  1. SPANISH FLAVOURS

    Boil a full kettle. Place a pan (big enough for the paella) over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the diced onion until soft and browned, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the Spanish spice mix and fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes (shifting occasionally). Pour in the wine and cook until almost evaporated, 1-2 minutes.

  2. LOOK AT THAT RICE!

    When almost all the wine has evaporated, stir through the rice and fry, 1-2 minutes (shifting frequently). Add the tomato passata and mix until combined. Slowly pour in 200ml of boiling water. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, and simmer until the rice is al dente and all the liquid has been absorbed, 30-35 minutes. If the rice is still undercooked, add an extra splash of water and simmer until al dente.

  3. CHOP-CHOP

    Place the chopped walnuts in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.

  4. ZESTY SALSA

    In a bowl, toss together the diced pepper, ½ the chopped parsley, a squeeze of lemon juice, a pinch of lemon zest, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning.

  5. PERFECT PAELLA

    Once the paella is cooked, remove from the heat and mix through ½ the chopped chorizo. Add a generous squeeze of lemon juice, a sweetener (to taste), and seasoning. Cover and allow to steam, 5-8 minutes.

  6. PHOTO-READY PLATE

    Dish up the paella. Scatter over the pepper salsa, the remaining chorizo, and the toasted walnuts. Garnish with the remaining parsley and serve any remaining lemon wedges on the side. Stunning, Chef!
