- Add the white onion, scraping the bottom of the pot while stirring. Cook for about 2-3 minutes. Add the roasted garlic and saute for 1 minute. Add the canned crushed tomatoes. Stir and cook for 1 to 2 minutes.
- Add the bell pepper and sauté for about 1 to 2 minutes.
- Add in the dried thyme, dried oregano, salt, and freshly ground pepper.

Seafood
- Using your Miele Tepan Yaki Grill, set the temperature to high.
- Bring a pot of water to a boil using your Miele Hob.
- Season the salmon and prawns with salt and freshly ground pepper.
- Add a good amount of salt in the boiling water and blanch the mussels until they have opened. Discard any that remain closed. Set aside a cup of the blanching water for the paella rice.
- Add a bit of olive oil on the Miele Tepan Yaki Grill and sear the salmon, skin side down.
- Cook until the sides of the salmon are firm but still tender. Cook for approximately 5 to 7 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish.
- Next, cook prawns and sear each side for about 2 to 3 minutes, depending on the thickness.
- Top your paella rice with the seafood.
