Paella is the most typical Spanish dish, originated from the Valencia region, although it's cooked in different ways all over Spain.
The main ingredient is rice, and you can have Paella de Marisco (seafood), Paella de Carne (meat), Paella Mixta (meet and vegetables, or even meat, vegetables and seafood), which is the best one! In a mixed paella you will find Squid, Prawns, Cigalas (not sure how that's called in English), Mussels, Chicken or Rabbit (commonly eaten in Spain), artichokes, peppers. Some people use peas or chickpeas too.
Paella is cooked in a special pan called "paellera" which is massive and takes up the whole cooker, and some families will take it to the table and eat it without dishes or cutlery, just using the shells of the mussels.
Once cooked, it must be left to rest for 10-15 mins covered with some Newspaper sheets and ideally you should get a mildly burnt crusty layer on the bottom, "el sucarrao", the best bit of the whole dish!
