Spanish paella is usually nicely greased with good olive oil and is often seen with several different fish, squid, mussels or lobsters. We have saved a little on the oil, but you can turn it up if you like. Paella gets some flavor and color from saffron, which is absolutely essential for the paella to taste and smell right.
