Preparation

In a large shallow pan heat oil and add onion and garlic. Cook until starting to soften. Add the gammon and sausage, continue to cook until browned.

Add the paprika and the rice, cook for 1-2 minutes.

Add the saffron plus water and about half of the stock. Stir well, add pepper and beans. Bring to the boil and allow to simmer for about 20 minutes. Add more stock during the cooking as it becomes absorbed, stir and then leave to absorb all the flavours.

The next recipe one of our own:

Huevos Rancheros

Serves 4
Cooking time 20mins

Recipe ingredients

500g Bacon
2 Avocadoes
500g Cherry tomatoes
1 Onion
4 eggs
4 Tortillas
Tomato Puree
1 Tin of Black Eyed Beans
200g Grated cheese
1 Lime

Preparation

Make the salsa by chopping the tomatoes, peeling and dicing the onion and avocadoes and adding to a bowl with the juice of one lime. Mix well and set aside.

Fry the bacon in a dry non stick pan (Good bacon shouldn't need any fat). Whilst the bacon is cooking spread the tortillas with tomato puree like a pizza base, sprinkle with black eye beans and cheese and place under the grill until the cheese bubbles.


Add the bacon to the tortilla and fry the eggs in the bacon fat, Top the tortillas with salsa and the fried eggs and serve.
