First I thought it was stir veg , in Kannada (Karnataka, India) we call Pallya. After you added rice the recipe similar to PULAO or PALAV
I'm from Spain , Cartagena ; and that's not exactly the vegetable paella , but looks pretty good . Over 10 ,i give you 7'5. It's just my opinion ,sorry and thanks.
you added chicken broth then kept calling it vegetarian
This isn't a traditional combination, but it looks really good. Cauliflower is my favorite vegetable and that also helps.
Excellent recipe. I have retired to San Miguel de Allende, Mexico & always felt Spanish paella was a bit bland. I decided to make a Mexican paella by adding 2 sliced jalapeños & chili flakes. I also substituted zucchini & artichoke hearts for the beans. Fantastic result! Thank you! Jim
I just finished watching this on TV. I love most vegetables, & yet am so delighted to see how this turned out in the end.
Absolutely stunning to look at, AND, I can almost taste it. Seriously.
Becky, what a perfect selection of vegetables to create the perfect 👌 taste, overall. Amazing.
I live in the midwest, where most people eat meat constantly. I'm not like that anymore. I'm a near-60 year old woman.
I cannot wait to prepare this for myself, as well as two out of three of my adult kids. I am looking forward to showing off this gorgeous dish.
And, IF anyone would be happier with meat, that can be done, simply add some sicken strips, etc. But, not for me. Thanks so much, Becky. ✅ 👍 👋
Do you lose anything in making this paella on the stove instead of over a wood fire?
Funny you actually "cupped" cauliflower. I mean the recipe will be ruined if there were a few more florets.
Really measuring the cauliflower lol
👍👍
I tried this and got a pleasant result. Realistically, how much flavor can you hope to get from white rice, cauliflower and butter beans? These ladies are enthusiastic about a not–so-very-robust dish.
I watch this show everyday 🥰
Is there any substitute for saffron?
I have recently become fascinated to find that almost every cuisine has a dish that breaks down to: beans and rice. Glad to have a Spanish or possibly American Spanish dish checking in on this.
You gotta just insist that people get scales for their kitchens, 2 cups of cauliflower is a nonsense measurement! It's like calling for 3 pinches of tomato paste
I really appreciate when you give recipes for us vegetarians that are also going to enjoyable for meat-eaters. Thanks.
AK, HLLO,,so INALLY, you all are back to the cooking studios, ,,BECKY, il’l try this out, as I also,love cauliflower, , THANKS,,,,,,,,,🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
This looks good! I’m always looking for more vegetarian recipes. Will be adding this to next weeks dinner menu. 👍🏻
What a great vegan recipe
Thanks for showing this vegetarian paella
Oh that looks good! It would be great with some shrimp, pork, or chicken too! 💕💕💕
I wonder how this would be with a seafood stock instead of chicken broth…
How great must dinner parties at Becky's be? She just makes everything look so good!
Hello ATK
This I can get into this dish.. thanks for sharing
Salutations from California
Why doesn’t she spread the salt around ?
I'm making this for dinner!
Looks delicious!
Man, I love this show.
Yay! Another veggie dish!
Under Bidenomics, can't afford cauliflower…
Yummy! I’m going to have to try this! I can’t wait! Thank you!
I agree. Adding a quart of chicken broth would make a great vegetarian recipe 😂
Looks so delicious
Why?
I love ATK. This Paella however, NO.
