   4 - Add the shrimp, mussels, clams and lobster tails into the rice and cook further for about 7 minutes. (If you are using canned peas add during the last 5 minutes of cooking ... If you are using frozen peas add at same time when you add the fish.) Then add the squid rings and cook for another 7 to 13 minutes until the rice is tender and all the clams and mussels have opened. (Discard any that have remained closed.) If the paella seems dry add some of the extra stock...
