BE PART OF THE DRIVE FOR POSITIVE CHANGE

As the UK’s leading educational anti-racism charity, we are delighted to announce the official launch of our Education Hub. Here you will find free access to our educational resources, and step-by-step, guided lessons and activities so that you can promote anti-racism among your learners.

While Show Racism the Red Card delivers training directly to more than 50,000 individuals per year, we also understand that there is a huge benefit to schools and other educational settings having access to our resources, so that you and your learners can be part of the discussion for driving positive change.

THIS stunning photograph was taken by Anselm Gallagher from Hertfordshire.

Anselm says: “In the 1990s, I worked as a freelance photographer before returning to teaching. Over 20 years later, I am semiretired, doing some supply work and I have resurrected my passion for photography.

Method

1. Stir the saffron strands into the stock and set aside to infuse while you prepare the rest of the paella.

2. Pour 1 tbsp of oil into a pan, add the chopped onion and garlic and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until softened and just starting to colour.

3. Stir in the pepper and paprika with the remaining oil and stir-fry for a further 1-2 minutes. The pan should have lots of crispy, brown bits on the bottom, which will all add flavour.

4. With the heat still quite high, stir in the rice so it is well coated in the oil, then pour in the saffron-infused stock, plus 450ml of boiling water, scraping up the sticky brown bits from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon.

5. Add the chopped tomatoes, then cover the pan and cook on a medium heat for 10 minutes, stirring once or twice.

6. Scatter the peas and prawns over the top, cover again and continue to cook for a further 5-10 minutes, or until the rice is just cooked

Spanish paella serves 2-3 and most of the liquid has been absorbed.

7. Remove the pan from the heat and leave to rest for 5 minutes.

8. Stir a few times to mix the ingredients, season to taste and scatter the chopped flatleaf parsley.

9. Serve with lemon wedges and an extra drizzle of oil if you like.
