Paella Fried Rice

With a fusion of Spanish and Asian Flavors, this stunning fried rice is a recipe that’s impressive and fun for celebration dinners.

Chorizo is a type of sausage that originates from Spain and Portugal. Unlike other sausage varieties you might be used to, chorizo has a red color due to its heavy paprika flavoring. Chorizo can either be spicy or sweet depending on the variety.

Cured chorizo is aged for several weeks meaning that it can be eaten without cooking. This is unlike Mexican chorizo which is sold raw and must be cooked before eating.

Tomato Puree: If you are looking for a tomato paste substitution, tomato puree is most likely your best bet. Although not quite as thick or sweet as tomato puree, you can simply increase the measurements to make up for any lost flavor.

Tomato Sauce: Similar to tomato puree, tomato sauce isn’t as thick or sweet as tomato paste, however you can replicate the flavor better by mixing in some sugar.

Ketchup: With a similar thick texture to tomato paste but with a sweeter, tangier taste, ketchup is a great substitution for tomato paste in small doses. That said, if you are preparing another recipe which requires a lot of tomato paste, ketchup may not be the best option.
