is this similar to paella?? what rice did you use? and I take it you can add the meat you want too have in it? xx

[sortedfood]

@mojo5141 very similar principle... paella is a spanish tradition this is from central america. It was an American long grain rice.

i don't have any turmeric on hand...what do i do? can i leave it out?

[sortedfood]

@simplychic1 It will take out some of the colour, but it won't be the end of the world!

[sortedfood]

@scardillyosis It would work perfectly! Also check out beef and ale stew or lamb curry!!

Ok Ben, I'm sorry I'm often critical but I made this following the measurements on Sorted website and it calls for 800 ml chicken stock + the tomatoes. Now, clearly that is incorrect because just looking at my pot, I promptly added more rice (100g) but still ended up with a glop. In the video, you clearly put 500 ml stock, not 800 ml. It saddens me cause I'm sure some ppl were sad to fail at such a simple recipe. Sorry again for the criticism - love you guys! :)

@mortadelletube Thanks for your message and it's great to see you're trying the recipes! I can only apologise... you're absolutely right... the stock measurement on the site was a typo it should have been 500ml. I've corrected it now... thanks! Glad to hear you were able to adapt the recipe to add more rice though. Thanks again for letting us know! :D

@HannahvsHomework Can do if you like!

[katherineelee96]

should you de-shell the prawns/shrimp before you throw them in?

[hatorigirl1202]

@jackrabbit08 It's not a dialect difference at all. It's the use of America to describe the US that's causing the issue. South America is a continent. With several separate countries in it. What he means is southern United States. The point is that a Brazilian or an Argentinian would be about as likely to know jambalaya as someone from Kenya, or Germany. When America is used with no qualifiers then it can refer to the country, but adding North or South makes it about the continents

@mojo5141 You just use white rice and typically chicken or sausage is used but you could add whatever you like

[Psycolotl]

I can't be the only one that laughed when they saw the sausage..

[Arrowhead729]

I like how you Brits say risotto. It's so funny, but cool!!

@Jespahhh that is the most accurate description of his wardrobe I’ve heard yet

I liked Alex at this time before he dressed like a blind lesbian
