Pork Feast Paella is a dish based on arroz de matanza, a recipe from days gone by, when no one had a fridge and you had to use the whole animal every time you slaughtered one. Any cut of pork can be used in this paella—just how it was made back then.

This recipe was excerpted from 'Paella' by Omar Allibhoy. Buy the full book on Amazon.
