Directions

  1. To prepare the international rice dish, we will first chop the mushrooms, peppers, and onion into julienne strips, and the apples into flower-shaped slices. ≈ 8 min
  2. Once the ingredients have been chopped and prepared, we place the rice, water, salt, an onion, and a small amount of oil paint in a pot and cook for 20 minutes.
  3. While you’re doing that, prepare the tomato sauce by sautéing the chopped onions, 4 cloves of garlic, salt, and a little oil in a pan for 15 minutes.
  4. Next, combine everything with the tomatoes. ≈ 4 min
  5. Let the mixture simmer in the pan for 5 to 10 minutes, and you will then have the sauce ready.
  6. Next, once the rice has been cooking for 20 minutes, it is added to a paella with oil, salt, and pepper, which are mixed in for about 10 minutes.
  7. Next, add the mushrooms, tuna, and 2 cloves of garlic, and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
  8. Finally, we add the saffron, mix everything together, and the dish is ready to be enjoyed. ≈ 3 min
