This is a quick and easy recipe of Djerbian rice. It is somewhat similar in its ingredients to the famous Spanish PAELLA. This is my take on it:
1. In a bowl add:
1/2 cup of rice
5 cups of chopped parsley
1 cup of green peas
200 grams chopped chicken (I used chicken breast)
200 grams shrimp (cleaned)
200 squid (cut)
1 tbsp of tomato paste
1/2 tbsp of harissa (Tunisian hot chili paste, can be replaced with paprika)
2 tsp of turmeric
1 tsp of garlic paste
1 tsp of garlic powder
1 tsp of onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste
Mix everything together then put it in a steamer and steam covered for about 30 - 45 mins until the rice is cooked. Make sure you gently mix the rice while steaming to ensure even cooking. Serve it warm and Enjoy!
