A mi I. el arroz le chifla. No sabría decir qué receta es su favorita. Desde una "paella dominguera" hasta el "arroz a banda", pasando por un "arroz con bogavante" o simplemente un "arroz blanco".
My I. loves rice. I wouldn´t be able to say which recipe is his favourite. From a "Sunday paella", going through "Arroz a banda" , not forgetting "arroz con bogavante" (Rice with lobster), or just our simply "white rice" that we eat with a fried egg on top and tomato sauce.
Hoy, le he preparado un arroz con verduras que voy a poner aquí. ¡Le encanta!.
Today, I´ve made rice with veggies and I´m going to post it. He loves it!.
*In the Basque country, we cook simply. We rarely use spices and as in this dish, vegetables are cooked as they are, with a bit of virgin olive oil and salt and fried garlic to finish.
The type of rice I´ve used, it´s a Spanish medium grain rice, suitable for rice puddings, soups and daily rices like the one I´m cooking today. For paellas, our preference is Calasparra rice, which is a short grain rice that has been grown for centuries, around the town of Calasparra in the Murcia region of southeast Spain.
Después de esta pequeña aclaración para los que me leen en Inglés, empiezo con la receta.
After this small note for the ones who read me in English, I´ll start posting the recipe.
ARROZ CON VERDURAS - RICE WITH VEGETABLES
INGREDIENTES PARA 1 PERSONA
1 cebolleta
1 puerro
1 zanahoria
1 diente de ajo
1 pimiento morrón (previamente asado, si no, lo usaremos en crudo y muy picado)
3 hojas de lechuga
1 taza y media de arroz ( medida de taza de café)
4 tazas ( medida de taza de café) de caldo de verduras
Sal
Aceite de oliva
INGREDIENTS - SERVES 1
1 spring onion
1 leek
1 carrot
1 clove of garlic
1 red bell pepper (previously roasted in the oven, if not, use it raw and chopped)
3 lettuce leaves
1 cup and a half of rice (coffee cup to size)
4 cups (coffee cup to size) of vegetable broth
Salt
Virgin olive oil
PROCEDIMIENTO - METHOD
Primeramente, picar todas las verduras y reservar.
First, chop all the vegetables. Set aside.
We´re going to stir fry the onion, the garlic and the leek until soft and tender.(If you´re using raw bell pepper, you´ll have to add it to the pan at this point). Then we will add the carrot and continue cooking a bit more. To finish, I added the lettuce leaves.
Mientras tanto, pelamos el pimiento morrón que hemos asado anteriormente y añadimos unas tiras para decorar.
In the meantime, I´m going to peel the red bell pepper and cut some long strips to put them over the rice to decorate. In the end, it will look like a paella.
Cover it until the 12 minutes are over.
Dejarlo tapado por otros 5 minutos más. Y estará lista para comer.
Switch off the heat and leave it there covered for another 5 minutes and it will be ready for lunch.
My I. ate quite well today. He went back to work very happy.
