I've looked at loads of recipes for paella and I appreciate the detail that this particular content Creator has gone into to help me re-create the dish that I enjoyed in Andalusia. I probably won't use chorizo as I do agree it's a little strong for the seafood and might overpower it but culturally maybe he likes stronger flavours, so for those complaining, try lettting people express themselves.
Thank you for the recipe, I'm making this now for my wife's 61 Bday dinner. I'm, at the 10 min high heat just about to add the prawns. Cheers, PS Cheesecake for dessert I made yesterday.
Preparation time, attempting this tomorrow, especially enjoying your take on "making this mine" will follow up with an explanation of substitutions - not many, however, using what I have on hand, which is also one of your suggestions. Will post after occasion/paella festivity and tasting occur.!
This is a great presentation. I have eaten / shared paella several times in New York, and thanks to you for generously sharing the details on what pan, and spices and rice to use. This recipe can be tried by any keen home cook like me.
You're a natural at this online kitchen thing CrazyKurt. Your Paella (and yes, your good lady is correct in its pronunciation) looked fantastic. I am suitably impressed
Hahaha. So funny. I had the same reaction ..." ITS PAELLA!!!".....And realized that perhaps I'm not even saying it right but however you say it, the goal is to make sure its always very good and then who cares how to pronounce it. :-)
@@CRAZYGUYKURTCOOKS will do…I think I will make a slight change to the recipe by cooking the chicken with the chorizo…then add the onion and red pepper..garlic…
Our guests loved it! Local mussels were not available so just used a few more prawns….timing was bang on, the Spanish Bomba Rice I used suggested a 3-1 liquid to rice ratio so that’s what I used and I added 1 minute on high heat at the end to make sure the bottom of the pan had that nice crispy texture which it did..will make it again soon
Made this myself but my ingredients weren’t as pure. Wife and i feel it needs more salt and heat but using this as a base test was perfect. Thanks for the video!
@@CRAZYGUYKURTCOOKS I’m no chef And for some reason my TH-cam has brought me down the cooking rabbit hole. I have heard most chefs say the onions go in first but I have no clue if it’s true or not. Like most things there’s more then one way to skin a cat. Good luck with the channel. 👍🏻
@@marcuslarwa9098 thanks Marcus. I like to infuse the onions with the flavour of the chorizo. Hence me putting it in first. But that’s why I love cooking, there are so many ways you can approach things! Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
Excellent stuff CrazyGuyKurt...definitely gonna try this recipe...can't wait for lots more of those amazing dishes you guys cook...lots of love and stay safe :)
Hello. Yes you can, I would just watch the temperature very carefully. You want to develop the crust but I think in a cast iron pan you run the risk of developing a lot more char than necessary. So I would just be careful of running too high a temperature.
I'm making this tonight... I'll let you know how it goes, looks amazing, the only concern I have is most of the liquid not being sucked in by the rice and it being too watery. Wish me luck EDIT: Was really really solid... Good recipe!!
I too made this camping using a camp stove outside in 35 degree F weather. it it too was very wet. The crust was very good and every bit of what I made was eaten. My friends (6 adults) said it didn’t look like the picture but it was GOOD!
Uh OH...I used Arborillo rice not Bomba rice and used the 2 liters of liquid. Arbirillo requires less liquid than Bomba rice so that must be why my dish was wet.
Hi crazy chef, so cooking time is 10 min on high, then 5-10 min, is that on low or medium? You said on second heat change as low for 5 min then you said 10 min on med…. Then remove to cool off flame and no foil tent? Please clarify the final or second flame size and minutes please. Thx
@@SophiesWorld2024 first thing, you don't mix seafood and chicken. You might think , But I like it. Ok but then it's your thing not paella. If you mix cheese, fries, chicken, mince meat, tomato sauce you won't call it mac n cheese.
thank you ! your video is.awesome ❤and im going to make this paella step by step for my girl friends family when they visit next month from tenerife , ill let you know how it goes .@@CRAZYGUYKURTCOOKS
No chorizo in Paella,the reason is that you are expending big money in those expensive seafood that is gonna taste like chorizo...in Spain we make seafood paella o meat paella,we never make mix paella.Only bad restaurants for tourists make it Good things you have done:correct rice and home made stock.
Hey Man - there is nothing that cannot be added to Paella - all that is important is the method used in the cooking eg: we want to end up with paella and not risotto.
Maybe so, but more fool the people who won’t eat this combination of ingredients as it’s absolutely delicious! There is room for any invention in food!
@@AlexM-sg8fn Not true! If there is a name for a dish (paella), then it must be prepared in the same way as paella! If he does it differently, let the name of the dish be meat with rice or something else. Do you understand? Because then I can make champagne out of pills, right? And I'll tell you in a video that champagne should be made by adding 3 tablets to grape juice and that's it.
@@spaincostablanca9043 I didn’t call it ‘paella’ at any stage - so cool down ☺️. I called it a ‘combination of ingredients’ - and as I said, it is absolutely delicious in its own right 😋👍
Too many ingredients spoil the broth. You should not mix seafood with meats (esp seafood and chorizo). Also, don't mix seafood broth with meat broth...
Spanish don’t mix seafood and meat on their paella. Is seafood paella or the original paella of chicken and rabit nothing else if you mixed both is not a paella. Specially if you go to Valencia Spain you are not going to see a mixed paella.
@CRAZYGUYKURT COOKS Don't listen to the haters. I've been using chorizo in mine for ten years, and friends who make their own paellas have said they love it. At least one has updated his recipe to include it! @Ensel02 you do you!

