Paella with prawns and mussels

Prawn paella with mussels, there is nothing better than enjoying a good paella. Sometimes it is not necessary to have many ingredients but they must be of good quality to prepare a good paella.

With only some mussels, prawns and a few slices of squid I prepared this paella and I stay very good, on other occasions I put a lot of things on it and it doesn't come out so good. Rice is a dish that is very popular in all ways and with different ingredients it is a great dish.

A simple dish to prepare. Let's go with the recipe.
