Paella is an aromatic Spanish dish of rice, saffron and vegetables, often with a ‘hero’ ingredient like seafood, beef or chicken. It’s traditionally cooked and served in a large shallow pan, known as a Paella. Nourishing, vibrant and without pretension, paella has held a place of honour in Spanish homes for centuries and is one of Spain’s most famous cultural exports, enjoyed by foodies all around the world.

Each Paella meal is being produced and manufactured locally at a kitchen in Petone, Wellington and there are five Paella favours: Chicken, Beef, Vegetarian, Lamb and Seafood. The product’s packaging is biodegradable.

The first Paella were cooked at the beginning of September 2019 and sold from New World Chaffers (City) on Wakefield Street Wellington. They’re now available at selected supermarkets and service stations throughout New Zealand.
