How To Make Spanish Paella | Omar Allibhoy

- čas přidán 22. 04. 2015
- Ok before you shout at us, recipes for paella differ from region to region, and this seafood-free version is Omar's take on the classic Paella Valenciana. Traditionally made with chicken and rabbit, Omar caramelises the meat and vegetables before adding the rice and must have ingredient - saffron. Garlic, smoked paprika and rosemary all add to the incredible flavours of this dish designed to bring everyone to the table. Serve with a wedge of lemon and enjoy.

Thanks Spanish John Snow, it tasted great
Wooooow true!!
rofl. I thought the same thing.
Juan Nieve*
He's called Jon Nieve in the Spanish translation, I'm not kidding.

Wasn't sure at first if it was going to be a real spanish cook. But when he said "e-spain" and "let's e-start" i was satisfied :D
hes half morrocan
@@robertogiuntoli7527 makes sense. Was hardly to believe he'd be Spanish with a name like Omar Ali.
@@robertogiuntoli7527 Morocco is not middel eastern
Very funny you are
The name of the country is E-spaña, so it makes sense to pronounce E-spain. But I see what you meant anyway.
Finally!! I am Spanish, and THIS is the closer to a good paella. Thank you for taking the time to do this, and show the world how amazing Spanish cuisine is. And you are doing it the right way. THANKS and LOVE from Spain!!!! :)
Sara Ferrero He forgot the chorizo!
No chorizo
Me It’s not traditional
Chorizooooo
We love Spain's food too!
I'm from Valencia (Spain) and this is a completly real paella!! 100%
paco ernesto I just got home from after living in Valencia for about 9 months. Miss the paellas already 😭
Garrofon is missing but it is difficult to find if you are not from Spain
@@leolano3229 Yeeees!
My grandma used to make it. She passed before I could try it. My mom's side is from Spain. 🇪🇸 I want to try this dish.
Casi, que quite el ajo i tot bé.
Edito. Y si en vez de usar caldo usa agua, mejor, la paella con agua y no con caldo.
I am Spanish, from Valencia, where Paella is originally from and I must say that this recipe is pretty accurate. I must say that we do not use those green beens, but a flat white bean we have in Valencia called Garrofón. Also the artichoke and garlic are optional but both add flavour and depth to the dish. Congrats Omar, it really looks like a real Paella!
+Juan Ig. Ramón thanks for the info!
+Juan Ig. Ramón Is saffron a must or is there an acceptable alternative to the herb?
It's a must if you want to try the real recipe.
Saffron is a must. The biggest must of the dish next to the rice ;)
Garrofón es difícil de conseguir en Madrid, no te digo ya en Inglaterra.
Finally someone who does it the right way, congrats from Valencia, Paella birthplace ☺
yeah - it's crazy, how many videos of "chiefs" appear on the net - all claiming to do it right and yet they are all so awfully wrong...... - THIS man does it right, no steering, no this and that.... - soccarat is being mentioned - perfect !!!
@niels vogt steering????
Theres traditional and non traditional Paella. There's really no right way.
It looks truly fantastico!
Mr.305 Exactly
Boy that's the closest thing to a perfect Paella Valenciana I've seen out of Valencia, and that includes the rest of Spain. Made with a lot of respect and love for the recipe, congratulations, you should be proud.
Pero en la comunidad Valenciana es donde se hace la mejor 😅😅

