Super Simple Paella

1 tbsp olive oil

1 medium onion (diced)

1 red pepper (diced)

2 garlic cloves (crushed)

120g green beans (trimmed and halved)

150g tinned cannellini beans

1&1/2 tsp smoked paprika

1tsp ground turmeric

A Pinch of chilli flakes (optional)

200g short grain rice (I used arborio)

500ml vegan stock

160g marinated artichoke hearts

50g green olives

Black pepper

Optional to serve, freshly squeezed lemon juice and flat leaf parsley

Heat the oil in a frying pan, add the onion and red pepper and cook over a medium heat for 2 minutes or so. The onion should be soft but not brown. Add the garlic and green beans and cook for another 2 minutes.

Add the cannellini beans, smoked paprika and turmeric, mix well to coat and lower the heat. Pour in the rice, stock, season (plus optional chilli flakes) and mix well.

Place the artichokes and olives on top of the mixture, cover and simmer for 30 Minutes or until the rice is fully cooked.

Serve with optional freshly squeezed lemon juice and parsley
