Description

Cuban rice, named for the fried bananas served on the side, is loved in Spain as much for its pretty colours as for the sweet-salty flavours. Leftover paella makes a particularly good version.

Method

Step 1 of 4

Heat the rice through in a low oven or microwave and transfer to a warm serving dish.

Step 2 of 4

Heat the oil in a large frying pan. Crack the eggs in and fry sunny-side up. Remove with a slotted spoon, arrange on top of the rice, and keep warm.

Step 3 of 4

In the same pan, fry the bananas just enough to caramelize them a little. Remove and arrange them with the eggs.

Step 4 of 4

Meanwhile, liquidize the tomatoes, onion, and garlic with the chilli, if using. Pour the tomato mix into the same frying pan and bubble up for 1-2 minutes to concentrate the juices and develop the flavours. Serve the rice with its toppings, and the tomato sauce on the side.
