• Trick: We have used a frozen stew that has peas, broad beans, green beans and carrots, but you can add fresh vegetables and remove the ones you don’t like or add others that you like better.
• Add the rice and a teaspoon of sweet paprika. Stir for 1 minute. Set aside the soffit and reserve.
• To make the vegetable broth, we have recycled the hard part of the asparagus, the stems of the young garlic sprouts, the green part of the leeks and some pieces of broccoli that had turned yellow. Put everything in a pot with water and cook it for 30 minutes.
• Once cooked, check that it is well salted and strain it. Add it to the rice along with a teaspoon of turmeric. Stir and cook for 20 minutes, the first 10 minutes over high heat and the last 10 over low heat.