MightyBassian Lol
As a Spaniard.. I can't stop laughing at your comment 😂
👌🤣🤣🤣🤣👍🍻
Very funny!
Ooh I cant stop laughing.....
This is one of the most authentic paella recipes I've seen. The rest on CZcams are more like seafood risotto! This guys technique can't be faulted.
Risotto has a totally different technique and it is not second to Paella. Maybe it wasn't in your intentions, but you showed no respect...
As a Valencian, I can say this is one of the best recipes I've seen in youtube!
Its crazy how this is on Jamie's page, yet his own recipe coudnt be any further from this! Lovely and authentic looking here
Caramelized rice? Is he talking about "socarrat"? OMG, he is!
THIS is the real deal, people!
Really like this guy, would love to see more videos from him
I have got to stop watching this stuff in the middle of the night. Bloody starving now!
Trust the chef who tells you that "socarrat" is the best part of the paella
It really is!! 🤣🤣 We have Spanish friends and we have been told stories about how her and her brother would fight over it 😂
Persians/Iranian have a kind of "socarrat" too, it's called, "tahdig." I am an old person, but find that Omar is a good cook and so handsome too.
@@12mimma god yes! This way of cooking is the way to make cultured women fall in love.
3 seconds in I already knew I couldn’t afford this recipe
True 😂😂
😅😂😂😂😭
It doesn’t need to be expensive , you can buy the paella mix in any supermarket for around 5 bucks serves 6 then use meats and veggies at hand.
Have a go at making the african cousin, Jollof Rice; or the american cousin, Jambalaya. Both are like Paella but less fancified.
You can use normal round rice instead of bomba, some food coloring instead of saffron and remove the artichoke. The most important thing is the rosemary and to brown the meat with a decent amount of olive oil(that's maybe the most expensive ingredient out of Spain).
Socarrat makes the difference between a normal paella and an exceptional paella.
I am very happy and proud of the respect you have shown for the original recipe.
Congratulations!
love how technical he is, he explains everything so nicely and kind of scientifically! he is a great cook, worked at el bulli, you can tell! keep them recipes coming!! great work!
Scientifically? He didn't even mention the Maillard reaction and reduction that produces the socarraet.
Omar you are a great teacher! Love how you explain each step !
Hi Omar. I just made your Paella, item by item, and everything turned out just perfect. Incredible taste. You’re an inspiration to me. I love Spanish food and have made other tapas meals from your recipes. Thank you.
Spanish food is so sophisticated and humble at the same time. It's absolutely delicious. Please bring more Spanish recipes.
A authentic spanish chef making an outstanding paella, no onion, no chorizo for once. Great job buddy!
Estás haciendo un trabajo cojonudo Omar, espero que hagas más recetas npara este canal, a ver si perdemos el complejo de inferioridad que tenemos con la cocina italiana o la francesa y que todo el mundo pueda apreciar la cocina española real.
Un saludo!
bustixaniego ahora habla en francés, te falta ese por que has hablado inglés y el español y se nota el traductor 😉😉
Hemos ido al Barcelona por diez días y casi cada día comíamos paella. Es una comida maravillosa, fresca y perfecto por una compañía de amigos o parejas. Me gusta la cocina de España porque todos los ingredientes están frescos y porque estamos vecinos (soy de Grecia) donde la comida siempre está fresca y rica.
Try to make It at home. This recipee IS way better than what they usually serve in Barcelona
Years ago I was able to study in Spain and my host family prepared paella every Sunday afternoon. I looked forward to Sundays and loved it every single time. The difference is my host mother used seafood (mariscos) instead of chicken and rabbit. For those who are paella connoisseurs, which do you prefer, and why? I really like this chef. I looked and see he has a cookbook of Spanish tapas. Wow!
FINALLY a REAL paella recipe in this channel and in CZcams in general!!! And for those asking, yes, paella can be made with seafood or even mixing meat and seafood. Nice one!
Thank you for answering that. I see a lot of arguments about mixing meat in paella.
@@locvu6185 In fact, in Valencia, we had several rice dishes. Some called paella, and some not, depending on the ingredients and way of cooking. Check out for 'arròs del senyoret', 'paella mixta', 'arròs al forn', 'paella de verduras', 'paella de marisco', 'arròs negre', 'paella al gusto'. The Valencian paella is the original one, as chef Omar has nicely done. But after civil war, it was made out of 'marjal rat' meat, a kind of rabbit from valencian coast.
@@ladelafalda Thank you for explaining that. I will check out the other dishes!
Im from Valencia, and thats almost perfect paella recipe. Great work Omar!
Love how his accent gets more and more Spanish as he progresses...
@belinda is better than your trash singer, u bish but his name is "TheSpanishChef"
@belinda is better than your trash singer, u bish yet his accent seems distinctly Spanish and not Arabic. Probably to do with the fact that his fluent in Spanish and used it as a base for learning English? I don’t know. Maybe the Moroccan dialect is just that similar that it causes an accent that an English speaker can’t differentiate
@belinda is better than your trash singer, u bish I’m confused what your point is then. Sure he’s Moroccan, I wasn’t saying he wasn’t, but his accent, in English, is Spanish
@@commanderkei9537 don't worry, they didn't have a point
I’m originally of Spanish descent and I’ve grown up my entire life eating Paella. The first time I attempted to make paella on my own I followed this recipe and it was the BEST paella I’ve had! Amazing! I’ve been craving it every day ever since I made it!
I wanna try yours now 😋.
Genial 👏, me alegro por ti! Congratulations ✨!

