Today I would like to share with you a very simple but very good recipe, by the prestigious Spanish Chef, Karlos Arguiñano: "Rice with artichokes and prawns".
These are the Ingredients (for 4 people): 300 grams of rice. 6 artichokes. 1 litre of fumet. 150 grams of prawns. 3 pear tomatoes. 2 leeks. 12 fresh garlic. 1 lemon. Extra virgin olive oil. Salt. Parsley.
To start, put a pan for cooking paella, with a little stream of oil. Peel and grind the leeks and fresh garlic, add them and let them poach well. Clean and cut 3 artichokes, add them and add salt. Rack the tomatoes and add them --I remove the skin and pips--. Cook everything for 5 or 6 minutes.
Add the rice --I always rinse the rice with cold water before, so that the grains do not stick--, soak it a little bit and pour the hot broth --To have the fumet, boil the raw prawns in water--. Cook it for 16 minutes. Put salt to your taste.
Peel the prawns, add salt and add them. Turn off the stove burner and let it sit for a couple of minutes.
Peel the rest of the artichokes and cut them into thin small slices. Fry them, in a pan with oil, and drain them on a plate covered with absorbent kitchen paper.
Decorate the paella with artichoke chips, a sprig of parsley and lemon.
And this one should be the result:
