How to make Vegetable Paella:
- Cut the vegetables into pieces of about 4 or 5 cm. Heat the oil in the paella until it begins to boil for the first time.
- Add the very finely chopped onion, when it begins to soften, add the rest of the vegetables and over a very low heat for 15 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Trick: It is important to boil the vegetables well, over low heat. The vegetables if they are fresh better, never by canned vegetables.
- After this time, add the grated tomato to the sauce and continue cooking for another 5 minutes. Then, add the paprika and a minute later, the rice and the coloring.
- Sauté everything together for a minute and then add the vegetable broth or water. Remember that it should always be twice as liquid as rice. Also add the finely chopped garlic and cook over high heat for 15 or 20 minutes.
- Tip: We must take into account calculating the water, since it is the high water content of the vegetables, water that will be released during the cooking of the rice.
- After this time you can serve the vegetable paella and enjoy. Garnish the plate with some lemon wedges and bon appetite!
