Fry the garlic, onion and pepper in a large pot. Add pepper, salt, bay leaf, rice and stir for a couple of minutes.

The water will evaporate, you should never let it dry. Try that there is always a finger over the rice (remember that the dish should be smooth). To do this, you are going to use the broth mentioned above, and if it is finished, use hot water.

When the rice is about 3/4 cooking put the peas, a few minutes later the prawns , and finally the small chopped parsley.

This last part does not have a specific time and it depends on you. You should constantly try the rice, check that it is always smooth but not that it is pure water, and correct the salt so that it does not remain tasteless. When you feel that the rice is ready for your taste, it is indeed ready.Easy recipe that you can make at home.Add pepper, salt, bay leaf, rice and stir for a couple of minutes.
