Seafood Rice A La Paella

Seafood Rice A La Paella
I’ve been craving for paella for quite some time already and since I don’t have saffron, I once again explored my creativity just to satisfy my palate. Since I have frozen mixed seafoods ready, I tried my best to make it look and somehow taste like real paella. My version is very easy, all I did was mixed everything together.
INGREDIENTS:
5 cups steam-cooked rice, whatever kind you prefer
2 tbsp. olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
250g mixed seafoods, mine is frozen
2 cups mixed vegetables (corn, peas, carrots) – add more if you like
2 tbsp. Kikkoman soy sauce
2-3 tbsp oyster sauce
2 tbsp tomato puree
2 egss, hard boiled
1/2 tbsp. dried parsley, fresh can also be used

salt and pepper to taste

METHOD:
1. Bring the saucepan half filled with water and the mixed seafoods to a boil and let cook. Add a dash of salt and pepper. Drain. – I do this because some frozen seafoods are so chewy when not thoroughly cooked.

2. Use a huge pan to have a good space for mixing, use wok if you have. Heat the oil and sauté the onion until translucent. Add in the garlic and sauté for a few seconds not letting the garlic burn. Tip in the drained mixed seafoods and mix well with the onion and garlic. Cook for about 2-3 minutes. Add in the mixed vegetables and cook for another minute.

3. Pour in the Kikkoman soy sauce, oyster sauce and tomato puree. Simmer for about a minute to seal the taste. Now, it’s time to add in the rice. Continue mixing until the mixture is evely distributed with the rice. Spinkle the parsley and mix.

4. Arrange the hard boiled eggs the same way as the picture and sprinkle with a little more parsley to garnish.

Now, you have seafood rice a la paella. Happy Home-Cooking! =)
