Chuleton a la Brasa Carne

Chuletón de Buey a la Brasa

⏱ 40 min🍽 2 servings🔥 Medium

A thick, bone in beef rib chop seared over hardwood coals and finished with flaked sea salt. The proud centerpiece of any Spanish grill, rich and deeply savory.

Ingredients

  • 1 bone in beef rib chop, about 1 kg and 4 cm thick
  • 2 tbsp beef tallow, melted
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Flaked sea salt (sal en escamas)
  • 2 cloves garlic, halved

  • Cracked black pepper
  • 1 lemon, halved
  • A few piquillo peppers, to serve
  • A handful of watercress, to serve

Instructions

  1. Take the chop out of the fridge 1 hour before cooking so it reaches room temperature, then pat it very dry.
  2. Build a hardwood or charcoal fire and let it burn down to glowing, even embers.
  3. Rub the chop with melted tallow and olive oil, then press the cut garlic and rosemary over the surface.
  4. Sear over high heat about 5 minutes per side for a deep crust, then move to a cooler part of the grill and cook to your liking.
  5. Rest the chop on a warm board for 8 minutes, loosely tented with foil.
  6. Carve along the bone into thick slices and shower with flaked sea salt and black pepper.
  7. Serve with grilled lemon, piquillo peppers, and fresh watercress.

Paella de Marisco

⏱ 1 hr🍽 6 servings🔥 Medium

Saffron stained rice simmered with mussels, clams, prawns, and squid in a wide pan. Spain's most celebrated dish, built on good olive oil and the bounty of the sea.

Ingredients

  • 400g Bomba or Calasparra rice
  • 1.2 liters warm fish stock
  • A generous pinch of saffron threads
  • 5 tbsp olive oil
  • 12 mussels, cleaned

A Spanish table set for a shared meal
Nuestra Cocina

A Kitchen Rooted in the Spanish Table

Onakia Cocina began with a simple belief, that the food of Spain tastes best when it is made the honest way. From the rice fields of Valencia to the olive groves of Andalusia, our cooking leans on the ingredients and the good fats that generations of Spanish kitchens have always trusted.

Every recipe we share is built on real butter, golden olive oil, and traditional lard, never refined vegetable or seed oils. We test each dish until it feels like something you would be proud to set on the table, then write it down plainly so it travels well into your own home.

This is unhurried cooking. A sofrito left to soften, a loaf given time to rise, a paella allowed to form its crust. We invite you to slow down, light the fire, and taste what patience and good ingredients can do.
