Paella

Paella is a great dish for sharing with friends and it is easy to alter the ingredients to suit availability.

Make it Different

Paella is a great dish for altering the ingredients and experimenting. If, for example, you don’t like squid, leave it out and add an alternative seafood.

Missing Ingredients?

It is always the best option to use fresh local ingredients so see what you can find at the local fishmongers – if they don’t have something that is listed, substitute it or add more of what you can get.
