[Saffron gives this dish its traditional Paella
coloring. It is however, expensive. Turmeric can be
used as a substitute.]

Drain the can of salmon, reserving the juice. Set
aside.

Heat the oil in a large pan and cook the garlic, onion
and leek for 5 minutes. Stir in the rice, prawns,
mussels, salmon juice, stock, lemon juice and saffron.
Mix well, bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and
simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the liquid is almost
completely absorbed by the rice.

Stir the tomatoes into the rice along with the salmon,
broken into large flakes.

Pile into a serving dish and decorate with the whole
prawns and lemon slices. Serve immediately.
