  • Ok before you shout at us, recipes for paella differ from region to region, and this seafood-free version is Omar's take on the classic Paella Valenciana. Traditionally made with chicken and rabbit, Omar caramelises the meat and vegetables before adding the rice and must have ingredient - saffron. Garlic, smoked paprika and rosemary all add to the incredible flavours of this dish designed to bring everyone to the table. Serve with a wedge of lemon and enjoy.
    For this and loads more delicious Spanish recipes check out Omar’s book Tapas Revolution: www.thespanishchef.com/shop/p...

    I am Spanish, from Valencia, where Paella is originally from and I must say that this recipe is pretty accurate. I must say that we do not use those green beens, but a flat white bean we have in Valencia called Garrofón. Also the artichoke and garlic are optional but both add flavour and depth to the dish. Congrats Omar, it really looks like a real Paella!

Check out for 'arròs del senyoret', 'paella mixta', 'arròs al forn', 'paella de verduras', 'paella de marisco', 'arròs negre', 'paella al gusto'. The Valencian paella is the original one, as chef Omar has nicely done. But after civil war, it was made out of 'marjal rat' meat, a kind of rabbit from valencian coast.

    My family works in the import of Saffron. Spanish saffron is actually some of the cheapest saffron in the world, as a whole. Afghan is generally the most expensive, but with that said there is a small region in Spain that produces a special type of saffron in La Mancha with low yields. This is a relatively expensive saffron compared to the other regions of Spain and it's a very high quality product. But the statement claiming Spanish saffron is the most expensive or finest or best or whatever is absolutely untrue. Mr. Oliver also stated that Saffron is as expensive as gold per ounce in another video a few years back, which is also untrue, as even the finest saffron on Earth is far below the price of gold per ounce, maybe a bit closer to the price of silver.

    Made this to ring in the new year (Happy 2020!) and it was absolutely delicious. Last summer I visited Valencia and ate a top notch paella Valenciana and this was just as good, if not better:) Also, I didn't have a proper paella pan and used a well seasoned cast-iron skillet and it cam out perfectly, socarrat and all. Thanks so much.

    No pepper.
