Recipe Instructions

[Saffron gives this dish its traditional Paella coloring. It is however, expensive. Turmeric can be used as a substitute.] Drain the can of salmon, reserving the juice. Set aside.

Heat the oil in a large pan and cook the garlic, onion and leek for 5 minutes. Stir in the rice, prawns, mussels, salmon juice, stock, lemon juice and saffron. Mix well, bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the liquid is almost completely absorbed by the rice.

Stir the tomatoes into the rice along with the salmon, broken into large flakes.

Pile into a serving dish and decorate with the whole prawns and lemon slices. Serve immediately.
