Paella is the most famous Spanish dish, which is prepared in a wide, flat, double-sided pan without a lid. The pan is called paella in the East and paellera elsewhere. The dish actually got its name from this pan. The rice is colored yellow with saffron grown in the region of La Mancha. Other ingredients include dried sweet peppers from Murcia, Andalusian olive oil and fresh vegetables, as well as juice from locally grown lemons and a little dry white wine. The rice must not be stirred during cooking, so even heat is very important, traditionally wood burning.
It is available in more versions and is made with meat, seafood, and even pasta.
You can eat great paella in several restaurants near MallorCasita.