Loved this! Omar is a real genuine and very lovable guy. Great recipe!
I need to move to Spain and start hustling Saffron... stuffs expensive
1.5 Litre of water with 250g of rice -- that is hardly correct is it ??
@@piercepower9649 I think he used too much water as well I find 1 litre of stock for around 250g rice is enough as long as you watch the heat isn't too high the rice should cook well and still form the crispy bottom without getting burnt
@@piercepower9649 the rice that he used is the starchy kind, it absorbs a lot of water. that is why he specifically said Never to use long-grain types of rice because it won't behave the same and you will end up with soup
@@piercepower9649 It´s wrong
I am.going to plant suffron in my garden
Absolutely Deeeelicious , Thank you Omar for this easy and clear instructions.
Thank you Jamie for introducing this talented Spanish youngster so versatile with paella cooking
I tried Paella for the first time in Palma, with sangria, and I was so amazed, that this is the foremost dish ....anywhere... totally delicious
Palma de Mallorca? Unfortunately the overtourism, mostly by Germans, pretty much ruined the place.
He really used some amazing techniques. Proves that this is such an important part of the dish. You have to know what order to add ingredients, whether to stir or not, etc. Cant wait to try this.
Not only have you shown how to expertly cook this amazing dish but I appreciate all the extra comments about the different types of rice, toasting the saffron, using smoked paprika... Thank you.
Best paella recipe ever! Have made it many times, simple but so delicious. Thank you!
Greetings from Zamora, Spain! :D
(Por fin alguien que enseña cocina española de verdad y no el típico "X con chorizo". Entendedlo, no le echamos chorizo a todo.)
This looks like the best Paella dish in the history of forever!!!!! Good work, Omar. WANT!!!
DJ BBQ yikes.
I can guess you have not seen many paellas, my friend.
This is your average looking paella
Best!? Looks like someone haven't tasted many food.
@@didac80 I'm Spanish and lived in Valencia for 11 years. I've eaten loads of paellas both homemade and in restaurants. This is the best one, believe me. Have you even given it a try?
I did this recipe, the paella turned out UNBELIEVABLY DELICIOUS, I live in Spain and I was able to buy all of the necessary ingredients(saffron, the right rice for the recipe, etc.) and boy it was so gooood, I even had the "socarrat" on the bottom of my paella pan, thank you so much, Omar, we really loved it!!!!
Qué buen vídeo Omar! Muy bien explicado y yendo siempre al grano sin enrollarse demasiado. Explicar una receta de paella valenciana en ocho minutos tiene su mérito y que además tenga esa pinta! Me has inspirado para cocinar paella en casa.
I followed the instruction and my paella was really fine with a fine socarrat. The "do not stir" rule makes all the difference. Also the toasted saffron is really nice and from now on I will do the same for risotto and other dishes.
agree. I am not the fan of the Spanish cuisine at all. but following this nice guy's instructions I made it great. The ingredients are easy to be found here in Hong Kong. The flavor during cooking is so amazing... I am sure all my neighbors at nearby villas are jealous . This chef made my day!
This guy is one of the best spanish food chef in UK ; he appears in several gordon ramsay's emissions!
The reason you are not a fan of Spanish cuisine is because there are next to know good Spanish restaurants outside Spain
Alexandro Rocca the "do not stir" rule is the key of the proper paella, its the difference between a good meal and an expensive cat food hahah i hope you enjoyed the meal ;)
in risotto you want the starch to be released to have a softer less hard risotto. you have to stir it otherwise it will be crap
Omar Allibhoy. Please more recipe, nice job.
If you want to cook a real paella add this video to favs and stop searching.
This is real paella!
¡Perfecta Omar!
Worked perfect, my wife was thoroughly surprised. Thank you !
The Rice at the end looks absolutely perfect. Separate but slightly sticky with the flavours, and very well explained
Love it! YES, YES I want more Spanish dishes.
I'm making my third paella right now based on this video. Best instructions I've ever come across.
Thank you, Omar! Una receta y demostracion excelente!
I hope someday we can genetically create more saffron so it can get cheaper. Makes things taste SO GOOD
Prince David I hope someday we will stop to do things genetically and respect nature : )
***** Genetic modification is the only way of fighting starvation.
Yin Yang I am not agree, this is not true. It is what Monsanto and similars want to us to believe.
***** You do know that we have been genetically modifying plants for thousands of years right? Its called selective breeding.
***** I had to google who Monsanto were xD Anyway, this has nothing to do with any company, it's really basic: we do not have high enough yields and so we need to find ways to increase them.
Ok, this is the real deal, exactly as it's done in Valencia. Well done!
Beautiful... I love learning about traditional dishes from multiple cultures, and I would love to try this, it looks amazing and I’m sure it smells fantastic.
Omar, i moved to Valencia, had to do a Paella, so pretty daunting. I followed your recipe and approach to the letter and it was truly amazing. When I toasted the saffron that surprised people and they loved the dish - so tasty - thank you
This guy talks about el socarrat, proof that its legit!
Es español...

