Stir in the paella rice, turmeric, and smoked paprika to coat the vegetables in spices.

Remove from heat, stir in olive oil and chopped parsley.

Coat artichokes in 45ml of vegetable oil and griddle in a hot pan for 2 minutes per side.

Spoon paella onto plates and top with the griddled artichole hearts.
