Simple Paella at Home

[@TheCooknShare]

Hi Joy, we tried this many times and it turned out great. Also our friends in Facebook have tried it. They were happy as the outcome was good, as well. We don't know exactly what happened. Perhaps it was the rice or there was a little too much water. Our ratio is one cup of rice to two cups of stock. Go to the link for the recipe details.

[@TheCooknShare]

hi marie, Ive been careful about my pronunciation honestly as i have high respect and we really love this rice dish from your country. thank you for the feedback. That's a compliment and really appreciated. Thank you for dropping by, marie. :-)

[@TheCooknShare]

hi cliane, very true. When making paella or any other Spanish rice dish, don't wash the rice, for it needs its outer coating of starch. and yes, Japanese rice is great. Keep up learning cooking, for sure yo will impress your hubby. Thanks for the comment.

[@TheCooknShare]

Yes, you can use whatever you have on hand. Happy cooking!

[@treshaperena]

First time making paella and just made this for my family, they loved it! Lovely recipe!

[@TheCooknShare]

Hi Tresha. Great. So glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for the comment.

[@anuraa95]

I just tried it and loved it thanks for sharing. It would be nice tho if you put the ingredient list in the descriptionbar, now i had to go back and forth from the website to video

[@eldritchb1tch475]

Have made this 4 times already and it turns out perfectly each time! I have added or substituted ingredients based on what I have on hand! This is an awesome staple recipe as all of the ingredients store well, perfect for covid19 lockdown! Thanks so much

[@TheCooknShare]

Wonderful!

[@rommelphilipafurong]

nicely done.. one of the best foods Filipinos inherited from the Spaniards back the Philippine history.. thanks cook n share!

[@TheCooknShare]

hi ellenben, yes impress your hubby, he will like it. we will actually make this tonight again. we love this dish so much. like @ange says, possibilities of ingredients are endless. so we will add clams, mussles etc tonight for our visitors. thanks for dropping by, hope you stay to our channel.

[@Esperalzi-Esfaral]

Authentic or not, this is the best paella recipe that I've come across, the easiest to do. I wanna try this version. I am from Malaysia.

[@TheCooknShare]

Hi. Thanks so much. Yes, I cook it all the time. It is so good.

[@Esperalzi-Esfaral]

Tq. We don't have paella rice in Malaysia. We have basmathi rice, Thai fragrant rice and the Malaysian regular rice. Can I use any of these rice varieties? definitely I have to, no choice here..

[@TheCooknShare]

I think That would be fine.

[@marychang6366]

I’m from Malaysia too I have cooked this a few times and i loved it! Quick and simple

[@darlanann5892]

Yes, it was really fast and tasty:)thank you!

[@Cashman94]

Gotta give it a try. I just started to learn Spanish and my teacher told me about this dish. Being indian, I think it would taste delicious due to garlic and onion and also tomatoes. Plus red chilli powder is just filling my mouth full of water. Will let you know how it turns out

[@TheCooknShare]

Hi Laurent! Yes, it is a great recipe. We have had it several times. Your music is great. We plan to use it for some other recipes, as well.

[@victoriasophiaysabelleelis3489]

Thanks for sharing your talent, time and effort. God bless you and your family. ❤😇

[@juenpep]

I‘m from Valencia (original city of the paella) and I was with the gun ready after I saw the thumbnail. But I loved your humble and just admitting it’s not the original recipe, unlike some top chefs. Congrats and sorry for my compatriots that didn’t pass the intro. Anyways nice dish!

[@sandranienhuis850]

i love the fact you say that this is not the authenthic way to make paella, but your way !

[@TheCooknShare]

Hi. Glad you picked up on that. Many don't.

[@mjcutright]

TheCooknShare That's how I make mine too. So good! My favorite part is the toasted rice at the bottom!

Haven't seen an easy but delicious recipe like this for a long time. Great presentation amigo

[@TheCooknShare]

Thanks so much.