No ham.
No chorizo.
No beans.
No pepper.
P.S.: I'm from Valencia.
Well done you.
@Bob Taylor exacly... and that´s not true, even the artichokes is not an important ingredient, you can add it but is not the real paella valenciana... and garlic?? at least is cooked properly.

Rard seafood paella is not paella valenciana, they are different paellas... different recipes and ingredients. But is a nice one!

This is amazing. I'm from the West Indies and we have a similar dish called Pellau. The ingredients used are different but the concept is the same.

@@karabellamente191 Hello! Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹🙌🏽
I love Paella and thank you for explaining in details how to prepare it!!! It looks awesome!!!
Made this to ring in the new year (Happy 2020!) and it was absolutely delicious. Last summer I visited Valencia and ate a top notch paella Valenciana and this was just as good, if not better:) Also, I didn't have a proper paella pan and used a well seasoned cast-iron skillet and it cam out perfectly, socarrat and all. Thanks so much.
Soy Española y he de decir que tiene muy buena pinta y es una paella española. Todo depende de cada parte de España se añade algo , por ejemplo pimientos, garbanzos... y en vez de picar el ajo se le pone la cabeza de ajo frita en el centro de la paella, ah y lleva un poco de mas tomate. Pero por lo demás muy buen trabajo, felicidades!! :)
No se nada, Jon Esnó.
I love this kind of food! Burrito just perfect i love how the dishes mixed with the rice!
Dude, burritos are Mexican. Paella is Spanish, more particularly, it is Valencian
Actually, i‘m not so much into Spanish food, because i don’t know it. But this chef got me hooked on watching all videos thanks to his calm, chill and very knowledgeable presentation.
I‘ve already made the chorizo stew, which was soooo good!
I‘ll try paella as soon as i have all the ingredients for that.
Try it, you will love it :)
Brilliant recipe
I just made it. It was delicious!
I love this traditionally Scottish dish
After watching countless videos on Paella, I can tell that you have it nailed down. We are throwing a party for 8 this Sat and we are going to roll with your help here given we have never cooked Paella before. Thanks for sharing you knowledge and giving us courage! Cheers
i was watching "the final table" and I saw them making Paella, I immediately fell in love. Now here just the chicken made me hungry :)
Final Table inspired us as well. Paella is reducing as I type.
Any foreigner: "Where is chorizo?"
Any Spanish person: "We never put chorizo in our paella"
Busca lo que es chorizo en Google , pero si ponen chorizo a una "paella" pasa a ser arroz
Correction: Valencian, in Madrid has a bad paellas, BAD
CHORIZO is for the lentils!!! XD

Authentic . Perfect , good job .
My family works in the import of Saffron. Spanish saffron is actually some of the cheapest saffron in the world, as a whole. Afghan is generally the most expensive, but with that said there is a small region in Spain that produces a special type of saffron in La Mancha with low yields. This is a relatively expensive saffron compared to the other regions of Spain and it's a very high quality product. But the statement claiming Spanish saffron is the most expensive or finest or best or whatever is absolutely untrue. Mr. Oliver also stated that Saffron is as expensive as gold per ounce in another video a few years back, which is also untrue, as even the finest saffron on Earth is far below the price of gold per ounce, maybe a bit closer to the price of silver.
exactly what i was wondering about! spanish saffron is certainly almost the cheapest i know of!
Omg this dish looks so good 😱 my mouth is watering
Oh, man... That looked absolutely AMAZING!!!!
I have prepared it several times, following your footsteps, of course. Always sooooo good!!! A knockout!

Paella is amazing, my mother makes it exactly like this nearly everyday, though saffron is used once a month.
What do you use most days?
@@ivetterodriguez1994 It's typical to use artificial colorant, but I don't recommend it. I use turmeric (curcuma) instead. If you don't add too much, it gives the colour, but no turmeric flavour. Of course, you miss the essence of saffron, but saffron is not affordable for everyone.
WOW! This looks magnificent (and I'm certain it's delicious). And, I'm sure the very charming Spanish man (with his beautiful accent) adds to the authentic flavor of this national dish.
