I learned this recipe with my aunty when I visited her in Madrid. She is my dad's sister and looking at her while cooking thought me to take time and appreciate each ingredient on the dish. This version has chorizo so the purists might not appreciate me calling it paella. In fact paella started as a humble dish where all leftovers where used, mixed with rice and cooked over open fire. Nowadays it is a well known dish and has many variations, the mixta is my favourite! If you start with a great fish stock, it's half way to success. #mycookbook #globalfoodtour #spanish #paella #familyrecipe #rice

Steps to make to make Paella Mixta de la tía Ana María

1. First, you have to prepare the fish stock. Fry the onions in 2 TBSP of vegetable oil, add the head of the fish, the water, salt and bay leaf. Put the lid on and let the head cook for about 10 minutes. Once it's ready, switch off the hob and start with the paella.
2. In a pestle and mortar, grind the saffron until it becomes a powder. It has to be really dry for it to become a powder, some people put it in the microwave but I've never done that, I keep it in a sealed, dry container until the minute I grind it. Now, with the powder, add half a cup of cold water and leave it to rest for now.
3. To make sure your paella cooks well, the fire has to be well distributed all around the bottom of the pan.
4. In the paella pan, pour 2 TBSP of olive oil, fry the garlic and once it is golden, remove it and set aside.
5. Add the chorizo, let it release the fat and the beautiful red colour into the oil then add the chicken. Once the chorizo is done, remove it and set aside with the garlic. Add the red pepper, brown the chicken on both sides, then remove both and set aside.
6. Add the seafood and the rice together. Mix it well and start putting everything back into the pan again. The garlic first, then the chorizo. Stir it well, add the saffron and make sure you used it all by putting some of the stock in the pestle and mortar to remove any remaining bit. Mix it all very well then even out the rice. Place the chicken, one piece on each section of the pan.
7. Add the red pepper and the peas. Finally pour the stock carefully with a soup ladle, don't pour it all at once and do not mix it anymore. You must stay beside the paella while it cooks to make sure it won't get too dry, add more stock if needed, you might not use it all so can always freeze it. It takes around 20 minutes for the rice to cook. Meanwhile, grab yourself some sangria and enjoy the cooking!