I made this last night and it was perfect. Lots of compliments. Thank you!
I don’t care what anyone else thinks…this is DELICIOUS!!! And my hubby loved it for his birthday 🥳🥘✝️🩷
I just love this guy and his presentation !
Made this yesterday, delicious. Followed your recipe, with all ingredients.
Thank you for the recipe, I'm making this now for my wife's 61 Bday dinner. I'm, at the 10 min high heat just about to add the prawns. Cheers, PS Cheesecake for dessert I made yesterday.
OMG! I have a to run to buy some ingredients looks delicious... love it!
I will follow your recipe. Thanks.
It looks delicious, thank you 👍
Glad I found you, that was lekka boet - thank you. Look forward to making it for the family this evening!
Well done and a hit for my family dinner tonight thanks!😊😊😋
Thank you funny guy. I like your style of Paella

i really like how he made this watched other videos and this one i feel the best one on this dish just a well balance if that makes sense
I think I may have eaten paella you made when you were a student! Looks amazing Kurt. Well done! ❤️ to you all!
I’m sure you did! It’s one of my favourite dishes to cook! Thanks very much Megan.
Just found your channel - This is a lovely recipe in its own right, Kurt 👍. The combination of flavours is absolutely delicious 😋
South Africa represent!
Can’t wait to make this. Love your videos Kurt! 😍👍🏾
Thanks Gwyn
Thank you Kurt. That looks damn good!!!
Absolutely brilliant

Delicious ooking you have here
I really enjoyed watching the video
Really glad you did!

I’m so pleased! Hope you had a second helping!
Enjoyed watching , looks yummy

I have been waiting a long time to make your paella recipe..,tonight is the night!
Let me know how it goes

I like your version well done looks amazing
Thanks Philip!
This is a dish I always wanted to cook but with all the authentic ingredients 🤪 so thank you crazyguykurt😜
levona siers it’s my absolute pleasure!
Made this myself but my ingredients weren’t as pure. Wife and i feel it needs more salt and heat but using this as a base test was perfect. Thanks for the video!
Most other chefs say the onions always go in first, caramelizing the onions brings out the sweetness and flavors of the onions.
Great! Thanks for that Marcus

I Like!
Indian national.cooking Spanish paella. Incredible.

