Directions
*Not only is paella the name of the food, but it is also the
name of the vessel in which the food is prepared. In lieu
of a paella pan, a frying pan or Dutch oven will do.
In a large pot, in the oil, sauté the onions, garlic, and
bell peppers for about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, rice, 1
cup of the stock, and the vegan white wine. Cook slowly,
uncovered, over medium heat until the liquid is mostly
absorbed. Add the remaining 3 cups of stock, saffron, green
beans, garbanzo beans, peas, olives, paprika, and salt and
pepper. Cook for 20 to 30 minutes.
