  • 150 g flat green beans
  • 100 g garrofon (large white bean)
  • 1 ripe tomato, grated
  • 100 g extra virgin olive oil
  • 800 g chicken stock
  • 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
  • A few saffron threads

Step-by-step

Choose your robot:
  1. Pour the oil into the mixing bowl and brown the chicken and rabbit 8 min/Varoma/reverse/spoon speed.
  2. Remove the meat with the spatula and set aside in a bowl.
  3. Put the green beans and garrofon in the mixing bowl and saute 5 min/Varoma/spoon speed.
  4. Add the grated tomato and paprika and saute 3 min/100C/spoon speed so the paprika does not burn.
  5. Add the reserved meat, the stock, the saffron and the salt again.
  6. Set 10 min/100C/reverse/spoon speed to get the stock started.
  7. Add the rice through the lid hole and set 16 min/100C/reverse/spoon speed without the measuring cup.
  8. Pour everything into a paella pan or wide dish and spread the rice evenly.
  9. Place the sprig of rosemary on top and let rest 5 min covered with a cloth.
  10. Remove the rosemary and serve directly in the paella pan.

Tips

  • The final rest is key for the grain to stay loose and dry.
  • If you like socarrat, raise the heat of the paella pan 1 min at the end.
  • Use homemade chicken stock for a more authentic flavor.
