Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and do not stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
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.
Diets, allergies and planning
Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because each paella is cooked in its own pan. A few tips:
- Share the timings for food
- Include soft drinks and water as well as alcohol
- Collect dietary needs when people sign up
- Check the building or venue allows live cooking
We arrive at the agreed time and follow your site rules.
Bar staff and sangria on request.
Why choose live paella in Windmill Hill?
