Most continents have a rice fish that is similar to Paella (Catalan pronunciation: [paˈeʎa], Spanish: [paˈeʎa]) . The Hispanic countries have "Arroz con Pollo"; the Asian countries have "fried rice' or "chǎo fàn"; West Africans have "Joloff" rice; and Americans have "Jambalaya" -- a Cajun and Creole dish that is popular in Louisiana!
The art of making a rice dish that comes out perfectly is an art that requires practice over several years.
Slate Magazine presents at the link below, "Paella by Alberto Herraiz".
I have not yet tried the Paella recipe by Alberto Herraiz -- it looks appetizing! I plan on testing it and will post photos of my version when I finally get around to it.
