Method of preparation

For the herb oil:
Defoliate the herbs. In a blender, add the oil, leaves and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Tap for 1 minute and that's it!

For the dish:

Cut the tomato into cubes. Season the seafood with salt and set aside.

In a saucepan over medium heat, add a drizzle of olive oil and sauté the chopped onion for about 1 minute or until lightly browned.

Add the rice and 1 liter of water. Add the salt and cook over medium heat for about 30 minutes, with the pan half open or until there is no more water.

Heat a skillet over high heat and add the olive oil and garlic. Brown for 20 seconds and then add the seafood, brown for 2 minutes.

Separate half of the fish and set aside. Add the rice and half of the tomatoes and the rest of the seafood remaining in the pan. Gently mix until all ingredients are blended well.

Put the rice on a plate and arrange the rest of the seafood and the tomato pulp on top.

Now that we've described the proportions in the Culinary Measure Converter, preparing that complicated-looking dish has certainly become a much easier task.
