Paella Filipino Recipe Panlasang Pinoy

Paella is a popular rice dish that originated from the Valencia region of Spain. This is usually made of short grain yellow rice and cooked in a special wide-flat pan called “Paellera”. This paella marinera is one of the paella versions that I really like.

Paella Marinera is a type of seafood paella that showcases the richness of the ocean. This particular recipe involves different seafood, which I think is a very lovely combination.

Aside from the different seafood, this dish tasted perfect because of the type of rice and saffron used. Using seasoned yellow rice brings in a lot of good flavor, while the Spanish saffron (which is considered as one of the most expensive spices) improves the taste and aroma of the dish.

At a quick glance, the color of this dish seems unusual. It has more of a reddish color instead of the normal yellow. It is because of the tomato sauce. I never thought that having tomato sauce in seafood paella will produce great results.

I was only involved in filming when this dish is being cooked. All the instructions come from my uncle, who happens to be one of my mentors. Whenever I am with him, I instantly become a student – eagerly digesting all the information and techniques that he is sharing. The hands that you see in the video are my aunt’s and my wife’s. It’s like filming a dish for the grandest cooking class. It was such a wonderful experience.

Here is how this yummy seafood paella was made. The first thing that you need to do is prepare the paste. I am talking about the garlic, parsley, and paprika mixture. These are key ingredients because it helps a lot to make the dish taste and look better. Once you have this ready, it’s time to cook.

We will need to partially cook the shrimp and squid with oil in order for the oil to absorb the flavor from these ingredient. Simple heat the remaining olive oil in your paella pan and pan fry the shrimp and squid quickly. Remove the seafood once done and set these aside.

Next is to saute the onion and tomato until it gets soft. The green peas gets added after this step along with the garlic and parsley mixture that you prepared initially. I also add the clam juice and water right away and let the entire mixture boil. The clam juice can be purchased in the supermarket. It is usually in the seafood aisle along area where the canned fish are located. These are usually packaged in bottles.

When the mixture starts to boil, this is your indicator to add the saffron and rice. Saffron is a very important ingredient for paella. It will be worth every penny that you spent. I suggest using the best quality saffron that you can get. You will save money if you buy in bulk. Unlike other ingredients, for saffron I consider 1 ounce to be a bulk because of the price. As for the rice, Calasparra rice is what I prefer.

Once the rice in place, cover the pan and cook until the rice gets partially cooked. Arrange the shrimp, squid, clams, and mussels on top. Cover to let the rice cook completely. Arrange the lemon wedges and you are done with your masterpiece. You might also want to see our other seafood paella recipe known as Paella Marinera.

Paella

Paella is a Spanish rice dish cooked and served in a paellera, a large shallow frying pan, where it took its name. It is traditionally made with short grain rice, butter beans or peas, and plentiful meats in the area, such as duck, chicken, rabbit, or seafood. Saffron threads give the dish its characteristic color and flavor, but turmeric can be substituted as a cheaper alternative.

While many consider Paella as the national dish of Spain, it originated from the Valencia region, which is regarded as the home of Paella. Many variations exist in Spanish-speaking countries and internationally, from the original Paella Valenciana, Paella de mariscos made of seafood, to mixed Paella, which combines meat, seafood, and vegetables.

Is the perfect example of Spanish influences in our cuisine. A byproduct of 300 years of colonization, it is adelicious fusion of our local tastes and cultural heritage.

As it commonly uses relatively expensive ingredients like saffron and prawns, the dish is mostly relegated to special occasions and holiday celebrations. It's an elegant and impressive addition to any Christmas feast!
