- 25.5Cm frying pan with a lid.
- Begin by bringing a pan 570ml of water to simmering point.
- If using raw prawns drop them into the water for 3 min.
- Remove them with a draining spoon reserving the cooking liquid. (Cooked prawns won't need this precooking.)
- Set aside two whole prawns and shell the rest.
- To do this just remove the heads by giving them a sharp tug then simply peel off the rest that comes away very easily but leave the tails intact as this makes them look nicer. Remove the black vein from the back of each prawn that will come away easily using the point of a sharp knife.
- Place the shells in the pan of water and simmer for 30 min without a lid to make a nice prawn flavoured stock then drain and throw away the shells.
- Pour the warm stock into a jug and cover with a plate to keep hot.
- Heat the frying pan over a high heat and brown the pcs of chorizo sausage without adding any fat then remove them from the pan to a plate and set aside.
- Add in a Tbsp. of the oil and when its warm fry the onions for 2 to 3 min to brown them a little at the edges then return the chorizo to the pan and add in the garlic celery chilli and sliced pepper.
- Continue to fry for 4 to 5 min until the celery and pepper are also softened and lightly tinged brown at the edges adding a little more oil if you need to.
- Stir in the rice to get a good coating of oil then measure out 340ml of the reserved stock and add in the tabasco to it.
- Add in the minced tomatoes and bay leaf to the pan then pour in the stock.
- Season with salt and freshly milled black pepper give it all one stir and push the rice down into the liquid.
- Turn the heat to low put a lid on and let is barely simmer for 20 min.
- Check the rice is cooked and return the shelled and the two reserved shell on prawns to the pan adding a little more stock if necessary: Cover with a lid for 5 more min then serve garnished with the minced parsley and spring onions.
- This is one of the easiest and nicest rice dishes and its origins are in the traditional Cajun cooking ofAmerica. Its very easy to adapt it to whatever you have handy fish chicken or possibly even pork.
