Spanish seafood rice (paella)

Ingredients
Seafood Paella
1 1/2 cup Arboria rice (Spanish rice)
Olive oil
10 shrimp
5 squid (with tentacles)
1/2 large red onion
1 tomato
1/2 red bell pepper/capsicum
1 teaspoon chilli garlic sauce
2 cups fish stock (more if necessary)
1 cup dry wine (I used Chardonnay)
salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoon saffron
1/4 teaspoon brown sugar
1 cup green peas
Chopped cilantro for garnish
1 teaspoon lime juice
1/2 teaspoon Garam masala (optional)

Step 1: Saute Chilli sauce in olive oil. Add the veggies and let them cook slightly.

Step 2: Add the rice and squid and stir.

Step 3: Add the fish stock and wine. Add saffron, salt, pepper and lime juice. I added a little bit of garam masala but you do not have to.

 Step 4: Add the shrimp, green peas and cilantro.  Let it cook on a low flame until the rice is done.
Sprinkle olive oil on top and serve hot.
