| Spanish rice in the oven |
After all this time, I wanted to cook it again and never had the chance, till a couple of weeks ago when I took of my pantry all my treasures from Spain and created my own version that I really need to share with you. I hope you will try it because it is really yummy and will be perfect for a family lunch or dinner!

| Arroz al horno |
1/ Clean and slice the courgette and bell pepper roughly. Cut the bacon in pieces. Cut the different sausages in 3cm thick slices.
2/ Prepare a little more than 1 liter of a warm vegetables stock. Add salt, pepper, saffron and turmeric, mix.
3/ Fry for a couple of minutes the bacon dices in a pan at medium heat and when they start to get golden, and then fry the sausages for 5 minutes. Take it off the heat and reserve.
4/ In a large oven tray, spread evenly the different ingredients: bacon, sausages, vegetables, the dry rice and in the middle the whole garlic bulb.
5/ Add slowly the warm stock in order to cover all the ingredients. Place in the oven for 25 minutes to 30 minutes. After
this time, the rice will have soaked the whole stock and your dish is ready!
6/ Take it out of the oven, cover with a cotton clothes for 5 minutes before serving. The chorizo and sausages gave all its flavor to the rice and veggies and the garlic will slightly and subtly perfumed the whole dish and if you want a stronger taste, you can just dig into the bulb for the confited garlic puree! The turmeric and saffron will give its final touch for a refined rice dish! It is just a perfect dish for a long table of
friends or family!
