Method:

Fry onions in 30 ml (2 tbsp) olive oil over low heat until browned and well-softened. Add garlic and parsley and toss for 1 to 2 minutes.
Add tomatoes and sugar and cook until softened and thick. Purée until smooth.
Fry batches of chicken, cuttlefish and line fish in olive oil in a large flameproof casserole dish until golden brown. Add puréed sauce and rice and cover with stock.
Cook over low heat until tender, about 40 to 50 minutes, or until rice has absorbed all the liquid.
