Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.

Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.

Common questions in Asheridge

Do you cater in the Chilterns National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and cooking, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.

How far is Asheridge from London?

Roughly 28 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

How much paella per person?

Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a little extra built in. Give us accurate numbers for the best result.

Can the paella be cooked in a hall?

Mostly outside or under an open cover, because we use gas burners. Some venues have suitable spaces; we’ll check with you and the venue.

Can you serve tapas as well?

Yes, and it’s a popular combination. Tapas go out first, then the paella.

What happens if it rains?

A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We will talk it through before the day.

How long do you need on site?

It depends on the menu and numbers. We agree the timings in advance.

Can you cook at our office?

Many offices have a courtyard, terrace or car park that works, subject to the building’s rules.

How the day works

Watching it cook is half the fun. We start with the sofrito, add the stock and saffron, then spread the rice across the pan and leave it alone to cook while your guests chat. In Asheridge, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:25pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. Tell us the date, venue, headcount and timings.
  2. You get a menu, a price and documents.
  3. Access and set-up are agreed with facilities.
  4. We cook in front of your team and serve on time.
  5. We clear our area and leave it clean.

Preparing for the day

  • Leave space around the cooking area
  • Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
  • Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
