A vibrant, nourishing and incredibly comforting bowl. The flavours of paella in a quick, soupy rice.

Brothy Smoky Pepper Prawns With Saffron Rice

Place the saffron and ice into a small bowl and set aside. The ice will melt and the saffron will bloom.

Meanwhile, peel, trim and finely grate the garlic directly into a saucepan. Pick the parsley leaves and thinly slice the stalks. Add the stalks to the pan with the garlic, along with a drizzle of olive oil.

Get the saucepan over a medium-high heat. Cook for 2-3 mins, stirring until the parsley stalks have softened. Add the tomato purée and smoked paprika and fry off for 3-4 mins until the tomato purée has darkened.

Pour the stock into the saucepan and bring it up to a gentle simmer. Once simmering, decrease the heat to low, add the prawns and leave them to poach for 2-3 mins until cooked through (skim any foam out and discard). Add ½ the saffron water and season to taste with salt and lemon juice.

Pour the remaining saffron water over the cooked rice and reheat. Make sure to stir the rice thoroughly after reheating.

Divide the rice between bowls and ladle in the broth. Top with the poached prawns and parsley leaves. Drizzle over some olive oil and serve with any remaining lemon, and some chopped red chilli if you like.

Very tasty, I added chilli flakes instead of the red chilli Coriander instead of parsley would also be nice I also used chicken stock instead of veg stock & added a tsp of sesame oil as I checked the comments and someone said it needed a bit more depth

Simple but tasty. Lacks a bit of depth but that’s understandable given how quick it is and how few ingredients. Would be easy to adapt if you’ve got the time to give a little extra effort

Really simple. Didn't have tom puree so just added a wee bit of Chopped Tom's. Delish and even quicker if using day old rice. Perfect mid week dinner.
