I cheated and just used saffron rice, and used chicken and shrimp. It turned out really good! Thanks for a simple yummy recipe! -
This was sooo good and easy. I replaced the fish listed here with equal amounts of cod and chicken, and it still came out very nicely. My family agreed that it tasted BETTER than any paella we had in Spain =) I really can't wait to make this again..it was simple and yummy! -
I substituted the saffron with turmeric and it turned out fine.. -
I made this for *Zaar World Tour III* - This was so easy to make and it looked and tasted yummy. I chopped the squid cubes and the capsicums. I had to substitute the saffron threads with imitation saffron (it was the only one I could find in the supermarket). Thank you katia for a yummy dinner.
