How to make Valencian baked rice:
First, we heat the oven up and down to 200ºC. Next, we salt the rib and the bacon. Next, we put a casserole on the fire with a little oil and when it is hot, we add the rib and let it brown. When it is half browned, add the bacon and let everything brown together. Finally, when it is cooked, we will remove the ingredients and reserve them.
Well, in this step, we must peel the potatoes and cut them into half-cm slices. We brown the potatoes on both sides in the same pan where we have browned the meat and with the same oil. In about 5 minutes, they will be ready. If oil is needed, we will add a little more. We take out and reserve.
Next, we put the meat again, add the cooked chickpeas and the head of garlic. We also include it in the casserole, but we put it aside so that it takes color. Next, we add the rice and mix everything well. Finally, we add the teaspoon of sweet paprika and let it cook for a few minutes. Add a little salt.
