Preparation steps

1.

Heat the oven to 200°C / 400°F.

2.

Place the tomatoes in a roasting pan or baking dish in a single layer. Drizzle lightly with olive oil and roast for 15-20 minutes until just tender, but still holding their shape.

3.
Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a frying pan and cook the onion and garlic for 3-4 minutes until softened. Stir in the rice, until coated in the oil.
4.

Put the saffron, tomato puree and stock in a pan and bring to a simmer, stirring. Simmer gently until the roasted tomatoes are ready. Stir in the rice mixture and season to taste with salt and pepper.

5.

Gently stir the hot rice and stock mixture into the tomatoes. Cover tightly with foil and cook for 20-30 minutes until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed.

6.
Spoon into warm serving bowls and sprinkle with the cheese. Garnish with basil.

Do you add the rice at 3 or 4?
Cyndy from EAT SMARTER's picture
Thanks for your question. I hope this will clarify: In step 3 you saute the rice with the onion and garlic. In step 4 you add the sauteed rice to the saffron, tomato puree, and stock mixture pan. In step 5 you add the roasted tomatoes to the rice/stock pan then cover and complete the cooking. Let us know if you have any other questions. Happy cooking!
