Put the rice in a sieve and rinse with cold water. Bring to the boil with the broth and bay leaves. Cook the rice to the bite for about 20 minutes according to the instructions on the packet. Heat the olive oil in a deep pan.
Allow the onions and garlic to become translucent. Add the pepper strips and chilli cubes and fry. Then mix in the tomatoes. Season with paprika powder, oregano, salt and pepper.
Cover the vegetables and cook for 15 minutes over a medium heat. Then drain the rice, collecting the stock. Fold the rice dripping wet under the vegetables, add 4-5 tablespoons of stock, simmer for another 10 minutes.
