Ingredients

1 tbsp olive oil

1 onion , finely chopped

1 red and 1 yellow pepper , deseeded and sliced

2 garlic cloves , sliced

250g paella rice

850ml hot vegetable stock (we used Kallo very low salt stock)

pinch saffron

400g seafood mix (we used a bag of frozen mixed seafood, defrosted before use)

juice ½ small lemon

small handful flat-leaf parsley , roughly chopped

Method

Heat the oil in a large saucepan and soften the onion for 6-7 mins. Add the pepper and garlic, cook for 2 mins more, then stir in the paella rice and cook for 1 min, stirring to coat.

Pour in the stock, add the saffron and bring to the boil. Cook, uncovered, at a gentle bubble, for 20 mins, stirring occasionally until the rice is tender.

Stir in the seafood and lemon juice and cook for 2 mins or until piping hot and completely cooked through. Serve in warm bowls scattered with the parsley.
