  1. GOLDEN RICE

    Rinse the rice and place in a pot with the turmeric. Submerge in 200ml of salted water and stir through. Place over a medium-high heat and pop on a lid. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes until most of the water has been absorbed. Keeping the lid on, remove from the heat and set aside to steam for a further 10 minutes.

  2. SAUTÉ THE SQUID

    Boil the kettle. Rinse the squid to get rid of any residue from the packet and pat dry with some paper towel. Place a large pan for the paella over a high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, sauté the squid for 3-4 minutes until cooked through and starting to brown. Transfer to a bowl on completion. Toss through some seasoning and Lemon zest to taste, reserving some for the paella. Dilute the stock with 30ml of boiling water.

  3. SPEEDY PAELLA

    When the rice has 10 minutes remaining, return the pan to a medium heat with another drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the diced Onion for 3-4 minutes until soft and translucent, shifting occasionally. Add the grated garlic and halved Baby Tomatoes, and fry for another minute until fragrant. Stir in the diluted stock, Smoked Paprika, chopped olives, White Wine, and some Lemon zest to taste. Simmer for 3-4 minutes, stirring continuously, until reduced and sticky. On completion, add in the cooked squid and stir through until coated and reheated.

  4. FINISHING TOUCHES

    Keeping the pan over the heat, add in the cooked turmeric rice, the Peas, three-quarters of the chopped parsley, and a squeeze of Lemon juice. Stir for about a minute until combined. Season to taste and remove the pan from the heat.
