INGREDIENTS

300 grams of squid
10 large shrimp
1 tsp. pimenton (sweet red pepper)
300 grams olive oil
8 tsp. mashed tomato
saffron
600 grams rice
2-3 garlic slices
fish broth (between twice and three times the amount of rice)

INSTRUCTIONS

Peel the shrimp, saving the heads. Cut squid into small square pieces. Heat oil in large pan and fry shrimp heads, pressing on them with spoon. Remove heads and add squid. Once squid has goldened, add 1-2 cloves of chopped garlic. Without letting these golden, add tomato, then pimenton. Add rice and stir for three to five minutes, until the rice sounds like sand! Add the fish broth, saffron, and salt to taste. After 8-10 minutes, add another chopped garlic clove and the peeled shrimp. Let cook for 10-15 minutes on low heat.
