We all understand that, in order to really be healthy and balanced, nutritious and balanced diets are important as are good amounts of exercise. The sad thing is that, at the end of the day, we don’t always have the time or energy required for a healthy lifestyle. When our work day is finished, most people do not want to go to the gym. We want a tasty, greasy burger, not an equally tasty salad (unless we’re vegetarians). The good news is that making wise decisions doesn’t have to be a pain. If you are conscientious you’ll get all of the activity and healthy food choices you need. Here are some very simple ways to get healthy.
Walk up the stairs. Instead of choosing the elevator, climb the stairs to your floor. While this will be hard to do if you live on or if your job is on a seriously high level floor in a skyscraper, taking the stairs to a home or office on, say, the fifth floor is completely do-able. Even if you do live or work on one of the upper floors, you can still get off of the elevator first and climb up the stairs the rest of the way. Most people will decide to be sluggish and take an elevator instead of choosing exercise on the stairs. That just one flight of stairs—when taken a several times a day—can be just the added boost that your system needs.
There are plenty of things you can do to become healthy. An expensive gym membership and very restrictive diets are not the only way to do it. It is the little things you choose day after day that really help you with weight loss and becoming healthy. Make sensible choices every day is a great start. Trying to get in as much physical exercise as possible is another. Remember: being healthy and balanced isn’t just about reducing your weight. It has more to do with making your body as powerful as it can be.
We hope you got benefit from reading it, now let’s go back to seafood paella recipe. To cook seafood paella you only need 20 ingredients and 11 steps. Here is how you achieve that.
The ingredients needed to make Seafood Paella:
- Get chicken stock or 1 stock cube with 2 cups of boiling water
- Get dry white wine
- Use smoked paprika
- Provide saffron threads, crumbled
- Get each salt and pepper
- Get olive oil
- Provide onion, finely chopped
- Provide red bell pepper, finely chopped
- Use garlic, finely chopped
- You need chorizo sausages, sliced into thin half-moons
- Take Italian Arborio rice
- Prepare diced tomatoes
- Use tomatoes, quartered
- You need Edamame beans (or peas)
- Take prawn tails, cleaned (I deep fried the heads for fun)
- Prepare half mussels
- You need calamari steak cut in strips
- Provide chopped parsley, for garnish
- Use lemons quartered, for garnish
- You need chilies chopped, for garnish
Steps to make Seafood Paella:
- Prep all ingredients before your guests arrive. Assemble them next to the braai until you are ready.
- In a jug, mix together the wine and stock. Add the saffron and salt. Let the flavours marry for as long as possible.
- When the braai is ready, place a big paella pan on the grid. Heat the olive oil in that pan. Add the onion and red pepper and cook it until the onion is translucent. Stir in the garlic and chorizo and cook until fragrant.
- Add the rice. Cook, stirring for 5 minutes until the rice is toasted and coated in the oil, onion and pepper mix.
- Stir in the stock, tomatoes, peas and paprika. Taste for seasoning and add more salt, if necessary.
- Spread the rice evenly over the bottom of the pan. Cover the pan with foil and simmer the rice without stirring for 15 minutes, or until the rice absorbs most of the liquid. It's important not to stir the rice, even though you may want to. You want to create a crust at the bottom. If it starts to look too dry, add some water/wine, but not too much and DON'T stir.
- Add the seafood, nestle it nicely into the rice. Cover with foil and let the seafood and rice cook. This should take about 10 minutes.
- Remove the foil, check that the liquid is absorbed, that everything is cooked and adjust the seasoning, if necessary.
- Finally, check to see if the elusive 'socarrat' was created. This is the golden brown crust at the bottom of the pan. If you can, wait to see if you can create the crust, if not - better luck next time…
- Sprinkle with parsley and bring the whole pan to the table. Serve with lemons, chilli, more parsley and a lot more wine.
