
3. Herbs (Rosemarry, Thyme)
4. Sofrito (Slow cooked capsicums, tomatoes and onions)

Meanwhile, I have to cook my crabs and mussels seperately because the pan is not big enough. Right now I realise myself that I might be too hungry when I started to make it.

However, it's not bad at all. :-)
