Here is my oven baked paella which requires no stirring on the hob, therefore making it super easy to cook! I have included Squid 🦑 in my recipe, but you can replace that with extra prawns if you aren’t keen.
10 year old Charlie said “what is that lovely smell?” 😳 while it was cooking and Toby demolished his portion in seconds flat.
An all round winner I’d say.

In a pan bring the tomatoes, stock, saffron and paprika to the boil. Now add the hot liquid to the rice season generously and carefully stir. Return to the oven for 20 minutes. Now add the prawns, squid and peas, stir and return to the oven for 10 minutes.
