1. Video tutorial: Making stock

1. Heat the oil in a deep frying pan, then soften the leek for 5 mins without browning. Add the chorizo and fry until it releases its oils. Stir in the turmeric and rice until coated by the oils, then pour in the stock. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 15 mins, stirring occasionally.
2. Tip in the peas and cook for 5 mins, then stir in the seafood to heat through for a final 1-2 mins cooking or until rice is cooked. Check for seasoning and serve immediately with lemon wedges.

Chorizo sausage

Chorizo sausage comes from Spain and has a smoked paprika flavour. You can use a handful of pork or chicken instead - cook for 5 mins with 1 tsp smoked paprika before adding the rice.

  Absolutely gorgeous....used mussles, chorizo and prawns. I used twice the amount of stock as for some reason it evaporated too quickly. A firm favourite now!

  Gorgeous recipe. Only thing I'd change next time is to use about half the amount of peas, otherwise it's a bit overwhelming. I also used leeks and onions rather than just the one. So easy to make.
