đšâđł Instruktioner
- 1
Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Set aside. If using mussels or clams, scrub them clean and debeard mussels.
- 2
Heat the palm oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
- 3
Add the minced garlic, chopped bell peppers, and chili pepper. Cook for another 3-5 minutes until the peppers begin to soften.
- 4
Stir in the crushed tomatoes, coriander powder, and thyme. Cook for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly.
- 5
Pour in the vegetable broth or fish stock. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then season with salt and black pepper to taste.
- 6
Add the rinsed rice to the pot, stirring well to ensure each grain is coated in the sauce. Bring back to a gentle simmer.
- 7
Arrange the mixed seafood evenly over the rice. Cover the pot tightly with a lid (you can use foil under the lid to create a better seal). Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and the seafood is done. Avoid stirring during this time to prevent the rice from becoming mushy.
- 8
Once cooked, let the pot rest, covered, off the heat for 5-10 minutes. This allows the rice to finish steaming and absorb any remaining liquid.
- 9
Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and serve hot with lemon wedges on the side.
đĄ Proffstips
- âEnsure your seafood is fresh for the best flavor.
- âAdjust the amount of chili pepper to your spice preference.
- âDo not overcook the seafood; it will cook in the residual heat of the rice.
- âPalm oil adds a distinct flavor and color; if unavailable, a neutral oil like vegetable or canola can be used, but the authentic taste will be altered.
