Seafood Risotto
It is not at all easy where I live to find good quality seafood, thus the other day, when I came along a frozen pack of good-looking seafood-variation “designed” for risotto, I could not resist. Then I only needed some saffron and a nice paella recipe to serve as a guideline, and voilá!

3. Add the seafood and cook for a while
4. Add the green beans (I used frozen)

6. Pour 2 cups of broth on the rice, add salt, pepper and the saffron and stir it, let it cook (covered) until the rice has suck up all the broth and is tender.

It did not look as fancy as a “real” Spanish paella like that of my Mr’s mom, however it was still very yummy 🙂

That looks so pretty! We don’t have a shortage of good sea-food here – I really should cook with fish more!
Pretty and really simple! Fish is gooood 🙂
