Alaska Paella

Directions

[Saffron gives this dish its traditional Paella coloring. It is however, expensive. Turmeric can be used as a substitute.]

Drain the can of salmon, reserving the juice. Set aside.

Heat the oil in a large pan and cook the garlic, onion and leek for 5 minutes. Stir in the rice, prawns, mussels, salmon juice, stock, lemon juice and saffron. Mix well, bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes or until the liquid is almost completely absorbed by the rice.

Stir the tomatoes into the rice along with the salmon, broken into large flakes.

Pile into a serving dish and decorate with the whole prawns and lemon slices. Serve immediately.
