Recipe
Ingredients saffron rice
- 2 cups basmati rice
- 200ml of chicken stock (I know I said 350 in the video but I didn't use it all)
- 3 tbsp butter
- 3 shallots, finely diced
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 200mg saffron
- 3 tbsp boiling water
method
1. Start by washing your rice under cold water until the water starts to run clearer. Cover the rice with fresh water and leave to soak for 20 minutes to 6 hours.
2. Drain the soaked rice off. In a large pot of boiling salted water, blanch your rice for 3-4 minutes or just until it starts to cook, you do not want to cook the rice completely at this point.
3. After this, drain the rice.
4. In a large heavy-based pot you have the lid for, heat up your olive oil and sweat off your shallots with a little bit of salt, be careful not to get colour - you just want them to go translucent.
5. In a mortar and pestle, grind your saffron with some rock salt to a powder and add the boiling water. Stir this into your warm chicken stock.
6. Add the rice to the shallots and stir through. Level out the rice and place 5 -7 holes almost to the bottom to let steam escape.
7. Add 3 knobs of butter to the pot and the chicken stock.
8. Cover with a lid that's wrapped in a tea towel and cook on medium-low heat for 25 minutes.
9. After the 25 minutes, turn the heat off but don't lift the lid just yet, let the rice rest for 15 more minutes.
Lobster
- One raw lobster
- 1 clove of garlic
- 1 lemon zested
- 1 tsp celery salt
- 3 tbsp butter
1. Start by cutting your lobster in half right down the middle, if your lobster is still alive make sure you place it in the freezer for 30 minutes to an hour before to make him go 'nie nies'.
2. Preheat your pizza oven to 400°c (if you don't have a pizza oven turn your oven on to full and preheat for at least 30 minutes).
3. Place your split lobster on a tray that's suitable for the pizza oven or normal oven, and evenly spread over the butter followed by the lemon zest, grated garlic and celery salt.
4. Put in the oven for 10-12 minutes turning halfway, you really want to make sure you don't overcook the lobster as they can dry out quickly.
5. Serve the saffron rice in the dish that you cooked the lobster in and garnish with some fresh herbs, lemon and roasted tomatoes. Enjoy! - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
Love that he waits for his wife not to be there for a video titled “the perfect date night meal”
We all know how it ends 😂
Nobody wants to film when you’re practicing your mating ritual
@@RadDadisRad ok weird
@@TriforceofJacob but true
He misses her is all
I really appreciate you advising us what we can substitute things with. Premium ingredients are particularly expensive in today's economical climate, but that doesn't mean you can't make good food! Thanks so much for this lovely content!
I'm really glad you got a sponsorship. Hopefully this will give you even more time for the awesome content!☺️👍🏻
I hope so too!
I agree, but for a second there I thought you were saying Grindr and I spat my Red Bull
@@andy_cooks can you please do some of the recipes that you do shorts on.
I was excited too. So happy to be here on this journey.
I can't stand seafood, however I wanted to watch this for the technique.
Wasn't disappointed to see that this recipe works for chicken.
Thanks Chef.
One of the best things you do is realize the pricing in these high dining meals and how COL is nowadays and what to replace with based on price not availability, true hero
That's exactly what I came here to say. Thanks for being conscientious about that. Not everyone can afford the best ingredients and it's refreshing to see a chef addressing this head on without using sensationalized titles for the videos. Bravo!
I hope these longer vids can take off for you. I know shorts are good for the algorithm, and you're killing it there, but longer videos have alway been my preference on youtube
🙏
I just found Andy’s channel, and I have to say wow this guy is amazing. I love how down to earth he seems to be and he is very thorough with his recipe techniques and quantities. Keep up the good work Andy and I’ll try this recipe soon. Cheers!
Thank you!
What a gorgeous, luxurious dish for a special occasion or date night. Love your instructions for basmati rice... I have never soaked rice or used a tea towel under the lid, but your fluffy rice is a goal..
Thank you so much 😊
One of my favorite things about cooking is that I still learn something new every day.
Discovered you through YT shorts and now I can't get enough of your videos! There is just something different about your cooking videos, maybe the calm and informative style. Huge inspiration, if I could go back in time I would've loved to become a chef but I have to settle for cooking at home 😁. Keep up the awesome work!
I have never like Andy food until recently, now i make his recipes once a week.
Wow, that lobster looks incredible, a little different from the Maine lobster I am used to seeing! Your videos are awesome and your passion for food really comes through. Too bad Babe missed out on this great meal, lol!!
great recipe and thank you for Grindr for the sponsor
I am so glad I stumbled across your channel one day. I am still very much a novice in the kitchen but you have given me the confidence to try new dishes and to expand on the ones that I know! The wife is also quite thankful ;) Cheers!
Thanks! and happy cooking!
Love your channel! Keep up the amazing work!
I think you are one of the most talented chefs in the TH-cam arena.
I just realized you have full videos lol I thought all you had were shorts! That's awesome!
Honest, down to earth and humble 10/10 person
Your so kind!
