  4. Add the grated tomato and the paprika and saute 3 min/100C/spoon speed.
  5. Pour in the brandy and set 2 min/Varoma/reverse/spoon speed without the measuring cup to flambe.
  6. Add the stock, the saffron and the salt and set 8 min/100C/reverse/spoon speed.
  7. Add the rice through the lid hole and set 13 min/100C/reverse/spoon speed without the measuring cup.
  8. Add the lobster medallions and set 5 min/100C/reverse/spoon speed.
  9. The rice should stay brothy and soupy, not dry.
  10. Serve right away in a deep dish because the rice keeps absorbing broth.

Tips

  • Serve right away because the brothy rice keeps soaking up liquid.
  • The lobster coral adds an intense flavor to the sofrito.
  • Calculate a little more broth than for a dry rice.
