Should I cook it myself?

Some hosts like to cook themselves. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.

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. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.

Planning the cooking area

The right spot keeps things safe and helps the paella cook evenly. We need:

  • Flat, firm ground for the cooking area
  • Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
  • A safe distance from anything that could catch

Bromley Common is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.