[@HarjRadio]

You rock! Made it for guests last night and they loved it! Although I did add another ingredient that made the flavor really unique. Along with the broth, I added a bit of Chardonnay, which is a great wine to pair Paella with. I recommend everyone try it! :D

[@TheCooknShare]

HarjRadio Hi. Fantastic. This is one of my all time favorites. Nice touch on the Chardonnay. I'll have to give that a try. Glad you enjoyed the recipe.

[@TheCooknShare]

I have tasted Italian risotto, and I don't think the taste and look are similar. If you watch our video, we mentioned that this is not authentic Spanish paella.

[@Airam_Coach]

I will cook paella tomorrow, and I chose your video tutorial. I want to know if you put some salt on shrimp, and can I use asparagus, and coliander instead of green peas?

[@enriquejaramillo4244]

You should look at Indian Tamrind Rice or Indian Lemon Rice. Easier to cook too. Vegan Options. For meat lovers, look at Chicken Pulao.

[@vickykoay670]

Thanks for sharing... can i cook it without paprika & saffron?

[@TheCooknShare]

Hi Vicky. You can, but saffron is really a key ingredient. It give the dish a unique flavor and aroma. As with the paprika, it give the dish that reddish tinge. But if you can't find them or don't like them, give it a shot. It will still be tasty. Let us know how it turns out.

[@vickykoay670]

so sad I can't find them so I decided to cook without it, hmm... not bad is still tasty but the taste is different without the key ingredient... so it's a MUST to put paprika & saffron... ;) thanks for your sharing...

[@angldrps]

do you cook/boil the rice seperately first before adding it to the dish?

[@sarahmilne1266]

Great recipe that I’ve used several times. It would be so helpful though if quantities were given for each of the ingredients . I have found turmeric works well instead of saffron. I have not been able to get saffron , at any price.

I really really like to cook this but the most essential ingredients "saffron" is nowhere to be found here in hongkong 😦 is there any ingredient I can use to substitute the saffron but at the same time,tastes the same?

[@lepetitchat123]

Will the chicken be too dry ?

Are you staying here in korea?may i know where you bought your zafron something..thank you!!!

[@TheCooknShare]

Hi. I was in Korea for 5 years. I'm in the Philippines for a bit now. You can pick up the saffron in just about any Asian store. It's a little on the pricey side though. I hope this helps. Let us know how it turns out.

[@assejpark8283]

thanks for your response,will try it soon and update you! :)

[@Saragirlt]

Hi! I really love to try this, looks delicious. I didn’t quite get the essential ingredient that you said, the one that’s a bit pricey. What is that again? Thanks!

[@farrisirish4978]

Saffron

[@nolita84]

Thanks for sharing, again as they have posted before : this is not paella, but a paella-inspired dish. Real paella can only be cooked with a strict list of ingredients and these simply can't be substituted or removed. It's like pizza without the dough : it's just not pizza. In Spain we have several rice dishes cooked in a paella (valencian for pan), but we always refer to them as Arroz de XXX (depending of the ingredients you have at hand). Thanks for your efforts on trying to get it right!:)

[@Perfection212]

Hi!Great simple Paella recipe you got here.I love Paella but I have not cooled it by myself yet.Probably,tomorrow on Christmas Eve or the Christmas day itself.Now,just wondering,what is your measurement for the Chicken stock in 2 cups of rice?

[@TheCooknShare]

Thanks so much. It would be 2 cups of stock. Hope this helps.

[@oldolder-cs6gq]

You pronounce paella correctly and did the "don't stir it" rule. But call it a socarrat near anyone who's Spanish or else they will mock you a bit saying don't put peas in it unless it's a socarrat and possibly tell you how to make a proper one

[@oldolder-cs6gq]

Edit: but other than that you did quite well

How much rice and water or stock???

Hi ML P. There are different liquids in there. If I'm just making rice, it's usually 2 parts stock to 1 part rice, but this is a bit different. What you add in will absorb the rice. There is actually a link to the recipe in the description section of the video. Hope you make it and enjoy.
