How to make Prawn Paella Recipe:
For a taste of seaside Spain try this super delicious and simple Paella Recipe. This is a great dinner recipe, also a winner at parties. I have used Risotto rice for this, a little tip, buy a packet of good quality Risotto rice, and it will last months. The rice is slightly expensive but considering how well it lasts I think it makes sense to buy and keep a packet in the pantry. Especially for days when you don’t know what to cook but you know you wanna eat something really really nice without much effort.
