Method
- In a wide casserole or deep paella pan, heat a little oil and brown the ribs until they are well seared. Remove them and set aside.
- In the same oil, sauté the onion, pepper and garlic, all finely chopped.
- Add the grated tomato and white wine and let it reduce for about 4 minutes, until it thickens.
- Incorporate the paprika and mix quickly so it does not burn.
- Return the ribs to the casserole and add the bay leaf, rosemary and hot broth.
- Cover and cook over medium heat for 20 minutes so the meat releases its flavor.
- Adjust the salt and add the rice along with the saffron.
- Cook uncovered over medium-high heat for the first 8 minutes and then over medium-low heat for about 10 more minutes, stirring occasionally to make it creamy.
- Turn off the heat, cover the casserole and let it rest for 2 minutes.
- Before serving, sprinkle the chopped fresh cilantro on top.
