  1. Step 1: Boil the kettle for the later measured rice water. Peel and slice the onion (1), wash and deseed both peppers (1) and slice them, slice the chorizo (50 g) and peel and crush both garlic cloves (2). In a non-stick frying or shallow pan with a lid, heat all the olive oil (1 tbsp) and fry all these prepared ingredients over high heat for three minutes, stirring.

  3. Step 3: Uncover and stir; the rice should be almost tender.

Cook for one further minute as a guide, continuing until the prawns are pink and opaque throughout at 63 °C /145 °F and the rice is tender. Serve immediately as four portions.
