Vegan Spanish Paella

Taken from https://simpleveganblog.com/vegan-spanish-paella/. For a healthier version, this recipe uses basmati rather than the regular short-grain rice.

Ingredients §  2 Tbsp olive oil §  4 cloves of garlic §  1 medium onion, chopped §  1 red pepper, chopped §  2 tomatoes, chopped §  1 cup frozen artichoke hearts (120 grams) §  1/2 cup frozen green beans (75 grams) §  1/2 cup frozen peas (65 grams) §  1 1/4 cups Basmati rice (240 grams) §  4 cups vegetable stock (1 liter) §  2 tsp turmeric powder §  1 tsp sweet paprika §  Salt and black pepper to taste (optional)

Steps 1.    Heat the oil in a pan over a medium heat and when it’s hot, add the garlic, onion, and red pepper. Cook until golden brown. 2.    Add the chopped tomatoes and cook for another 5 or 10 minutes. 3.    Add the frozen veggies and cook 5 minutes more. 4.    Add the rice and cook until it begins to be translucent. Pour the vegetable broth (hot), add the turmeric powder, the sweet paprika, and salt and black pepper to taste. 5.    Stir the paella until all the ingredients are mixed and cook over medium or medium high heat for 15 or 20 minutes or until the rice is cooked. Add more vegetable broth if the rice is hard and dry. 6.    Let the paella stand (covered) for at least 5 or 10 minutes.
