INSTRUCTIONS
Saute onion and bell pepper in margarine until translucent. Add water (and
some chicken stock) and a hint of garlic. Add celery, parsley, salt and
MSG. (Water that comes out of seafood will make another 1/2 cup of liquid.)
Add mushrooms and clams; cover and bring to boil over medium-high heat.
When water comes to rolling boil, put in rice and bring back to LOWEST boil
possible. Add saffron; cover pot and don't touch it for 15 minutes. Rice
should be cooked, but not split at ends yet --> a little on the dry side.
Dump in all the seafood and stir thoroughly. Bring back to a simmer; cover
and cook 10 minutes. Might need to cook a little longer with the top off if
the shrimp exude a lot of liquid. Check seasonings; can add more butter or
pepper.
Mom's notes:
* Might want to add oysters, too. Don't drain the clams!
* If you use canned mushrooms instead of fresh, add them when you put in
the seafood.