Good job ma man

Coming from a maestro in the kitchen himself, that means a lot. Thanks Ken!
Excellent thank you!
I wish you would add a written recipe for this. It looks delicious and want to make it. A written recipe would be most helpful. Thanks.
Yummy food 🥘
I’m available to come test the meals as you done cooking them 😬😬😬
Aaah the stock!!!! That's the secret! Thanks so much! Question.... Can you use a cast iron skillet if you don't have a paella pan?
Hello. Yes you can, I would just watch the temperature very carefully. You want to develop the crust but I think in a cast iron pan you run the risk of developing a lot more char than necessary. So I would just be careful of running too high a temperature.
Diggin' the comedy, gotta love a bossy girlfriend!

I love this. Also, can Nurith feature more? Yes, please. More Nurith!
Listen here. My camera person is already busy. But seriously, she will definitely be a greater part of the show!
Where can one purchase the Paella rice you used in this video
Excellent dish! Please note the best Saffron in the world is from Iran. Also, Iran produces 93% of the worlds saffron exports; grade A saffron 😋
Can I used different kind of rice?
Is real bomba or round rices 4:2? What is it if it’s arborrio rice?
That's what we call in Spain, "rice with things, not paella"
😂😂😂 why is it not paella?
I once had a vegetarian lasagne made by Indians. It had mushy peas in it! A lot of mushy peas.

😆😅🤣😂🤣😂 a valencian here. Don't teach what you don't master: onions, chorizo, stock ?!!! 🤭🤭🤭
It looks very yummy, can I use basmati rice in this dish?
You're supposed to use a short grain, but basmati might work
If we use Roma tomatoes, how many fresh tomatoes can I use?, instead of tomato paste?
Hello what is the width of your pan please ? I would like to go and buy one for this dish :)
28cm - sorry for the delayed response
Putting Chorizo de Bilbao in Paella is very normal.
Dios mio! I'm from Valencia, Spain. You could die of indigestion from eating so many ingredients at once!!!!
Pobrecito!
la merda de arròs en coses que fan estos ajajajajajaja
Bueno será más para mí! 🤣
Good luck
Is it one thigh for person meaning this recipe is for 6 people? Can you confirm or it for12 guests as it’s 12 chicken half pieces and 12 shrimps?
do i need to clean the rice before adding it to the pan please ?
Hi there. Not necessary to clean the rice as you want the starch build up in this case.
thank you ! your video is.awesome ❤and im going to make this paella step by step for my girl friends family when they visit next month from tenerife , ill let you know how it goes .@@CRAZYGUYKURTCOOKS
You didn’t show us the crust on the bottom of the rice!
please post an actual recipe for paella
Hahaha so funny
Doesn't the squid overcook as it's in the pan from the the start?
Very yummy 😋...just express mail it to me...😅kidding can’t exactly trust mail time now, but it looks amazing.
It’s on its way! 😜
they pronounced the dish wrong both times
What’s the correct pronunciation? You tell us.
@@mohuasendasgupta5799in the video it is pronounced “payela” while it is correctly pronounced “pah-eh-ya”
You don’t put chorizo in.
The LL’s are silent.
I make mine with chorizo, the grease adds a lot off flavor to it.
please buy a camper van and follow me (literally) on my world trip - I need a chef with your style - great show you make!
I would love to. Where are you travelling now?
CHORIZOOOOOOOOO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONONONONONO!!!! VERY VERY VERY IMPORTANT!!! CHORIZO NOOOOOO!!!

A proper paella does not have both meat and fish in it at the same time

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
We see more of the cook than the actual cooking.
What a shame......!!!
Buff que mala pinta 🤐
Authentic paella does not have chicken.
Not true, Valencia’s use rabbit or chicken. Regardless, this is a delicious version in its own right!
Not authentic.
Everything is more or less right, except the chorizo.
Both pronunciations of the dish name are wrong

Thanks for sharing.
who gives a sh** if he pronounced it wrong. Looks amazing.

La paella no lleva pimiento chorizo cebolla además que no habláis español llamáis paella a cualquier cosa deberías tener más respeto
please....please, dont name that ''paella'', classic dish HAHAHAHAHAHAH none sense