You're so cool and chill man that's awesome, love how you included other options for those who can't afford expensive ingredients.
That is one BEAUTIFUL meal! I love lobster any way it's prepared!
So good!
What a video. Made me so hungry at 6am UK time. Would love a history video of where you’ve worked Andy across the globe.
Andy, you made me salivate from that great lobster over saffron rice!
I'll try that next time!
Best and God bless!
Mouth was watering watching this one. Being a diver I get sick of crayfish and fell in love with saffron rice when travelling through Iran. Will definitely be trying this one.
Your videos get me excited on a whole nother level for awesome cooking. Appreciate you Andy fantastic work. "Let's get stuck in" 🤘
Respect to you for being so conscientious of the cost of the ingredients

I love this rice more than any food. Thanks for the how to
Quickly became one of my Top 3 TH-cam food channels. You're a relatable professional, if I'm ever in your neck of the woods in the world, I'll stop by 🤣
Thanks !
Clicked sooooo fast for this one. Looking forward to this!
Great videos mate love your work! Keep it up legend 🤙
Thanks a ton!
Hi Andy as a spearfisher I catch a fair bit of lobster (mostly easterns or what is called packhorse in NZ) so I am always glad to get new a recipe. I’ve only recently started to follow but really have been enjoying your channel. 😊
Master Chef - Master Class! I learned so much - thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
This looks amazing, and I will have to try the celery salt with my seafood. I would love to see you do a coconut lobster curry!
Amazing work!
Thanks a lot!
Looks incredible
Looks really good and delicious Chef Andy. I wanna try making it but it's not a cheap recipe.
Andy unfortunately I do not eat any sea food or fish. That being said I can still appreciate the art work of a dish this video showed you prepare! Another phenomenal video mate please keep up the outstanding work. Now for my request, Can you PLEASE make Potato Soup?? I ask every time and I’m hopping eventually you’ll grant my wish!! lol
Brilliant!
Mmmmmm made it loved it!!!!
I absolute love your show. Your lady is so lucky to have you ☺️
Thank you so much!
And he's lucky to have her!
That looks absolutely divine! Notva fan of seafood, but would make an exception for that.
That is incredible
My favorite chef ever
Hi Andy. Food looks great 👍🏾
Thank you 😋
Absolutely fantastic carnt tell you how much I love lobster carnt afford it but I love it
Ime obsessed with Andy’s cooking and the amazing creations he nails every time…he’s absolutely fabulous…..
Magic 🤩🤩
So amazing
Onya bloke, quality vids keep it up🤙
The ingredients are expensive, but people will spend the same amount for a sub-par sit down at a chain restaurant. Priorities!
Can you make any dish from trinidad and tobago please I'm an offshore chef and I totally respect you sir I love the idea you always cook for the wife I also do the same
The cruncly layer at the bottom of well flavoured steamed rice is where its at.
I don’t love lobster…but I’ve never had it this way! Definitely going to try
The best part!
That was a great way to cook the rice, I've learnt something new. I never usually soak the rice but I do par cook it. Well, I boil for about 5-6 minutes. Rinse in cold water until clear, then cook on high to get a rapid boil. Then on low for remaining time. Complicated huh 😆 trying your saffron rice next wk 🙏
That was great to learn. Up till now, I've been adding the saffron (stems and steeped liquid) to the rice in the rice cooker, and it seems to make the rice go a bit soft or mushy. So combining with the saffron stock afterward is something I'm going to try for sure.
I love all your videos..
lovely mate
love it
You should try the South African saffron rice version. Love this video.
Looking good Andy looking good 👍🏽
Thanks 👍
You are fantastic, Chef! Going to ask again - every day until I get it made - Korean Beef Bulgogi bowl for Kate, please Chef!
Wow.
WoW!!!
I from Maine USA , the right time of year they can be around 6.99 lb .
Haven't had saffron rice so long. This is on the list for sure. I think a Maine Lobster is perfect ✌
Just awesome Andy, thanks mate...so beautiful
Glad you enjoyed it
Love your videos!
May I ask that you make Coq Au Van or maybe chicken picatta with pasta?
God damn it. I'm basically drooling at the end of the vid. Now I'm hungry
Im glad Andy put the sponsor logo up...I thought he said Grindr 1st time around hahah
Great content absolutely love your videos...do you have your own cook book out??
Thanks Andy for telling people about cheaper options. With the worlds economics in a downturn. People see some these TH-cam chefs making expensive food options need to follow the example. Thank you good sir !
Very true! thanks
Sweet Lord of Lobster 🦞 that looks so good...
I loved this guy ever since he started cooking instead of writing Game of Thrones show.
I can find you on Gronda by the way great job
oh man l love saffron rice
LOVE HIM. and his partner lol. this is such a good channel.
Andy, been following you for quite some time. Love your channel. On the question of Saffron, in Portugal we can get the very cheap powdered variety which for someone like me (coming from the Middle East) I find it to be as good as the very expensive version.
Golden saffron isn’t bad at all and it’s the most affordable!
