In case you didn't know, it was World Paella Day on September 20th, and we celebrated at La Paloma with some very special giant Paellas!

This week, to celebrate World Paella Day, I show you stepbystep how to cook a beautiful Spanish seafood paella the authentic way with the very same paella recipe we use at my restaurant, La Paloma. Our paellas are the stars of the show at La Paloma, so this is a very special video for me today.

When we're cooking a truly authentic Spanish paella, there are some important things to pay attention to that make a good paella. One of the main things that Spanish people look for in a great paella is the Socarrat the crispy toasted rice that stick to the bottom of the pan. The Socarrat is where all the flavour of the stock accumulates and is where you get the very best flavour.

So follow me with this easy to follow video recipe and cook your very own authentic Spanish seafood paella at home today!
