A vibrant Spanish rice dish with shrimp, mussels and saffron.
Ingredients
- 400g paella rice
- 1L fish or chicken stock
- Pinch of saffron

- 500g mussels, cleaned
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 red pepper, chopped
- 200g tomatoes, grated

Method
Heat the stock with the saffron so it can infuse. Cook the onion, garlic and red pepper in olive oil in a wide paella pan until soft.
Add the grated tomato and cook until reduced, then stir in the rice to coat in the oil.
